I'm 90% sure I'll be there, I just spent a **** ton of money on parts too, new turbo twist wheels, porkensioner, wp and tb, new leather race seats, ball joints and tie rods, and a nice fresh coolant tank to top it off.

As close to 100% as I can be. My wife already booked a room so we will be visiting the Rat's place on the Saturday.

Hey Shawn-
I might happen to be in the area then -- IF a sail boat race in CT falls through...
No P-car there, tho.
Hmmm. . .

Shawn-

A friend is retiring (at an early age, I might add)...
He and his wife have been inviting me for a couple of years now.
Need to catch them before they go 'totally mobile!'
Not looking too good for the overnight sail boat race (but I am not pushing it, either)...

Where is everyone staying? Well, I mean, where is a good suggested place to stay... yeah!

Thanks!

I got the engine compartment all done, refinishing the wheels next. So once it's all cleaned and looking good it will surely rain on the 29th.

This is a bit of a test but...here I am? My first post to rennlist!
I Purchased my 86.5 from Austin, Tx 2 weeks ago and am hoping to make Old Town this 29th. I live in Port St Lucie. I had a great trip in the old girl with a stay in New Orleans on the way home. I believe some people on this forum might know the history of this car?. It was once supercharged, is chipped w/custom exhaust, suspension, seats, etc. P.O. of the P.O. dumped a ton of $ in it and it came with great records. Its running great aside from a little clutch chatter. I'm still getting used to the heavy clutch feeling.
I was on this forum like 6 years ago when I had an '80 928. Then I drove an '82 for a few yrs which I sold to my neighbor last summer (I actually thought I could live w/out one).
I am so glad to be back and appreciate all the support that can be found here in this forum. And I am looking forward to meeting some other 928 fanatics! (can't get the car outa my blood - its like a disease)

Jim,

You should really try to make it on the 29th. You will meet other like minded folks from the area.

The p.o. to the p.o. of your car is on the Pelican forum. His name is Mark Robinson.

Default DUTY CALLS . . .

Shawn,

Going to be a no go for me.
Been busy -- a new Children's Hospital is opening in town (today) and I am now recruited and working that weekend, in between my full-time job!
Have fun and remember to post some pics!

We'll rendezvous again soon. . . I think I might be feeling a 'fall drive' in the air again!
Hey -- what's the update on the once every five years pollination fest??

Curious (pyrate) minds want to know!

Best!
Doc
