Count me in. I'll try and get there a bit earlier too. I like the idea of a larger time window.

Hi all,
Dennis, you've found me! I've been real busy trying to design parts for boring NEW cars!
The 5:00 thing may work, I have to be at Wayne State by 7:30.
Just curious,are any of the "Detroit Shark Club" going to the F1 USGP this weekend?

I got an email from Rally Sport this morning. I don't know if I'll be able to attend - We're heading for Charlevoix the next morning for the weekend to celebrate my wife's birthday.

Are you guys interested in anyone from the West side? I know of a couple of 928s in Grand Rapids that could make it.

Kirk,

Everyone is welcome and the invitation is open to all.

If you or anyone else needs detailed directions I am sure Dennis or Dave can help out.

Glad to hear there are a few more Sharks around than what "we" have seen around.

I just spoke with someone from the Four Greenfields, so they're ready for us. If anyone wants more information about the bar or its menu, you can call them at (248) 288-2088.

Since it appears that many of the people who have expressed interest in attending are not frequent visitors of this site, I was unable to tell them, with any degree of certainty, how many to expect, but I "ball-parked" it at 20-25.

I'm planning on showing up between 6 and 6:30 unless I get caught up at work.

Guys (and gals?):

I just spoke with Dennis this morning and he brought up a good point....if it rains tomorrow, please come anyway, even if you don't want to get your shark wet. We'd be happy to meet you even if you pull up in a Buick! I'll have my shark there rain or shine. This type of gathering doesn't happen very often. <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />

There's a large covered parking structure about a mile down the road at an Art Van furniture store that we could move down to if it starts pouring. Forecast says highs in the upper 60's, chance of evening showers. It's not supposed really rain until after midnight (cross your fingers).

For those of you who aren't familiar with the locale of the Four Greenfields, it's located in a strip mall near a Kroger supermarket and an Office Depot store. There's also a Firestone and McDonalds next door, so watch for those signs and you'll know you've arrived.

Cool

I'll be there rain or shine or mixed, the car is fueled, I've got clearance, I may even be allowed to take an early leave from work, getting there sooner. I hope so, the digital is charged, and the card is clear, so I should have plenty of room for pics!

Say, if anyone who is coming, has a spare alternator shroud, positive (+) engine bay terminal cover, or rear belly pan mount for sale, bring it along, wilya? <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />
