Helen and I are sitting at the lobby bar. Where is everyone?

How are we supposed to hook up with other 928OCers? Front desk had no info.

I posted a few pages back about Priceline.com where I got 52/night at the Hilton. You might give it a try. You can't pick the hotel but you can pick the zone and star rating.

See you all tomorrow

I envy you guys... I'm still at work; have to finish labeling my products tonight, pack everything, etc... I have a feeling I won't get much sleep until I'm in the plane.

OK, I got us a room so now what about registration? I guess I'll just email the form and use Paypal unless I hear otherwise.

I'm trying to connect with James and his bunch. I should pass by Austin around 10:30 to 11:00 and will call James to see where he is.

"weird ones" I like that

soccermobile is a big step up from us. I'll be driving a rented van and James is in a RV

Looks like the first folks are already trickling in tonight. It was great to talk with everyone.

Yea, but I have a GT3/4 928 Race car PUSHING IT! LOL!

I am REALLY hoping to be on the move by 10:30, but we will have to load up one of the cars in the AM and WHO KNOWS how long that might take...

Alright, I'm here in Dallas. Vaark and I are going to get up early to drop one of the cars off probably 10 o'clock. That's too early for beer so I think I'm going to go back home, clean up my car from the trip, and hope to be back out there a little after lunch time with a shinier, and less bug covered 928. Look forward to meeting all of you tomorrow

Thanks Don...I think we will be good, but keep an eye on this spot! Not sure what tie downs they have supplied us with and if they will like the wheels/tires on a 928...
