Darn, wished I could have made it, something came up Friday night that couldn't wait, oh well. Will there be one next year? Great pics, thanks for posting.

Unfortunately for me, I arrived quite late due to some prior family commitments. I did get to hang out with the few people who remained after 2pm and gleamed a few handy tips from Darin/Mark on some common repair items. Real nice to see the shop and the people. JPP's Speedster was amazing to see in person. Looking forward to next year. Until then, I'll see you all at Rennsport IV.

Mike, thanks. It was great meeting you too. As far as that baseball cap goes, do your remember the Randy Newman song "You can leave your hat on"? I hope I'm being helpful here.

^^^ Nah ... Cocker covered that Newman written ditty. From our source of all 'facts' Wikipedia :-).. :
"You Can Leave Your Hat On" is a song written by Randy Newman and appearing on his 1972 album Sail Away. It was made famous by Joe Cocker when featured in the 1986 Adrian Lyne film 9½ Weeks during the striptease scene. It first appeared on his album from that year titled Cocker. Released as a single, Cocker's version peaked at #35 on Mainstream Rock Tracks in 1986.[1]

Our shop is a modest 1600 sq. feet. We can fit about 4 cars comfortably inside at night when we lock up.
This is our little corner of the world.

Nice Pics! Thank you for hosting a great event. I think you should introduce some cool new "must have" stuff so I have an excuse to drive back out. BTW, for anybody on the fence, the FDM turbo mufflers sound great.

Man, what a great turnout! I seriously considered getting an airline ticket and showing up and surprising you guys. I just couldn't work it out. After seeing the pics, I sure wish Icould have made it. Your shop looks great!
