Agreed! I am looking forward to more NOR track time, too!

I'll be there, and hopefully for the DE if I get the turbo apart/back together in time. I haven't been around Nelson's in like 4 years...

My wife and I will be there again this year. But like Joka stated, we've got the fest and then 3 weeks later the Porsche Parade in SLC.

Doug, bring the Turbo and any parts on the trailer. It'll be road worthy by Sat AM! Last year Sam's fuel tank was dropped in 30 mins or so. Brian (Parts guru) and the guy from the Cincy area (if I remember correctly) tore into it like they were winning a bet. Awesome to watch.

The ace in the hole is Joka. As soon as you pull out a wrench, he'd be flying out of his lawn chair and diving in. This is just a hunch....

Ted,

I'm pretty sure Doug's not lacking in helpers or motivation, I think it's the "while I'm in there..." bill that's keeping him from going crazy with the turbo car. But I'll tell ya, his S2 sounds great and the track car should be running by the end of the month.
