Looking for Fister users in Dallas/North Dallas area
I'm usually one to go with the Fister III (more aggressive) option on a car, but I'm curious what the Fister II sounds like and whether it might be a potentially better option. I've read all the reports and listened to sound bytes online, but nothing replaces hearing it in person. So, is there anyone in the Dallas/North Dallas area that has a 993 with Fister IIs or IIIs?? I would love to meet sometime and hear your exhaust firsthand. Thanks.
|
I know there are some with IIIs but don't know of any with IIs.
|
actually, hearing the IIIs would be just fine, as that's the way i'm leaning. i'll know by the sound if i'll want them or not. problem is, i haven't even heard from a FIII user yet...
you don't by chance store your GT somewhere in North Dallas, do you? ;-) |

I have Fister II's on my C2 and would love to hear the III's in person. Maybe we can arrange a mini meetup.....
|
I have Fister IIIs on my C2. I'm also retired so I am flexible about a meeting time. :D
|
now we're talkin'!! i feel a mini gathering developing... why don't we let this nice cold front pass and then discuss a time to meet. i have a part coming in from germany and the car will head into the shop when it arrives. should be a quick turnaround, so maybe in a week or 2 for the meet? i would hate to show up in my 951 instead of the 993. as we decide on a time/place, i'll post it as a 'gathering' of sorts, if others would like to join us.
|
where is everyone coming from? i live in west plano - close to Park and the tollway.
|
All for DFW meet. Sat AM for those of us not yet retired...
|
I just registered and am in the Parker/Allen area. Would love to meet some fellow owners and especially hear the Fister IIs and IIIs. That is close to the top of the list as the motorsport package just doesn't cut it for me. Hoping this meet will take place sometime after Thanksgiving. :cheers:

Maybe the following Sat weather permitting. I'm in Irving so perhaps we can meet at RAC which is probably pretty central for everyone. Are they still running their special enthusiast weekend events? |
I am in Frisco, let me know when/where!
|
I am interested as well. Been on the fence deciding between IIs or IIIs to actually hear them in-person would be fantastic!
I'm in South Arlington. :cheers: |
I also live in Irving. Saturday mornings are usually good, but I have a commitment for this Sat so waiting until later works for me, too.
I don't believe RAC does their monthly gatherings any more - at least I haven't been invited. ;) They have moved one street over and the facilities are 100 times nicer, but there is no additional parking other than what's out front so it depends how many of us there are. However, it is centrally located and it would be a good opportunity for those of you who have never been there to see RAC. I've also met at 4 or 5 different Starbucks on or just off of the Dallas Tollway in the past. |
I'm in. I'm in Plano and would love to meet to drool over some other 993's. A Starbucks off the Tollway sounds good!
So Rich, how about some pics of this black beauty? Two this month in the area no less??? :rockon: |
I'm in for any Saturday in December. It will be great to meet other DFW 993 owners and hear the Fister comparison.
|
Remaining Sats in Nov are not good. If those work for most, then go ahead w/o me :crying:. Otherwise, all Sats in Dec are fine.
Anywhere in DFW will do, if next to a Starbucks even better. Would prefer early in morning starting anytime between 7-9am. Looking forward to meeting some fellow DFW 993-ers. |
Wow, lots of dfw 993s surfacing! Love it!
While I'm not necessarily invited, I'd suggest RAC also if only because the party/Fister demonstration can be brought indoors in case of bad weather. |
Howdy y'all, so it's a Texas sized meet :) Count me in, haven't been to the RAC in years, who's gonna ask RAC?. Zimms has a big lot as well, I can ask there
|
I'm in grand prairie. Nov 30 I'm free

Zim's works for me too. They wrench on my car.
A Sat morning in Dec is going to be best. |
Zim's on a Saturday morning works for me, just name a time and date...

^ I read that as a ref to the monthly invitation at RAC thingy...

