Thumbs up

Brian- No worries mate, I have the mapquest printed and I'll call Fri eve, by then I should have some travel times worked out with the help of POP. I'm guessing the LL gates open about 09:30, is that correct Frank?

Also, did you meet with your mates over on the QMII yet? That would be a cool field trip and she's not far from LL.

Frank- Judging by Julie's posts this weekend might be a little lite so I'll toss in a couple of low-impact projects that I have parts for like CV delete, and (hope this doesn't scare Jeff off) some light A/C troubleshooting.

Or, I could just bring a couple of radios for some WOT boost spike testing out on 405

But seriously, do you have a tub/car about to be a tub, with a good batt box bottom for sale? Also a pair of spkr grills w/cracks in the grill centers?

Jeff- PM headed your direction.

Don, Kelly, Brian-

this CV delete intrigues me ????

My Nieice will probably want to go to the beach on Saturday. I am hoping that I can slip away on Sunday for the day. These damn gas prices are killin me. Last weekend my sis gave me gas $$.

Maybe I can arrange to meet with the local people for this job I am trying to get. That would justify ( in other peoples eyes ) the trip.

I was supposed to help this guy on a painting job that would have given me about $200 towards my transmission too, but the customer flaked out at the last minute to just do touchup himself. I hate being a useless former exec with tons of tech skills and no cert's or degrees... but thats a whole nother' story.

@ Frank, what model is the Mrs' car, pre-planning for when she wants a HIVE ... I saw her eyes lite up... looks like a Christmas wish

@ ALL, I will try my damndest to get up there. It's a fun drive too

plus I gotta meet the rest of the peeps.
this time, I'll stop for brews BEFOREHAND !!!... although there were no worries on the drive home last week ( except for that truck that crossed the line on the twisties on the 78 - gotta love the P-Car response )..

Kelly, now the real question.......do want to roll with Jeff, Andy, and myself to pick up Brian in Bev Hills? That would make three 951's ($hit, very cool in and of itself) and an NA with LOTS of attitude? You know you want to.......

Jeff is selecting a rondevous(sp?) point along 405

Hell, I'm A/Cless and Jeff will be lending his expertise so it's a good time to do some prelim troubleshooting.

Brian- Things are shaping up here and it looks like our arrival time at your pad, Baby, will be about 08:45. That means a San Diego departure of (I can hear Andy's vertebra cracking already) ~05:45. Keep in mind those are conservative numbers, especially because highway patrol is like a hawk this weekend, and if we arrive early then so be it. I guess that just means more picop time. Will we get to meet Dragoness?

Everyone, I am really impressed how this GTG is coming together and I look forward to meeting a bunch of local 944/951/928? owners.

Exclamation Struts won't be here until 9/05, GRRRRR

LOVELY! I've been waiting ALL DAY for a shipment that was never coming, because they messed up on my STRUTS. Won't be here until 9/6, GROWL. They offered to refund my money for the 2 day shipping. They had even messed up the email address.

Whatever. Now, how do I get the ignition switch out of this housing, so I can pop it into my car? If I can't do it, I'm stuck with a Ford Taurus - I do NOT want to drive that POC on Sunday!

But she's still going to bounce like a pinata on the right front, until I get the front struts changed. See? See? I try and do the right thing - and STILL it isn't done right, hahah!

If I do come up, after swinging through BH, I'll probably take my neice downtown to show her my old stomping grounds.

It sounds like a great photo op with all the P-Cars @ the BH hotel.
