I mapped out the route and its a bit shorter than I originally thought....so we can do two laps to add some mileage.....or take a longer 80 or so mile route down Mines rd!! I'll bring maps for everybody!!

Brian,

Don't wash on my account. I haven't washed my shark in a week (and I drove it twice this past week).

Don't worry I didn't......it looks okay...but wheels are filty...no sense in cleaning them BEFORE a fun drive either.....

Don't forget you bring your handheld radio set to 9-28!! :>)

See everyone there!!

Brian:

I may not be able to make it. Steve is coming over after the run for more AC troubleshooting. If you have time, we can check your fuel pressure situation. We diagnosed Matt's FPR as being the culprit in a similar situation.

Everyone know that base channel above 5 drops the TX power by half right?

Steve: RAIN? What are you talking about? Clear as a bell out! But I'm tied up here at home.

Wrenching still on this afternoon - anytime - no need to call. Steve's AC. Maybe Brian's fuel pressure.

Charley - I think I have your disptick.

RECAP....

It was fun.....all 4 928's showed up Plus Ken Adolf & his 85 (with 3 passengers).....we all decided to caravan over to Bills to check Steves A/C and my fuel pressure....so we headed out Patterson pass to livermore then through the hills to Bills.....It was fun....Charley led the the drive & set a fun pace! Everyone was smiling.....even my friend in his mildly tuned Subuaru WRX that came along.....that little turbo 4 banger kept up pretty good!! Especially in the lower speed corners!

Heres some pics!

BTW..bras are sweet.....its so much easier to clean the car after the drive!!
