Great, that makes two of us. No Diane has other commitments so won't be coming. She said to say hi to you. I also need to pass on the photo CD from RRIII to you.

See you tomorrow,
Constantine

Constantine, I'm happy to hear that you will be able to make it. Will your wonderfull wife be attending as well?

See you there.

Snared a room at the last minute at the flophouse next to George V's restaurant; so I will make it down Saturday morning and stay the night.

See you all soon.

Thats good to hear Joe. Last night, George V. and I were wondering aloud if you were going to make it.

Default Designated decouy.....

We're headed over in a few minutes. Should clear the area of speed traps by the time I get there, I'll flush 'em out, (I'll just let Miss Lily lead)
It's only 45 minutes away so we'll get the locals busy for ya
Ross is still MIA - Starting to worry about the young man......
We'll be in the Silber $1,000 928 beater - Didn't have enough time to install the newly rebuilt 911 engine properly, after taking a year and a half to build it, I'm NOT about to rush things......... We tried though

Regrettably, Doreen and I will not be able to make it this year. Too many technical issues with the RV, including a propane leak which cannot be ignored. We'll shoot for the 12hrs and see what happens. Best to all and a safe weekend. George

p.s. take some pics of the touring and revelry. Late

Looks like the only 86 S/c in ?Florida will not be making it to the event.
I removed my intake to clear up a leak and when putting it back I used Honda bond on the bottom of the gaskets and let it dry over night. Needless to say this was the wrong thing to do, I thought I just had the leak on my front tube. Once I re-pressurized it the back pass side is now leaking. So I need to remove the whole thing again and start over.

Alright - track side reports
112 is in the lead -
no - he's being past on the straight by 720,
no - he's being past by 117,
Oh Jeez - did you see that!
This sucks - not one 928 out there racing!
I guess we have to join the ranks and start building the 86.5 for the occasion I may be to old to fly anymore - but that's just one more reason to have kids - I'll put them in the danger zone
Hey Mike - leave some for me

A bunch of us 928ers tried out our driving skills yesterday eavening. There is now a very cool Kart racing area at Sebring. There will be pictures posted of us in our fire suites and helmets at soon as Mel gets back home. We had a blast. Those Karts were really fast. I wouldn't be surprised if some people did it again today.

Did anyone get the pictures of your spin-out.....
Or do you save those for private viewing

The race is on!
