Glen, I would really like to be there to meet some Minnesota 928'ers but this is going to be the first halfway nice weekend up here and I need to get all the fluids changed on the Sharke before I take it out for a spin. Please post if you plan another one. Have a great time and I'll see you next time.

I cannot access that link on this computer - care to share the route? I need to burn off the gas in my tank so I've been thinking about an all day road trip this Saturday. I doubt I'll be able to meet up with you guys at the start, maybe somewhere along the way?

Sorry, didn't check that e-mail account
It looks like I'm about 300 miles away from the lunch meeting spot. What kind of "big city" traffic will I hit during that run? If it's all clear highway, that's a four hour drive and do-able.

On a Saturday in Minneapolis? There won't be a traffic problem but there's road construction in some places. I think it's clear, though, if you come in 94 and swing around The Cities on 494.
It'd be great to have you join us!

We had 9 cars for a great run this morning. 8 928s and one doofus in a white 944. A couple of hours of high-energy driving and good times with the local crew.
One car did end up getting flatbedded, but that'll be fixed.
No wildlife was injured this time, but not for lack of opportunity.
There may be a drive next month and there is a dinner party planned for June.

I have no doubt that Ramon will be back on the road in no time.
He stepped in it coming out of a dead stop and a big (and I mean big) puff of blue and white smoke came out. Compression gone.
I have a video of him trying to turn it over on the side of the road. He was driving an 82. Thoughts from this group will certainly help get her fixed sooner.
