Welcome. If you don't get substantial benefit from Rennlist, it'll be because you haven't looked or haven't asked - both of which are encouraged. As to looking, try the "search" archives link just below the "Post Topic" near the top of the page. Answers to most common questions can be found there and you may be gently reminded of that tool as needed. After a (short) while consider becoming a Rennlist member - it's the best $18/yr you'll ever spend for your Porsche.

Yes, joining is a capital idea! Many of the sponsors offer discounts to members, and the sense of community is just great.

Plus you get this way cool sticker that says rennlist.com. What could be better?

Cheer,
Chris

I have learned a great deal from this forum and have even been able to contribute to others already! What I have saved by the contributions of others have far outweighed the minor cost of joining.

As a brand new owner also, I share your enthusiasm. Welcome to the "club"!

Hey there Bigbpainta, your "handle" seems familiar, have you been on the other BB in the past? I think the Pelican 911 BB. Anyhow, congrats on your new addition to the family!

Where's the pics?
