Thank you Tass and Family for graciously hosting/opening up his barnshop/feeding/entertaining us yahoos. A great day for 928's to gather in scenic North-East.

It was a great event. I enjoyed meeting all the folks again. Dave & Flo were a great host.
It was great that Dave's dad also made it.
NOW who put that mug on Bob's 91GT's spoiler?
Looking forward to next year.

We need to be there next year for sure.

Thanks to Tass and Flo and for another great event at their lovely home in central MA. Tass's garage/barn is to die for! Better equiped than most specialty car shops. A special thanks to Carl of his help in sorting out my clutch and shifter and helping to diagnois my pulling issue. A fantastic day all all around and got to meet a great bumch of guys.

Once again, a perfect Fall day at Tassinari compound. Thanks Tass & Flo for hosting, and the OC for providing the nice mugs. It was great to see everyone - it wouldn't be the same without Carl, and having Ernest there guarantees the event will be well documented. I am already looking forward to the next trip to Wilbraham.

Another very pleasant and successful event put on by a wonderful man and his family! Alot of very nice cars and exceptional people always make for a great day. I was able to recruit one new member and hope others did as well.
Thanks Dave Tassisnari and Flo for opening your home and hospitality to us all and thanks 928OC for the mugs and helping to make this happen.

Default Thank you all !

I'll start out with a big thank you to all who attended and helped to make our 8th event such a great day! The weather was nice and although storm preparation kept a few of our regulars at home, we still had a very nice turnout with about 30 928's and some other interesting rides to ogle.

If I were to nominate a "most enthusiastic participant", hands down the award would go to Ed Standke and his lovely wife Michele. They made an impressive entrance with no less than three 928's, one of which was the long-dormant "Hanson Car" ! Ed's blue widebody car was equally impressive and now Michele brought her own track car which unlike mine, I'm assuming has actually been on a track :>) Thank you Ed & Michele for the huge effort you put forth both at the event and behind the scenes.

If we could have had three or four lifts in operation I think they would have all been full. All day long we had a steady flow of cars in and out of the garage. Some actually got worked on, others just got looked at and admired ( Bob Voskian's new GT..WOW) .

I say this every year but it deserves repeating, thank you Ernest for being our official photo guy! I always look forward to seeing your pictures after the event.

And finally, thank you to the 928 Owner's Club for their contribution and participation this year. We will likely work with them again on the next and future events.

I took some pictures of my own and I'll post them up as soon as I can sort and size them.

WOW, David and Flo thank you for best tech party, was so much fun! Food was terrific, David met your Dad a real nice guy too.

Thank you Carl, Joe from NY, Big Guy with the race cars, Jeremy, Engineer with the Garnet Red Metallic (we got the side mirror blues), Dude with the long hair (had the 91 with a 4.5L engine that screams), Brian (Mr. Clean), and especially my best friend Brad (who worked overtime Friday getting my shark presentable). So many cool cats there with so much great knowledge !

Brad told me this is a 'must attend' show each year and he wasn't kidding. To be able to see the cars on the lifts and then learn from the gurus is great stuff.

Tass you are the man, your garage is the ultimate man cave, can't wait until next year !

Watching this little guy have fun was easily one of the hightlights of the day !

I think he put about ten miles on that shop stool, pushing it all over the yard...

Portia really likes those "low to the ground" humans.

Aahhh…Dave's homemade chili. An equally awesome remembrance!

Thank you Dave and Flo for welcoming us crazy 928’ers once again. It’s a true pilgrimage to us-wouldn’t miss it for anything! Ed asked if I was gonna drive a car up ..hell yeah! Black n Blue. And Dave, Triple 8 has Mud n Snows
It was a great turnout and lots of surprises. Like being underneath Bob’s great find-doing the Time Warp! Dave C. has a thing for bright colors I see, and Carl! Did he ever stop with all the test rides and such?
As seen below, thank you with Ward and Skeeter, the pony. Horse and horsepower….Ed’s blue beast has a little thing called BOOST. Speaking of boost, check out the super clean install on the twin turbo! Wow! And Dave has been busy. Check out the new toy! Next year’s Tech session is on the lake!

Thanks again for the invite, it was a perfect day. Glad we didn’t close the place down!

Great time, it seems like every 5 speed needs the rear coupler adjusted!
Tass is a man of many hobbies and interests, and we are lucky 928s are one of them.
Ed Standke is a genius, and to have him there with us was a real treat.
Great to see EW, and most all the guys that make the event every year.
