So I asked my wife if she wanted a shirt. She said "Yes...but not orange." rolling the dice that this isn't the year Greg is feeling adventurous.

JPTL is in charge of Frenzy shirts. The shirt details have not yet been finalized, but I can safely say that the shirt color won't be orange.

I'm finalizing the graphics and the production details (shirt color and style). I should have a proof later this week and will post here. As always, if you want an extra shirt(s), order it/them thru the registration page before the event. Frenzy shirts are always spoken for by the end of the day of the event.

OK, I'm in too!

Got a room rate of $84 but had to prepay it / guess I missed the block of rooms but this isn't far from it.

Guess its time to put the axles back on it.

Wondering how it will feel with new TT brgs, sans dampener.
(DaveK9 cautioned me before I acted, dually noted.)

Gents -I haven't booked or registered as I had a conflict that may not happen and am strongly thinking of coming to my first Frenzy. If I make it, would there be time and can I line up some of you to take my car for a free joy ride ? I would really like opinions on how she drives vs how she should be driving. Specific questions are is she accelerating as she should, do I need to adjust the bowden and throttle cables etc - My next project is to do the top end this winter so I'm looking to put things in order of importance.

Also, I would be open to buying a set of reasonably priced 18" rims (like Panamera double 5 spoke) - open to different options.

Thanks and hope to make it.

You still have a week to register for the event. See post #1 in this thread for details. Unfortunately, our group rate for rooms at the Holiday Inn is no longer available.

For future reference for you and for everyone, the event registration and the hotel group rate both have excellent cancellation policies. So, if you are on the fence about attending a future 928 Frenzy, it's much better to just go ahead and do the bookings well ahead of time and then cancel a week before the event if it turns out you can't make it.

Thanks. Look forward to the preview, and finishing my event registration.

Ramp,

If you bring your car to Frenzy I'm sure you will have no trouble finding a knowledgeable person or two willing to take your car for a test drive. We will have a lot of long-time regular attendees there as well as several new people.

Thanks Greg and Stan for the offer. Looking forward to meeting people and the tech session as well. I'm registering today and optimistic I can make it.

Will be leaving from NYC on Friday afternoon if anyone else is around.

Thanks !

Here's a preview of this year's Frenzy 22 shirt (100% cotton heavyweight T). We decided to change it up a bit from the past and go with a darker shirt and celebrate to the OB. As always, the 928OC logo will be the standalone logo on the front.
A shirt in the size of your choice is included with all registrations that are in before the deadline. We try to accommodate last minute registrations and walk-ins, but that's always a guesstimate on our part. So if you want to be guaranteed a shirt, get your registration in before the deadline. Also, if you want an extra shirt(s), specify on the registration page. If you've already registered and want additional shirt(s), reach out to Greg a.s.a.p.
