Question

How about Dave Shaeffer? I don't know if he was ever on the forums, but I think he was on the mail list. Last contact I had with him, I think, was back in 2002.

Ernest - https://rennlist.com/forums/members/12681-ernestsw.html I feel that he will be back in the game soon. He's posted in the past couple of days though. DFW crowd misses him.

Another Ernest - https://rennlist.com/forums/members/14251-ew928.html Seems to be logging in, but not his usual talkative self.

Are we sure we're (and by 'we' I mean 'Andy') not mistakenly referring to the memoriam to Phil Tong Sr. on the homepage of http://www.928s4vr.com/ ? Sure hope so....

Would love to see one of your excellent write ups for torque tube bearing service. Thanks for all the other write ups too...not sure if I could have done all my own work without them.

I saw Dan Bise at the last Motor 4 Toyz (2009) in Woodland Hills. His 928 took a dump, and he had to let it go a couple of years ago. If I am not mistaken, he is now driving an Audi, not sure which model. Dan is a great guy and fun to be around

I heard from Phil last about 2-3 years ago. He used to live nearby in San Francisco, but moved to Hawaii about 5-6 years ago.

Also, sorry to hear Dan Bise appears to have left the 928 fold. He used to drive all the way from LA to go on some of our Norcal funrides, and he and Keith Widom did an incredible job on the early Sharktoberfests.
