What if a car breaks on the track? Will we have a 944 fest repair crew?

Since I'm tow the car in the trailer I'll have all the necessary tools for quick repairs - large hammer, pry bar, duct tape, cooler, etc.

Since the clubsport wheels came on the turboS w/ big reds factory, im thinking they should fit.

IM bringing loaner helmets for those w/o a helmet Wes, so no need to run and get one if you dont want. PCA is lending us theirs.

The turbo S did not come with big reds. It came with larger 928 S4 brakes.

SUPPORT GROUP! SUPPORT GROUP! I don't want to do the track thing yet since this is my daily and my ride home. I will prolly be addicted and want a track day sometime after the fest. Are the loaner helmets big? I have a huge noggin.

Loaner helmets are for people w/ big heeeds.

I have a loaner Snell M95 helmet which IIRC still meets specs for this day. I believe it is an XL and I used it for snowmobiling. Pretty nice helmet actually.

WES, you can borrow my G-Force helmet which is a medium if we are in seperate run groups (not sure if that will be done or not?) I bought it from Saferacer for a great price.

Thanks, Dan for bringing the PCA loaners. I have an XL and a smaller one spare too, I'll bring them all. I'd recommend all registered drivers get their own helmet if able, those who just want a ride can use the loaners. When you "borrow" a helmet and wear it for 3 or 4 hours of hard sweating, it becomes a personalized item, if you can imagine. (Kind of like underwear)
There are going to be two run groups, those with 3+ schools and those with less. There will be about 20 cars in each run group, so we won't have much traffic and lots of track time for everyone.
