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.

We are calling the start time 10:00 AM on Sat. but we will be in the barn early so feel free to come anytime and hang out with us.

My GT is hoping someone will help me get her brand new Colgan bra fitted and on at the tech session. She's 18.

I have both but you will need to hook up with someone more knowledgeable than I to help you use them. I was going to learn but then Jay came along with his own tools and I took advantage of the opportunity to get it done by the master

I watched Jay work on your beast and tried to pick his brain and take mental notes, but I think old age has taken its toll on me...I remember seeing the gauges hooked up and the gastester in the tailpipe, but that about it...

Well at least you all will get to see a clutch analysis and tweaking on my mongrel 928.

That's fun too!

My e-mail suffered a spam crash so I have been unreachable via email today. If anyone is trying to reach me for directions or the address, please send me a PM and I'll get you the info.

Tonight I put an 85' parts car behind the barn and if anyone is looking for CLEAN parts, this may be your chance. It's a black/black auto with only 36,000 miles on it. Runs like new but suffered a hard rear quarter hit.

There will also be a nice white S4 auto for sale at the event.

You can talk to the owner of both cars when you get here.

Shane I can help with the bra.

Make sure you bring some Microfiber cloths and a quick detailer to wipe down the front end before installing the bra.

Maybe Dave Lloyd will make it if Jay doesn't? Actually Tass' car is CIS....or was....he should have that protocol down-pat!

I'm still in VA, though contemplating a trip up.

Something about the innuendo and the comment that follows that seems contradictory...
Ah, maybe it's just me.

Afshin- did you drop a line to Tony and the SE Mass guys that don't monitor the web and lists' much? Just a thought.

Hey Tass,

I was really thinking this wouldn't happen for me, but now my calendar is clear for the day. I'm hoping to pick up two (!) bad blocks from up in your neck of the woods and this is the perfect opportunity. Unfortunately I'll have to bring the family van to do that (my car is undergoing a tranny operation right now also) so I hope you have an area that I can park the beast that won't make the place look bad. Maybe I can park behind the barn by that '85 parts car.

If you've got room for one more I'd like to join.

What can I bring?
