Hey Guys,

Seeing that our beautiful weather is on the way out, I’m posting this to let everyone know of some “local” events that will be happening before June. No dates have been firmed up yet so if you’re interested in showing up, let me know what works for you.

1. 951 Motor Build – This is really for you guys who have never built a motor or are somewhat nervous about doing belts, rod bearings, head gaskets or turbo swaps. This will be a complete build from a bare block (new rings, bearings, gaskets, seals, clutch, K27 turbo, etc.) and will show you how simple these cars really are provided you take your time and pay attention to details. This will probably take up most of the day but may be invaluable to someone who wants to maintain their own car. It also applies to the non-turbo guys as well.

2. AC Day – Pretty self explanatory. I have all the equipment to do a complete evac, recharge, diagnostic, and conversions. I can buy R-12 if needed but the prices are getting up there and I only have about 6 cans on hand.

3. Fun Drive – We try to do a few of these a year and all types of cars are invited. I expect a mixture of p-cars, vette’s, mustangs, and maybe a handful of those pesky rice burners. We will take the back route to Prescott through Yarnell Hill. The drive up will be fun and spirited, but nothing insane. We’ll have lunch in Prescott and have a leisurely drive back to my place for a few cold drinks (not required).

If you’re interested in going to any of these and have some input on dates, post here and I’ll put your name on the mailing list. Take care.

Hey Guys,

I got your PM's and will get you on the list. I got more PM's than anything but between those, the guys who don't post on the list, and the Turbo board, we have about 15 guys up for doing stuff. I'll keep you posted on what's coming up.

I'd be down for both 2 and 3, schedule permitting. It'd be nice to get together with some others from around Phoenix.
