I have to agree 1000%. Great cars and great help from the people that make this site great.

Tks to him and all of the rest of you 993 junkies

Cheers,
Geoff

I agree 100%. More than once I have needed help and this forum has come through with flying colors. Not sure what I would have done without it. Thanks so much.

There's been some amazing stories over the years.

Guy named EJ who took on the factory and PCNA; Ray Calvo, who was a curmudgeon with a heart of gold, even if you were from California... Some guys who are still around like Chris Walrod and Steve Weiner... wonderful people.

And some guy named John D...

Oh really - and did Bill order you a set of rs motor mounts the same time as he did, and then drive down to Ogdensburg to pick them up? And did Bill drive over to your house this afternoon to help you put them in? And is Bill bringing in the new belts he just bought from susnset to work tomorrow so that you can have a set before you go to the track this week?!!!!......I mean come on man!!! If ever there was a guy to single out!!!

It's really a great forum, but only because of the folks here that make it so! Agree with Harry 100% ...and nice of you, friend, to remind us how cool it is to hang here

BTW, Harry, where in SoCal are you? I'm in the greater LA area (valley) if ya ever need a hand with anything.

New to 993 and have had an abundance of help from people I do not even know. Amazing to be a part of such a great group. The old stigma of snobs couldn't be further from reality.

Our true beginnings go back to Stan Hanks, father of Porschephiles. circa 1988-89 or so, possibly even a little earlier.

back then, we had der Mayor of Christmas, Bazza, T*d and a host of others.

Default thanks FD Motorsports!

You gotta give kudos to Darin and Mark from FD Motorsports! They spend lots of their personal time just helping out. They don't seem prejudice to what level of enthusiast you are, noobs to old timers, they are always there to lend a hand.

There should be a thread of stories.
