Kurt - please just ship it back - group use sessions are great, but I'd rather not have it loaned around locally - takes too much extra time and risks loosing track of it.

All - Please plan the basic logistics of group use sessions in advance, who's interested, whos got what tools, where to host etc - plenty of prep to do in the planning, drilling/dremmelling out phase.

Would be close, but maybe we could get it to Sebring on time...

Hello Florida Sharkers!!

I hope everyone had a Happy Holidays & a fun safe New Years!

Wanted to remind everyone that a renewed Sebring Shark Shiver is happening
in three weeks on Sat. Feb. 2nd. As in the past, it will be in
coordination with the PCA 48 Hours of Sebring race. Francois Greyling is
attending the races & will be coordinating this year's Shark Shiver. I
know there are several who mentioned in recent months of their plans to be
at the races & would like to see some fellow 928ers while they are there.
Plans are to park on the left side just over the bridge, as we've done in
the past. You'll have to sign the PCA waiver & get your wrist band prior
to entering the infield. For those who know they plan to attend, or are
still considering it, please hit "Reply All" to let everyone know & to help
generate some interest.

Mark had already agreed to turn this around very fast - just a few days & back in the mail - so I think its actually very reasonable to assume it will be ready in time... should arrive to him by Thursday this week...

Should then be able to ship it to Gary sometime next week...

This tap fits all that have the threaded tow connector in the grille area, it doesn't fit the early cars with the connector protected behind a flap in the front bumper (those are usually well protected and OK).

PacNW 928 is ready for our TETP set for March 2nd. at me and Tom's shop.

PM me if you need more info.

First 14 to sign up (on our Yahoo Groups list) gets a free pacifier for their "baby". (I think we're almost there)

BTW, these have to the cheapest priced part to come on any 928 ever.

Adam & Stefan,

Problem here! I don't think the tap is going to make it to you in time for the meet...

Its on its way back to me now - but I don't think it will make it to you for Sat this week since it won't reach me until Thursday.

Stefan - sent you more details by PM

We are working together to get it there in time for the Sat PACNW meet. So far looks doable.