Wow. Now we really have something going here. Great to see that a request for a Fister exhaust 'comparison' has turned into a local 993 gathering. I've only been in the Dallas area for about 4 years and still haven't gotten into the car culture here as much as I was in MD. Will be nice to meet some 993 owners in the area.
Now that we're beyond a couple of cars meeting in a Starbucks parking lot one morning, why don't I ask RAC if we can work something out to use their front lot at their new location. I've been dealing with Hans and Spencer a lot lately and I'm sure they'd be interested in having a 993 gathering at their facility - especially if they don't have to do anything in particular to entertain us. If it seems to be a central location for many, I don't see why we can't work something out with them. Recent posts seem to indicate an early December meet time is best for most. Should we consider Dec. 7th and see if RAC is willing to accommodate us? I'll make the call, if that works for most. If we have continued interest, I can see this being an occasional event. We do have to make sure some Fister II and III equipped cars make it to this event - it was the initial concept, after all. |
i wanted to amend the thread title to include '- 993 gathering in North Dallas'. it doesn't appear changing a thread title is possible once initiated - anyone know if there is a way?
|
rsaBB, dec 7 at Ruf is as good a date as any. All of us would appreciate it if you can contact RAC to finalize. Thanks

Dec work for me..I'm in.
|
Sounds good to me. I'll be at RAC tomorrow and can mention it to them. But Brian offered to lead the conversation with RAC, so I will let him.
There are a few of us already connected in DFW, it will be nice to expand the group! |
December works for me as well. Just say when and I'm there. I look forward to meeting you all.
I'm a Arlington resident. |
Come to think about it, if you folks can wing it RAC may be a better venue than ZIMs. There're road construction right outside ZIMs and their parking lot can be very dusty...
Dec 7th's looking to be the deal. Or I'm good w/ another other Sat AM in Dec. |
Dec 7th at RAC works for me
|
I'd love the chance to meet up with fellow 993 DFWers at RAC. December 7th sounds perfect, but isn't that also Cars and Coffee day at BMW Plano?

Just how many 993 RL'ers there? Wow, folks are really coming out of the woodwork! |
I'm in as well, looking forward to meeting everyone!
|
rsabeebe,
pm sent. |
December 7th at RAC works for me.
|
pm returned bbs993.
|
actually, a december C&C might actually be a little bit on the mellow side as far as attendance. depends on the weather that day. maybe we can plan to make an appearance there sometime in the future and show up with a ton of 993s. i rarely see more than 1 or 2 993s there on a given saturday. i remember the 928 guys showed up one day and that was great to see - as a previous 928 owner. they took up most of a row where the porsches normally are.
|
I don't see much 993s at C&C, at most two (that's including yours truly); so doing our meet on the same day as C&C shouldn't pose an issue.
If as Texas993 said we meet at 9 at RAC, it still leaves much time to check out C&C from, say, 6:30am to 8'ish and swing to Carrollton by 9; for those so inclined. |
Gentlemen,
I just spoke to RAC and they are more than happy to host this 993 gathering on December 7 at 9:00am. In addition to providing the meeting place, they will provide coffee service and we can move the gathering/Fister demonstration indoors in case of bad weather or to hear the Fisters bounce off walls. For those who haven't been to RAC, their new location is at the southwest corner of Midway and Skylane, adjacent to the west side of Addison Airport. They typically use their "front" parking lot (right at the corner) for displaying for sale cars, but they will reserve it for our gathering. I know some have posted that you can attend, but if you can come for sure, please reply (again) to this thread so I can give them a head count. Look forward to meeting more 993 owners!!!! |
Cool, something to look forward to next month - I'm in!

Is this taking place at RAC Carrolton ?
If so can I ask a favor? Assuming nothing goes south the sale of my C4S should complete tomorrow :crying: The car caused it's own demise by being sooooo much fun at DEs these year. It's way to pretty to make into a track rat and I can't offered both so I'm moving on.:( I noticed this on eBay and thought it might make a good starter race car: http://inventory.racperformance.com/...Texas/1388367/ Anybody want to have a look at it for me ? Thanks, Jim |
I'll definitely be there!

Not sure if I'll be much help but I can take a look. I'll be there Monday or Tuesday. |
^^^^^
Brian, Thanks. Just having someone's impressions is a good start. Once the sale completes I'll be contacting them for more details and history. I've been surfing for track/race cars for awhile but I'm been waiting for money in hand before calling people. Jim |

911Fahrer, do you happen to live/drive around the west plano area? there's a red NB in my area that i used to see driving up and down park blvd. haven't seen it lately, though - just wondering if that would be you.
|
I'm in guys !! I'm in katy but I'm sure one of my 993's is due for a long drive :)
Plus I have never been to RAC facility Dec 7th works for me :burnout: |

hmmm. i'm thinking i've seen that red 993 for longer than that, but maybe i haven't. do you live in that relative area? i'm right off of park myself - you might see me in either my black 951 or black 993.

