Welcome. I remember when I found this list. It really changed the way I think about cars and the way I can keep my 928.
Good luck with your new car.

Boston Shark Party is on Sept 6 at Larz Anderson in Boston, definitely the biggest in the area.

Watch for posts here and and the New England section of Rennlist for other events/drives.

Good choice to make a seperate post to introduce yourself.

Everyone here has there own little specialty, and the board itself will aid you in any issues you may have.

The other thing you may consider doing is contactin Jim Morehouse (think that is his name) and getting a set of his CDs.

But again welcome to the shark tank.

Congrats to your new pet shark. Hope you will be successful in training it properly, and feed it a regular, healthy diet...

Welcome. I too also wanted a 928 at a young age. It was 1978 on a side street in Munich. It was the coolest car I had ever seen. I was 18.
Life is good when you really like the car you drive. Through the years I drove so many POSs that I hated.
