Alvin-----So the 02 Turbo had some issues?I was told it was a well sorted ,low mileage Turbo.If they have a close ratio 5 speed as mine does,they have some weak Porsche sincros that go bad almost when they were new.
It is a kick in the pants to drive.Nothing up to 3800 RPM,then hold on.The turbo kicks in and your off.Nothing like a little Turbo lag.It has 170 hp,40 more than a TII.It only weighs about 2200 lbs.They never imported these to the States

Have fun guys. The Row should be a fun and nice meet. It's getting closer to year end, and I still work on the weekends. Will try to catch up with you on a week night some later time....

Hey Alvin,

It might be that summer/fall is winding down, and maybe a lot of the folks got their "car" time in last weekend at ALMS/Laguna, and this weekend is "family" time, hehe.

Nonetheless, I was a little late to this post....Let me know when you guys do a week night again (maybe a meet/dinner/karting on the next round as it's getting dark earlier now)

Mike -

Sorry that I haven't responded sooner about meeting for a drive to Santana Row. I'd be more than happy to meet in Moss Landing (or even a little more north - there's a Park-n-Ride at the Salinas Road intersection which is where I come into Hwy 1.

So, are we still talking about the 10th of November? I'm OK for that Saturday if the weather is nice. No can-do on the 3rd - driving the car out in Contra Costa county with another group of Porsche-philes.

Ray,

I'm in Danville - shall I meet you outside Whole Foods parking lot (Peets Coffee) and we can jump on the 680 down to Fairgrounds to pick up Mike and his 997S?

What time is this Santana Row thing anyway?

I'll see yas at SR on 11/10 in our Carrera proudly wearing 2 weeks worth of daily driving grime (the car, not me).

PS 11/10 is the 232nd Birthday of the Marine Corps, so I'll be wearing something jar-heady!
