Wife and I had an AWESOME time at SF11! This was the first year we stayed the night (Saturday night) and had a great time at the dinner! It was GREAT seeing and visiting with familiar faces and meeting new shark fans. THANKS Mark and Connie and Greg B and Rob Edwards and.....I know there were many, many folks behind the scenes that made it all happen and with Tremendous Success! THANKS to ALL!

Great time! I saw many faces i hadn't seen in years! Adam, Tom, Chris..Rob...Bill...Tim..to name a few. And put a few names to faces..Colin..Dwayne..and others.

The transmission tech session was very interesting and I am finally getting a grasp on the Sharkplotter thanks to Jim and Rob..
Accommodations were great, food was really good and the cars all looked

I hope every one made it home safely.

Thanks to Mark and family, and the rest of the crew at 928Intl for putting on the event again, to Joe for the accomendations...and everyone that attended.

I cant recall the guys name, but there was someone from Australia...There was Constantine from Florida...Hans from Indy, and Jim and Roghaaa from TX....Colin from Canada...the PacNW crew. Its great to see folks make an effort to come out for this event.

I think i logged over 600 miles. This was the longest single drive my car has seen in 3+ years (my last Sharktober fest). It ran like a champ...cruising at 80-90 all the way out on I-15 with a few runs to for Sharktuning/plotter purposes. The MPG computed to 18mpg i believe....( i notice that my Sharktuner no longr displays the GPH figure?...was that a change in the latest version)

Adam, Chris, and I made it home in record time..rolled in the door at around 10:30pm....so 16 hours ...and that included a nice sit down pizza dinner ... Great weather, no issues, and best of all no tickets. Flew by Tim and Cheryl around 9:30 am northbound I5....didn't even have a chance to wave.

Thanks again to Mark (and crew), Joe Fan (and his staff), and Connie (and her beau) for hosting yet another great Sharktoberfest. I can't believe Constantine was there and I didn't know it....dang... It was great to see the regulars..as well as meeting some new folks..... Always a great time and look forward to many more...

Cheers...

Had a great time! Lots of project work going on. IT is amazing to see so many cars with adhoc repair/maintenance activities underway during SF. The available talent and advice is excellent and having a warehouse of parts makes for a fantastic amount of projects to be completed. I personally walked back into 928 Int'l to pick up a few needed parts to complete the Sharkwoofer install no less than 10 times. That makes things so much easier.

Mucho thanks for a great event Mark. Joseph's hospitality and Connie's coordination at his Holiday Inn Express (indeed I felt more intelligent the next day), the super tech sessions by Greg B., and lots of other fantastic events made it super. Kudo's also to Constantine for making the trek from Florida and especially to Paul from Sydney. I gave Erik N. a ride to Arizona to catch his train back to Texas. A great guy and most of all, someone who likes to laugh.

James, sure missed you Buddy. Hope you are feeling better.

Just got home this morning after a long day on the road yesterday so just 350miles to get home today. Was really great to catch up with everyone, one of the best Sharktoberfests in a while too.

Joe/Connie - nice job on the dinner Sat eve.

Well another STF is in the books and I think it was a great sucess thanks to all that put it in so much time and effort. Without the help of Joseph and Connie, Rob Edwards, Greg Brown and so many others it would not be the event it was. Thanks to all of you that pitched in to help and came to the event. I look forward to 2012.
And also thanks to Dan H. for providing the beer mugs. There are a few left over which Dan said to include in some orders.

Dan,

I missed you and everyone else BIG TIME! My chest cold is FINALLY about gone! Just in time to be replaced with a serious wrist strain/sprain. I was afraid it might be a stress fracture, but the doc said they can't even pic those up on their X-ray so I will be going in for a bone scan anyway soon so I will have them shoot the wrist at the same time to see if anything is happening there.

Thanks for giving Erik a ride! I was REALLY looking forward to the event and helping Erik get back to El Paso, but alas it was just not meant to be this year I guess!

Dan you gonna make 3rd Coast next month?! I sure hope so!

I missed you all!