That is my other dream car outside of the 993. I just can't seem to find one w/ <150k miles, w/o cracked dashed and/or worn driver booster etc And sellers are still asking >$15k... |
I tried to get away to come down and join you guys but I have a commitment that can't be changed on the 7th :banghead:
If this was on Dec 14th I would fly down there for sure! |

I am north of you, just north of Coit and Legacy. I think I might have seen your 951. When I first drove into Plano with my 993, a black 951 went past me and waved (you?), then when I pulled into the Dickey's on Preston a Speed Yellow 930 pulled into the lot behind me, circled and waved and then went on his way. All within 5 minutes. My wife, who always wondered why I wanted a Porsche 911, was impressed. She said this never happened to her when she bought a new Ford! -Richard |

no waves for Ford owners, huh?? :eek: time for the wife to buy a Porsche. |
20 cars already. i'm impressed!! should we get excellence or panorama to cover this?? :roflmao:
|
If any of you guys have a ROW 033 suspension or any other combination with a comfortable ride I would love to get a short ride with you. I would be happy to let you feel what my JIC coil overs and TRG sway bars feels like. Without knowing what the baseline 993 ride feels like I hesitate to change my current setup.
Thanks, rick |

well, if everyone throws in $25, we'd have $525 at the moment - enough to cover a set of Fisters. if there is interest, i can work up some special dual tickets (previous life as a graphic designer/artist) we can use and have a drawing at the event. if someone already has their Fisters, they can put it towards another upgrade. interest?
Except, right before you distribute them, can I get the one you were about to give to 13BEEZ? And I'm not playing poker with that guy either! :D |
I'm in for a ticket also, There's a new addition (993) to the collection on the way and that's going to need a set of fister's also:icon501::burnout:

Garage is pretty much done! You know you're invited next time you come to town.
I'll actually be flying overhead during this gtg coming back from Cali. |

I'll actually be flying overhead during this gtg coming back from Cali. You know you could stop and refuel at ADS on the way back. Just hop the fence and join the party! |

Darin,
Super Cool!!! Thanks Carl |
I'm in as well looking forward to learning about the exhaust.

Interesting. I probably won't have a Porsche to drive to this, but I might stop by and look around for a bit.

Fister III
Did someone say 993?
Have been out of the Rennlist loop for a while...time to get right! Have Fister III's (don't think I would have anything else) and hope to be able to attend. Son's National FB tournament starts that Saturday but if game starts late enough - will certainly be there. |

I heard Brian was going to let everyone drive the CGT.
|
i just want to make sure that everyone understands that the raffle will be a 'cash' prize with the intentions of buying a Fister exhaust. if you have a Fister exhaust or are not interested in an exhaust upgrade, it's your money to spend however you would like. just wanted to clarify that. :cheers:

I'm in on the Fister raffle --- one ticket Also, I would like to contribute a PCAR MOUNT to the raffle kitty: Attachment 781842 And .... check out my back-up Fister installation (I never win raffles) .... I now have an MP3 version of the Fister III exhaust sound stripped out of one of the online Fister-on-993 YouTube videos that I uploaded as a special Fister playlist onto my Droid RAZR MAXX HD smartphone. Attachment 781843 I can play it back through my CDR 220 stereo system on demand .... and really crank up the volume .... not quite the same as the real deal ... but not too bad. :roflmao: LOL Bill |

Would anyone joining the meet happen to have a 993 ducktail they would consider parting with??
|
The forecast for next weekend is starting to look sketch...
|
definitely not looking that great at the moment. we have the 'wintery mix' coming in late thursday through friday and then very cold temps for saturday morning - at the moment. we do have indoor facilities available apparently, if the weather does not cooperate, but i fear we will lose the out of town participants if the weather continuing in this pattern. of course, tomorrow it's going to be 75 and sunny!!
|
I'll bring my ducktailed 993. The wet wintry mix may do me a favor since it will mask the accumulative dirt on my daily driven 993.

UPDATE on the raffle for the Fister exhaust - initially, i had planned on this being a raffle for the people attending the gathering, but since we have a number of interested parties who will not be attending the actual event, i'll need to have those funds some time this week for you to be included in the raffle. if you would like to send funds, to be included in the raffle, please PM me and i will send you my mailing address. assuming the event is still held this saturday, i will need those funds asap to be included in the final number of entries this weekend. i apologize for the late notice on this, but i hadn't realized that a number of the people who voted would not be at the event in person. if everyone who voted follows through with a ticket purchase, we're currently at $525 - a perfect amount for an exhaust from FD.

