Thanks Sean. I agree too bad we had to slow our row. Man that was fun. I think my OB just now stopped heavy breathing trying to keep up with the S4. Of coarse it's a pic of Jim stealing all the hot chicks.

Had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone. Great first road trip in the GTS. Wish I could have stayed for the after party, maybe next time.




And yes I have confirmed that my car is indeed an authentic GTS. Made it from OKC in just over 2 hours and round trip used a tank of gas and quart of oil. Maybe it was the 1 hour it took to make it thru 3 miles of construction on return flight.

I drove my gold 928 without any interior. Very different I must say. I used a bucket for a backrest, so I guess you could say I have bucket seats. All the wires were zip tied up and the window switch was relocated to the center of the car up near the windshield.

Ur a RedNeck if you drive your car without any interior and use a bucket for a backrest.


+ style points if you sit on a milkcrate.

Brad I just thought about it. When I pulled in after you I wondered why you pulled in so slow I just thought you were trying to baby the shark. It was funny when I put it together that it was just the balancing on the milk crate. I drove mine home from the body shop on one so I know it's a tricky deal. It was nice meeting you. Your car is going to be awesome when your done with it. Jason

Thanks to RKD, Randy and Jim we hade three very very sweet GTS's at the GTG.
Sterling graced us with his presence and his awesome car.
Great S4's and OB's. New members and lots of families.
Zane even got out of bed early to be there 8>).

It always amazes me when you see the hard work that goes into making these cars so special.
Jason your car looks really nice - stop down talking it, its awesome. All your hard work has paid dividends.

Great BS session back at the Tyson WS - thank to all for stopping by.

ROG, was the Horizon (?) Blue car a GTS? I could not see the rear, but it had '93 wheels and GTS mirriors. That is a GREAT COLOR! When I bought my '94 back in '97 there was a Horizon Blue '93 for sale with 6000 miles on it for $62k! Great looking car! AWESOME TURN OUT TOO GUYS! Way to go! Wish I could have been there to add another GTS to the mix! Rog, is your black GTS getting some work done?

The 928 way.
Yeah, right! Ruby's even stronger now...

I wish there that damn Toyota was not in front of us on the trip to my place, we could have had some good curves to play in. Such is life.
C'mon out for Sharktoberfest....then we'll have some curves (and elevation) to play with.

Brad doesn't need buckets in his cars to prove he's a redneck.
