Default Hooked On Cars Abandoning the 928?

It seems like every time I visit there is less for me to buy. Is Nicole getting out of the 928 business?

I don't think Nicole is "abandoning" the 928, but she did indicate a few months ago that her interests and perhaps her health was leaning in a different direction in her life. She always held a high level of integrity to everything that she said and did for the 928 community and her knowledge is an irreplacable asset. Hopefully, she will still help us out from time to time.

If I remember correctly, Jim (jadz928) from 928 Classics is working with her and selling some of her products now.

No disrespect intended at all. I just hate to see a good vendor go.

If she ever needs help, she should ask here. She can just literally ask anyone to help out on the forums I bet tons of people will volunteer.

I myself too will want to help out to learn more on the non-Accounting GL side of mfg/shipping/ordering process.

I'm a little surprised that Nicole hasn't chimed in by now.

Nicole is 100% 928 24/7 in spirit, whether she's hooking us up with clear lenses or not. Just saw where 928 Classics is servicing some of the market on her behalf.

Hi all:

It is true that I'm gearing-up for some changes at Hooked on Cars. However, we're still working on the details.

I will make an announcement when things have been finalized. Expect to hear more around Thanksgiving.

In the meantime, if you need anything from Jager Engineering that is no longer listed on my site, please go directly to www.garage9.com. Veronique will take good care of you!

Default The Road to Lovettsville

The Fun Run to the Octoberfest in Lovettsville was very great. The sight and sounds of the cars underway was outstanding.
