I'm out this year. I just walked in from the body shop. It was very close to being done. 968 mirrors still need to be wired and the 968 handles are not on yet. Set back after set back. And of course the car was dirty as **** from being in there for the past 3 weeks. Anyways everyone have a great time and be safe on the track. Drink several beers for me.

drive it up w/ no mirrors- we'll stick em on we'll have nothing to do tonite after we get set up- pull it under the canopy and we'll have a 968 mirror/handle tech session. Ive got tools!

- hey Dan- maybe we can have a lap or two in the MB when Erin gets up here Friday?

Hi guys.
Have a great time at Nelsons. I know I did last year!
I am employed in Australia for 3 more days then out of a job.
Scary **** till I start work in Macau and work on getting that 968 I crave!
I'll have some beers and bourbons for you all in sympathy over the weekend!
RENNBAY!!!!!!!!!!!




P.S. Look after Geoff. He's fragile! Or so his Mom tells me!

Thanks Beeg, We'll toast one to you too.

We've got some weather rolling through the area, so I'm getting wet loading up. Oh well, the forecast is clearing tonight, and partly to mostly sunny Friday and Saturday with highs in the low 80's.

That will do just fine. I'm signing off here, I doubt I'll be able to reply if anyone asks further questions. See you all there, have a safe trip heading in!!

Judson, you won't be the only one working to get the car complete up there. I've got a set of Hoosiers I've got to get mounted and hopefully will have time to swap out my sways for the Turbo parts I just picked up. My advantage though is that I'm staying at my parents place tonight so I've got access to a garage as well as a buddy who has a shop to mount my hoohoos.

Thanks again Dan for the fantastic time. Great meeting everyone and putting some faces to screen names. Sadly, I had to leave early to work.

Also, special thanks to Skip Wolfe for letting me codrive his car I owe ya one.
