If you haven't been to Mike's place you're in for a real treat. G

Will do, Chris. I think I will be able to nail down the date tomorrow. Hope you can make it.

I've been in touch with Wally Plumley, John Pirtle and Mike Simard through the 928 OC contact list. All are planning to attend.

We're almost there. Howard Wright has agreed to Sept. 6th and I should have an answer from the dyno shop owner later today.

Perfect opportunity to see what my GT puts down. I'm planning on being there.

Sept. 6th it is.
I hope you can make it Gio and good to hear you're coming Dan.
Looks like we're going to have a pretty good crowd.

I'll be there and likely have another 928 owner with me who has a 89 S4 5spd.

I plan to put a schedule together soon. I need to start a list of cars for the dyno. I was planning to run my three but I can do it later if there are too many since the shop is only 10 minutes from my house. Please send me a pm if you plan to run a car (or cars) on the dyno and let me know how many you want to run. I will start a list on the original post including any that don't frequent Rennlist. I hope that there will be enough time for everyone but I don't want anyone to to be disappointed if we find out we have too many at the last minute.

Would of loved to come up Mike, sounds like a great event. Always wanted to dyno my shark too. Can't make it though cause our son's got his 1st game of his last season on the 6th & we'll have to be there instead. Good Luck with it, sounds like it would be a good annual event. Maybe at some point in the future you could coordinate it around the Petit LeMans too! Now that would be a great weekend shark road trip!

sounds like fun--

I have e-mailed Dad about the event, perhaps he will show.

Mike--

Perhaps you could put your contact info (email address, phone #, etc) here for others to see, and then relay to you their RSVP?