993 Gathering update
Greetings all, I wanted to update everyone on this Saturday’s 993 gathering at RAC Performance at 9am. • I know the weather is causing some mental constipation, but as of now, the event will go as planned. With all the Christmas toy drives and vacations, postponing would push us well in to January. If it’s dry, please don’t let the cold weather scare you away – just dress appropriately and step inside RAC’s facility to warm up. • In addition to being our host location, pastries and coffee will be courtesy of RAC and Office Perks (CoffeeMan, Scott). • There will be 2 raffles – one is for those who want to buy $25 raffle tickets with the prize being the money to buy Fisters. The second will be only for those in attendance and will not require any entry fee. Darin has donated some gift certificates and t-shirts and Bill48 has donated a nifty PCARMOUNT (device to securely attach phone/gps to your car). Thanks to rsaeebe (Rich), who is handling both raffles so please see him for tickets to each. • For those who are into instant gratification, RAC has purchased a couple of sets of Fisters (I believe a set each of IIs and IIIs) from Darin who is working hard to have them finished in time for the event. The raffle winner can use the winnings to purchase one of the sets and RAC has generously donated free installation to the raffle winner!! RAC tech Bob McAfee on hand to answer any questions. Should the Fisters not be finished in time for the event, RAC will still honor the free install at a later date for the winner. • The set the raffle winner doesn’t choose will be available for purchase at the same cost as if buying directly from Darin. Future orders for Fisters can now be placed through RAC, again at the same cost. • On Saturday, please come inside first, get a nametag, have some coffee and pastries and once everyone has had a chance to arrive we’ll do a quick meet and greet. We’ll then go outside for CorrdoBrit (still don’t know his first name) and 97_993C2 (Dan) to do a Stage II and Stage III sound off. Some time after the sound off, rsabeebe will conduct the raffles. After the raffle, we’ll just hang out and talk cars until RAC kicks us out. Again, many thanks to those making this event possible – RAC Performance, FD Motorsports, Office Perks and PCARMOUNT. |
Everything sounds great!! Cold will not hold me back:D
But rain will :icon501: Hopefully it will be a dry cold day:burnout: |
Temp doesn't faze me.
As long as it's dry, or dry enough, I'll be there. All bets are off if there is indeed a wintry mix... In any case, I thank Brian, RAC and others for putting this event together. |
Now I'm really glad I have my Conti DWS's on the car...winter weather is no problem (see avatar.):thumbup:

Someone do the anti-rain dance so water/ice doesn't fall from the sky. Otherwise, dfw may not escape it like we did 2 weeks ago.

here's hoping the weather comes in thursday night and passes through by friday evening, leaving saturday just cold. see below for the raffle tickets for both the exhaust giveaway and the raffles items supplied by FD and P Car Mounts.
make sure you see me early saturday, likely inside RAC, to get your exhaust raffle ticket(s) and your general raffle ticket. |
Thanks guys! Can't wait!

I realize I'm new and jumping in on this quite late but would love to meet you guys and behold whatever cars make the trip. Would love to hear the Fisters...YouTube is great but can't possibly do it justice. Put me down for at least one raffle ticket as well.
Fingers crossed the weather holds out. Please note that I will be sure to arrive bib in hand for any drool that might elude a shirt sleeve. |

hmmmm. i made 30 tickets for each raffle. i may have to consider another sheet of general raffle tickets, just in case.
nearly 30 993s in one spot should be quite the site - assuming we all make it.

Too bad I don't have my LPMM anymore. B/C I need a "quiet" exhaust.

While I know 28 attendance is nothing to pooh-pooh at, but think, just think, if Opo would bring his whole 993 collection up we can double the size of this event... :icon107:

One day :thumbsup: |
Hey All - while I will be there, it'll actually be in a late model Accord as Kate remains in pieces. If all goes to plan - she'll be road ready by month's end but Saturday I'll simply be there to admire and chat.
If anyone wants to take in my Pearl Royal Blue boring sedan, I certainly won't stop them...but this is more about you guys than me. Very much looking forward to meeting everyone. |
What time does this group start?
|
Can I buy a raffle ticket at the event?

