ALCHIE say no more, however on a more serious note; why is there no comment on bringing stuff so as to remove some of the load off your spouses, my thought is that bringing some simple finger food would help variety and divyup work load. I am not a big food guy, I just want to drive. I will seek adresses/#s later. Hope the weekend works out well for everyone!!!

If anyone wants to bring chips/dips, even volunteer to run the grill (so I can be a better host) feel free.
Last year I didn't have time to wash my car before the event............

It's amazing how much time the grilling takes. I also wished I had more time to hang out and see the cars during the last BBQ in August.

Carl I'm not going to be able to make the BBQ the night before the show, I'm helping Greg remove some scratches in his paint which will mean cleaning up and prep late into the evening.

I plan on being at Ricks for the the after show GTG though!

Glenn, can't wait to see your car at the show!

Af, sorry I haven't called, but I'd like to come down Thursday if that's o.k.

Do we have bad weather coming for Saturday? Is there a rain day?

OK, so I've made Fairfield Inn reservations (thanks for the tip!) and I'll be motoring up on Friday, going back to NYCish on Sunday. I'd like to join in all the festivities, well, except the concours.

Who do I call/arrange all of it with??

So many names, so little mental bandwidth!

turbocharged all-wheel-drive Eagle Talon. If you know
anything about those cars.... they turn you into a mechanic...willing or not.

Well, my father-in-law has an Auto '87 928 S4 he has somewhat lost
intrest in, it's gathering dust. Beautiful car. Always garaged
and looks new. He has told me if I want to fix it up and work
on it, I can have full use of it. I'm more into small, nimble cars but
I'd be a fool to deny the fact cruising in comfort in this old-school supercar
is a very pleasant experience.

The car currently makes a loud whining noise when you start it up, that increases with engine speed, so I'm going to have to track that down and do
some other maintainence. The father-in-law had some redneck mechanics do work on it, so I cringe to think what I will find.

Can anyone reccomend a decent 928 mechanic or dealer service department in Maine, Massachussetts, Vermont or New Hampshire. I'm planning on spending a few thousand getting this thing up to par, in any case.

Thanks so much. Hope to meet some of you once I get this "shark" some sharpened teeth.
Roger Wodbury is back???

Friday I'm going to break from the group and run up to Newburyport to pick up a pair of seats. Looks to be an hour north of Boston.

Rick, I believe we will be heading down to Carls GTG around 5:30pm Friday night from the Fairfield In.. I will lead everyone to Carls, and back at the end of the night around 10:00ish. The next morning we will once again meet at the Fairfield to go to the show. My cell # 617.593.0816 lets hope for good weather!!! Hanna may be heading this way. Rick
