OK, everything is lookin' good. Froby944, I hope to see you there! Let us know if you're going to make it. Steve, I hope you can get everything up and running in time, but don't kill yourself trying to get it all done.
Other Steve, glad to hear you're coming! I joined Rennlist after you got buried in law books, so I've never seen you on a run. Whether you bring the turbo or the NA it'll be a blast. I might bring my NA just 'cause I miss pounding that car.
Chris, we need a starting/meeting point, and other chat stops. If you really want, you can lend me your map and I can test run the route, and find good start/chat points. But I'd rather sit on my chair and use google earth... How's your car? Are you going to bring it, or ride your bike, or steal Sean's 968, or...? I've got a spare 944, if you think you can handle it.
Things to bring - water/gatorade, 2-way radios, the usual crap. I don't know if Roger's grill is on a covered patio or w/e so bring sunblock. I'll list the drivers on my first posting.

gonna weigh my options between crooked smog shop and actually getting the car to run right.
i just finished doing the brakes last night, and i'm stopping pretty good now,
.
it's going in on tuesday to check if that ticking noise i hear is paranoia, lifter tick, or an injector or something.
but it looks like i'll make it.
do i need to bring anything?

Well pork is fine as long as it's on the other side of the grill from my steak.
And about the avocados... I don't know, I just don't like them. Why? Why don't some people like root beer or peanut butter?
Roger, I saw a car JUST like yours at parts heaven (well, ohne Andial engine), and there was an advertisement for it inside on the counter. They want $12,500...

Don't worry though, I will try my best to take 'good' shots of any and all people that are within 2 car lengths of our car, front and back. But everyone remember, safety first.

I'm unlikely to make the run -- but slight chance that I'll drop in for the BBQ, depending on what part of California I'm in.

Good stopping points would be the top of Mt. Hamilton and a gas stop where Del Puerte meets I5.
I'm not sure what I'm driving/riding yet. The NA wold be fun to drive since I've never really driven one hard. Are you sure that I can handle the massive power it puts out?

O man, I wish I could go, but I have to get ready for school. A couple friends and I did the same route last week as the Norcal run on the 24th of June. It was nice, not hot either
