Leaving this afternoon heading down to New Jersey to see my sister and her family. Will stay overnight and head out tomorrow to VA.

Where are the NJ/NY guys meeting tomorrow? I'll be in Montville, NJ tonight.

BTW Sean - I am bringing my old k-jet injectors to hand off to you to take back for cleaning if that's ok? You had mentioned last spring that you clean them. I bought Roger's MB shorties, but I do wish to keep the originals so long as they are ok.

Attractive, no? No! Who cares? I'll be there. Actually I think I have to put the hatch spoiler back on to keep the hatch glass in place... Details, details...
Sorry, man, I'll have you beat in the "ugly duckling" department...white damaged front bumper, gold fender and hood, silver rear bumper...on a red car...I think my wheels will make up for it though...

Hey Folks! WOW am I Psyched!

I've been through a rough 4 - 6 months dealing with a Father battling cancer. I lost him 3 weeks ago. Unfortunately, haven't been thinking about the 928 much. Finally the date clicked for me this morning and I checked back in to the Renn... there it is, FRENZY! YEAAAAA!

This will be a HUGE help for me! See everyone at the bar or the parking lot (Lets hope it goes better than last year!!) tomorrow!

Oh crap, better start charging that battery now, oh, and its probably got cobwebs and dust all over it, might be a late night!!

YEA< YEA< YEA!!!

I just put the new non-sport seat back into the passenger side of Jake. He hasn't had a long trip for a couple years, so this should be great.

We're leaving tomorrow around noon with a short stop north of Philly. I expect we'll be in the area around dinner time. I'll be the ringer in the Guards Red 951 with the 'FIELD ARTILLERY' decal and the license plate that reads 'ADJ FIRE'.

Where is the Friday dinner meet-up?

Edit: NVM, found it!

Same here...for some reason, unfinished cars draw a lot of attention. I have noticed this at other car shows as well. In fact, I once took my '71 Pontiac to a Pontiac-only show, and won the "diamond in the rough" category. I have a big trophy to prove it!

I have only driven my 928 twice on public roads so far...about 50 miles total so far... Sterling, VA is about 45 miles from my house...of course my odometer and speedo don't work...
