Absolutly rain or shine. If it should rain we can still get at least 6 cars under cover to play with.

It should be a nice fall day so I will have the outdoor fire pit going as well as a couple of woodstoves in the garage.

Anybody have the K-Jet injection flow gauges and exhaust tester that they can bring? I know Jay K. brought them last year to do your beast, Tass. I know my mixture is probably way off and I would love to have somebody help me getting it worked out...

I will have my (stolen, temporarily) Shark Tuner with me. And folks can see it in action on my '91. It is, however, unlikely that there will be any way to see it in action on another 928; it is not exactly plug and play.

Default Damn damn damn

I finally have Bertha running for one of these things, and I have to go to a wedding on that day. This sucks.

Hey I hope everything goes well.

I don't know about anybody else but I'll miss Bertha's (and your) presence.

Have err... fun... at the wedding.

Default Could I come as potential owner?

We (my wife and I) only have a 2001 Chevy Cavalier just past the 100k mark with a dent that "will buff right out...." Interested in perhaps turboing its normally aspirated engine.....944 joke there. Anyway, i'd love to come up and look at some well sorted and work in progress cars, talk shop etc etc. I am aquainted with Stan Shaw and Greg Goodspeed and would like to meet some other 928 enthusiasts. If I can get the time off work that is. So mark me down as a maybe. What should I bring?

Thanks

See you all there! I'll be leaving NYC, with a stop in Upstate NY, then direct to Wilbraham on Friday late afternoon. If anyone is planning on leaving Friday send me a PM and we can caravan.

Tass, what time would you like me to show up on Saturday? Is there time for an early breakfast (my treat) for anyone who's already there??? Barring that, if there is anything I can bring or do let me know.

Rich