OK. I need some advice as to what I should do. I can take my 993 with the Stage IIIs over to RAC this afternoon before the weather hits, assuming they are expecting me and have a place to put it. However, it will be sitting there all weekend taking up space if the weather is so bad that no one can show up Saturday morning.
Or I can just wait until Saturday and attempt to drive over that morning, assuming the roads are not completely iced over. How many of you will show up in your non-Porsche vehicles - those of us without C4(S)s and Turbos ;) - if the weather is only kind of bad just to meet and listen to the exhausts? |
Dan, it just depends! If the roads are drivable, but have any slick on the roads, I will come in the SUV. Obviously, if the roads are closed and impassable, I'll stay home by the fire.
RAC should have no problem finding space for your car. That place is huge! |
since all the precipitation is due to come in tonight through tomorrow morning, i'm hoping the roads will be easily passable by saturday morning. saturday is supposed to be overcast right now, but no rain/ice. i'm thinking the unfortunate part is going to be the cold temps on saturday and little chance we'll be hanging out by the cars, unless RAC plans for us to bring them indoors - which they may plan for anyway and have the large front bay open for us already. that would be ideal.
if necessary, i'm sure RAC will house your car as long as you need. they really do have sufficient space over there. the issue would be for you to make arrangements to get it to them tonight before they close and get picked up. |
I had not heard that about the precipitation ending. I've decided to take the car over this afternoon since I would hate for everybody to show up and not have Fister IIIs to listen to because I was unable to to handle the driving conditions. Patrick had already offered to pick me up.
See you all there at 9:00 Saturday. |
Same story here...I'm looking forward to getting there in my P car, but if ice is in the mix I'll be there in something "less fashionable" :-)
|
I am about 40 miles north of RAC and my Northern facing house windows have solid 1/4" ice coverage.
My driveway is all ice from the freezing rain. I am so disappointed as I really wanted to see all our 993s together. |

What are the odds that we would have a winter storm the weekend of this event!!! Bummer. Hopefully the roads will dry out by Sat A.M. since the precipitation stops Friday around midday. I still plan on going. Not sure it the C4S will be coming or not.
|
I might be forced to drive the new 958 Cayenne Turbo with Fabspeed exhaust. The meanest sounding SUV I have ever heard :-)
But the '95 FZJ80 is a more likely my mode of transport. |

Precip is to be over tomorrow around noon. I'm hoping that will allow plenty of time for things to dry up. |
Well things didn't work out and my 993 didn't make it to RAC this afternoon. Here's hoping we have at least semi-clear roads Saturday.

UPDATE Obviously, Mother Nature drives a water cooled Porsche and it leaked all over the Metroplex last night.
I have just spoken to Hans and we are going to visit again this afternoon after a check of the roads. An announcement regarding tomorrow's gathering will follow so please be sure to check back. |

****OFFICIAL UPDATE****
Here’s the deal. I’ve been driving around quite a bit today and the roads are mostly wet and/or slushy. The problem is there hasn’t been enough traffic today to dry the roads out. Combine that with the hard re-freeze that we’re expecting tonight and I think we’ll be covered in a sheet of ice tomorrow morning. I even drove by RAC and their parking lot went untouched today so tomorrow it will be better suited for some pond hockey than a 993 gathering. I’ve spoken to Hans a couple of times and as much as I hate to do this, I think it best to postpone this event altogether. I certainly don’t think it’s worth risking our precious 993s (996s would have been ok……….jk) when we can simply do this another time. If some of you know others that may not see this post, please make sure word gets around about the postponing. I will get together with Hans in the near future and propose a new date so stay tuned. Thanks again to RAC, FD Motorsports, Office Perks, PCARMOUNTS and rsabeebe. I especially appreciate everyone’s enthusiasm and participation and look forward to gathering in the near future. |
Beyond bummed, but agree with the call. Hope to see everyone in January!
|
Probably the right decision, Brian. Thanks for all your efforts. I was sweating having to slide over to RAC tomorrow, or drive through salty slush in the P-car. :eek:

As much as I am disappointed, it is a good call. It just isn't worth the risk. Thanks to all for the work to put this together. Looking forward to the reschedule. :thumbup:

Correct call given the road conditions Brian, will look forward to a new time for the 993's to get together! Probably couldn't get out of the garage anyway,
there's a TX snowdrift in my way! |
even though we're all disappointed, it's clearly the right call at this time. with the re-freeze tonight, the roads tomorrow morning would be sketchy at best. thanks to Brian for working with RAC and Hans to reschedule this event in the near future. we clearly have a solid 993 enthusiast group here and should attempt additional events like this in the future. i guess our 'lucky winner' will have to wait a bit longer for their new Fister exhaust. the raffle tickets are at the ready. :thumbup:

Agreed! Weather like this we all really need to just snuggle up in front of the fire and give our babys some tlc....

