I dont think im gonna be there either. I scheduled off both of these days 2 months in advance, but they decided to give it to the girl who works with me who scheduled it off 1 week in advance. My only hope of going is if they re-hire somebody they fired to cover me.

I see Pete fairly often. I'll call him up and see if he'd like to go with the group I'll be travelling with (Dustin Thurston, Jerad Dennis, Stephen Magown, etc). If you read this, Jeremy - you busy tomorrow night? How does Mexican sound? I'll get hold of Pete too.

Edit - Just talked to Pete. He has some other things going on the weekend of the fest and can't make it

i plan on going but might have to back out.

I have a one month road trip on my hands and will be leaving on july 27, and wont be comming back until august 27th.
yes.. going to the west coast and every city in between. I may just decide to say what they hell, and head up to alaksa -never been there yet! after all, i have alot of time between the rendezvous on the 1st weekend of august and the monterey historics on august 19.

needless to say i have to go through this car, and every last bit and piece and make sure i will not have a failure. engine wil do it with out question. my brake pads wont, i can tell you that now.. am replacing them this weekend. what about my tie rods and ball joints? what about everything else? who knows.. gotta find out though.

i plan on making it for one day.. ill keep my fingers crossed.

Micah! I need to call you but I've been busy and out of town. My cell is in the car charging (completely dead) but I'll call you later. Are you at the same #?

Wes, yes I will be at the fest this year. Will be cool to meet everyone.

Good Lord... would everyone stop sucking at attending the 944Fest?? I am disappointed to say that my car won't have any of the big power upgrades that I had hoped to have completed by now (T04E, water injection...) but I'll be d***ed if I miss this year!

Ok, time to head back downstairs to finish shimming the wastegate and installing the stealth-test-pipe. Take care guys... see you soon

ps... Harry, if you don't attend, I'm making it a point to kick you in the face... that goes for you too Joe, Mr.-I-don't-even-read-the-general-944-boards Boostguy951.

I'm in, but my guitar will not be able to make the trip. When you see the "trunk space" (oxymoron if I have ever heard one!) in my 968 cab, you'll understand why. If anyone besides Wade can bring one, I'd appreciate it. Wade and I have been talking, and while I won't speak for him, I am pretty sure he will be there as well.

Regards,

Matt,

I'm really looking forward to seeing you I'm still at the 812 number... my little piece of home, I suppose! Could you PM me your number as well? I'm hitting the sack now, but I'd love to give you a call tomorrow.

Are you driving or flying in? You need someone to pick you up? Sorry I missed these details if they were mentioned earlier. I need to PM Joel and see if he's going to make the trip as well. I haven't heard from him in a while, so he may be overseas. It would be nice to see him again. Matt is hauling the mail up in WA, so I don't think he can make it. Talk about a dude who is on the tip of the spear... he is in the thick of it flying the real-deal.

You find out your base, yet? I wanted to ask you if you had been to www.baseops.net. I use that site virtually every day and they have some fantastic "gouge." Good stuff We're going to have a ton of crap to talk about.

Talk to you later

Micah

Scott,
What kinda guitar do you need? Electric? Acustic? I can get an electric one if need be, i don't have one, but can borrow one.
