[QUOTE="Capt Mojo; I don't know about the others but I'm exhausted. Suffice to say for now that we all felt it was very informative, constructive and worth the trip. In fact it was worth the trip just to meet up with everyone. Sorry for the delay but I'll write up a report just as soon as I can.[/QUOTE] Great! Thanks, and looking forward.

I still have a 14 being delivered after 15's have already been delivered. That particular detail feels crappy.

I don't even need a flame suit. I am leaving this thread now and going to other threads that actually talk about the actual car and not the company or its business practices.
Good see ya

Macca....you too! No one has lost sight of your efforts for all of us. I personally knitted a stocking for you for Christmas it will be hanging on my mantel with a little 918 Spyder in it....

I have met Sunil and he is a great human being. I promise you has way more important things he could devote his time to, but still fights for everyone of us! His level of accuracy, politeness and professionalism is unmatched. I can't say enough about the Atlanta group which was an amazing cross section of successful enthusiasts.

Macca - I'm sure your ears were burning because we talked about you quite a bit. The comp matrix was a hot topic of conversation!

Very kind words Cyrek - I just had to quote you because I'm sure I'll never be flattered as much again. That said, I'm undeserving of such flattery but thank you very much all the same.

It was a great team effort and we all played a part in that. It was a great pleasure meeting everyone and, if it wasn't for the fact that we had 'work' to do early the next morning, I'm sure we could have stayed up all night sharing stories.

+1 .... I can't agree more. Sunil is one of these individuals that the minute you speak to him, you connect immidately with him, and it feels as if you have known for years. First class act. Mark

I couldn't have lasted much longer than we did. I think I was in bed and asleep around 2:30 or 3.

For some of the more entertaining "non-business" aspects of the evening, it included
1) Searching the Perimeter area for a 12 pack of Stella... and finding it
2) Being the last group out of Fogo de Chao by an hour
3) Absurd amounts of meat consumed
4) A Chevy Malibu trying to keep pace with a 991 C2S (Cyrek knows his way around a Malibu!)
5) The conceptualization of the "comp matrix" t-shirt
5) Some sweet tunnel exhaust music (NOT from the Malibu)

There were others - but these were some of the highlights. Great group of people. I was totally spent the next day, but great memories guys. Hopefully we made progress.

Thanks Guys! The feeling is certainly mutual. It's a shame that neither of you could be in Atlanta but hopefully there'll be other occasions. It's great when something positive comes out of a negative situation. I certainly hope PCNA sees it that way as well.

Macca - I have tickets for at least one of the All Blacks World Cup games in England next year - coming over?

hahaha! Nice summary. I'd forgotten how late we left the restaurant. It was quite a get together. Mind you, I forgot to ask how come we ended up at PCNA HQ in the early hours whilst looking for beer?!

The quote of the evening goes to Cyrek (of course) -

"You know why Nasa hasn't landed on Mars? - Because they don't have the fu*@ing comp matrix."

Both Andrew and Tim are in Europe this week. Andrew is away on leave this week and Tim is in Germany with PAG. They're hoping to come back to us sooner rather than later on certain issues. Others will take a little longer. I'll follow up with them once they've returned.
