Dave Lomas ('Ketchmi') at Motorsport Inc. is the go-to 928 guru in SLC.

Just wondered who is there first.

Right now its a 1 in 3 chance we will be moving there this year sometime...or denver, or not at all.

But I think I will be driving out for a week or so in Feb or Mar.

Check out some of his posts. Interesting guy with lots of stories (including a Whitefox one).

I swear that Whitefox story is just the tip of the iceberg and it ended with him getting gunned down by the police. (Story for another time).

He was much more active on the OT side of RL than here and left with Sean, Gretch, and a good chunk of others that liked to play in the echo cha... I mean P&C sub forum before the exodus when Sean made his own forum.

He is generally regarded as a nice fellow and seemed that way whenever I communicated with him.

Bigs is indeed a great guy and very talented man. I bought my MB Sl55 from him and spent a day and night with him and his family 'collecting' it. Not only an MD, but a very accomplished pianist and organist, as well as an outstanding HS baseball pitcher. Those are only some of his many talents.

Gary.

I am in Salt Lake, well really Alpine, I have an '89 5 speed in white and love to take it out on drives with the PCA here in Salt Lake. There is also a "Utah Porsche Owners" group on Facebook that is always doing stuff. The other Porsche owners and the PCA club are very receptive to seeing a 928. You just don't see them in this town. Plenty of Lambo's, McLaren's, Ferraris, GT3's ect. (This is a tech town with lots of new money) But a 928 is rare. I've only ever seen one in the wild, and I got my 925 from him.
Dave and Garity from Motorsports is a walking knowledge base. Plus you never know what parts they may have sitting on a shelf if you need one. Finn from Porsche Lehi parts dept. is a good guy to get to know. He helps me out on parts also.
