We want to camp, so it seems our van will be making the trip as well so there should be a bit more room for transporting things <like spare tires> down.....leaving the P-cars lighter and more nimble for the roads near Mi-Ohio
In fact, maybe our standard route to get to the track should be altered in favor of finding a more driver-oriented passage? Just something to ponder...
We'll trade some emails as the date draws nearer for sure,

I wasn't sure that was you with the first note. Now that I've deciphered your screen name it fits (037 is the serial #?). Sounds good on the emails prior. It might make sense to start a thread (here), as the day draws near, for our SE MI/NWO posse.
Tony K - are you with us?
Dan P - it's nice you've shifted off the 4th of July weekend. I can still do the Waterford Hills thing and join y'all as well!

I offer my residence as a rendezvous point for Detroit/Michigan/NWOhio people - conveniently right off of I-75 just below the MI/OH border. ...and you can witness the mysterious, dust-covered sunroof-delete early 944 that has been sitting in the underground parking garage at my place since 2002!
...eek, I better do a good detailing job on my car so as not to anger the PO gods!
Hey Dan P - cool - not on the 4th - Thanks!

Keep your eyes open to this spot as the day draws closer and plans get firmed-up. We'll start a thread specific to the Det/NWOH Posse.

How about an alignment tent/ area? I'm pretty close on most things but I'd like to get a better handle on caster and exactly what is going on at the top of the struts (it seems as though there is some sort of self-centering action that wants to take place there). Then there is the rear...
