Hmmmmmm.......... Double hmmmmmm........

OK - so let me ask you folks - would you rather do an Auto-X or... Get together for a tech session, show and shine, a "ramble" though some mountain roads, tours and bed and breakfast stay-overs (yea - we are thinking about a 2 day event)...

Any feedback would be great..!!! And yes, we could do either - but probably not both...???

Damn John!! Why September? My car will not be ready for it's stickers just yet.

Humm.. perhaps next year. Oh.. the GTG's, show and shines, and twisty drives are very fun. 944 fest did this and we all had a great time. Although an AX at some point provides the much needed hard running everyone wants to do.

December! I need the Christmas bonus to pay for the last few parts. It will probably be mid to late October by the time some miles are on it and all tuned, but I am not holding myself to any dates. I have not come close to hitting one yet! Work always seems to pull me away from working on the car, sometimes months at a time. Damn them! <img src="graemlins/cussing.gif" border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" />

Much like Hershey, I'll have to check it out next year.

Can we have it over here... as i've said before, my car doesn't swim well!!! I just don't know of enough rennlisters in the area to go do something, except for the one in my office.

Come on people, all of you plan a trip to see me, and we'll go for a drive here!!! Now thats an idea. Matt O has been here before. He'll tell you that it is worth it.

Woohoo

Economics is not part of the plan.

Hey all -

Let's not forget Jen here too... I know she's been mentioned a little, but it's a team running Rennlist. Imagine, Jen puts up with the whole thing, and does more for Rennlist than a lot of people know and realize.

I'd buy John a drink in a heartbeat, but for Jen - I'd buy TWO. (This has NOTHING to do with the fact that John would order the HUGE keg - uh - beer - rather than the normal ones...)

Don't even start with me..... Here is the "short version" of what I repaired/replaced/rebuilt/reworked/rehabed on Jen's previous 951 - all at different times..!......

- Head gasket, Oil cooler seals, radiator, coolant tank, fuel rail, heater core, heater valve, front struts, A-Arms, wheel bearings, left half-shaft, two timing belt changes, alternator, bodywork, brakes, rotor change, rebuilt the calipers, sunroof gears, steering rack, motor mounts, exhaust manifold, fu.... Well - you get the idea.... I did a lot of fixing and a lot of <img src="graemlins/drink.gif" border="0" alt="[cherrsagai]" />

My motto? "If it ain't broke - fix it 'till it is..."

So the truth comes out.. John is one of us!

Good to hear. I always thought you pampered yourself with that 356. We all know they are cake to work on.