Hey guys, I will be in Dallas/Arlington area for the HS football playoffs this Saturday , I will like to see if some of you guys wanted to hook up for coffee sat morning, I spoke to Brian today and asked if there was any P cars gathering going on this Saturday and he didn't find anything:(
Will love to see some p cars this sat :) |
Depends, are you bringing Vesuvius????? :D
Just kidding, I wouldn't bring any nice car to any high school football game so can't blame you if it's a no. I'm up for a cup of Joe and P car chat. Somewhere off the Tollway, would be cool. Earlier the better... PS You do know you ain't gonna spank Cedar Hill like you did Johnson right? |
Lol, that's what they said last year :) I will be bringing my 3.8 c4s and saving the Vesuvius for the fister gathering , I will be In Town Thursday night for a Friday meeting and the rest of the family are meeting me on Friday :) Saturday early morning will be good , just give me a adreess and time and I will be there :)

I have our company Christmas party the night before, but should be able to drag my butt out of bed for coffee and Porsches. What time and where?
|
That's why we should never get drunk at the Christmas Party it can interfere with cars and coffee along with other more embarrassing side effects :roflmao: At least that's what someone told me once :icon107: I'll post up the time and place when we get it figured out if anyone else can come...
|
Mama's Daughters' Diner, PLANO location 8.00am Saturday.
Let me know who can come! Coffee and breakfast too if you get hungry... they have good parking I got a guarantee it won't be raining so we are covered there :D :D 6509 W Park Blvd it's on the NE corner of Park and Midway http://www.mamasdaughtersdiner.com/plano.html Edit: got the cross streets wrong :banghead: now corrected! Apologies! |
See u guys there :jumper:
|
what's the turnout so far? i think i'll have my daughter that morning, so i'd have to see what's possible. only about a mile from my house though.
|
It's down the road from me. I'll try to stop by, still no Porsche tho.
|
I'm going to try to make it, weather permitting. I guess it will be a preview of Stage IIIs.

Rich, so far just what you see here! Have you taken your Daughter to Mama's before? My kids love it. I like the one down on Irving Blvd better, but this ones pretty highway friendly(and has way better parking). It's one of the few places you can go evenings for home style cooking too. That has gone way out of style....
Vandit, bring it on, maybe Rudy will make you a deal on something you can't refuse :D Dan, cool, I've heard your car before, but since the RAC event got postponed I was really looking forward to it. Hey if it's raining just come in a reg car and we'll eat... 13Beez, I really hope it's sunny and I get to see the 'meant to be' car in person.... |

Well, now we know who's bringing in the bad weather to DFW
I'll try and make it, will depend on weather conditions and previous night's alcohol consumption :) |
******ANOTHER OFFICIAL UPDATE******
I've discussed a new date with all the key players and January 11, 2014 works best for our rescheduled gathering. I hope this date works for everyone and sincerely apologize if it doesn't. As an added bonus, Darin Fister himself has decided to fly in and attend!!! Otherwise, same gig as last time except hopefully without the frozen stuff (repost of details below). • In addition to being our host location, pastries and coffee will be courtesy of RAC and Office Perks (CoffeeMan, Scott). • There will be 2 raffles – one is for those who want to buy $25 raffle tickets with the prize being the money to buy Fisters. The second will be only for those in attendance and will not require any entry fee. Darin has donated some gift certificates and t-shirts and Bill48 has donated a nifty PCARMOUNT (device to securely attach phone/gps to your car). Thanks to rsaeebe (Rich), who is handling both raffles so please see him for tickets to each. • For those who are into instant gratification, RAC has purchased a couple of sets of Fisters (I believe a set each of IIs and IIIs) from Darin who is working hard to have them finished in time for the event. The raffle winner can use the winnings to purchase one of the sets and RAC has generously donated free installation to the raffle winner!! RAC tech Bob McAfee on hand to answer any questions. Should the Fisters not be finished in time for the event, RAC will still honor the free install at a later date for the winner. • The set the raffle winner doesn’t choose will be available for purchase at the same cost as if buying directly from Darin. Future orders for Fisters can now be placed through RAC, again at the same cost. • On Saturday, please come inside first, get a nametag, have some coffee and pastries and once everyone has had a chance to arrive we’ll do a quick meet and greet. We’ll then go outside for CorrdoBrit (Haydn) and 97_993C2 (Dan) to do a Stage II and Stage III sound off. Some time after the sound off, rsabeebe will conduct the raffles. After the raffle, we’ll just hang out and talk cars until RAC kicks us out. Again, many thanks to those making this event possible – RAC Performance, FD Motorsports, Office Perks, rsabeebe and PCARMOUNTS. In order to get an accurate headcount, let's start a new list. 1.

Previous mailed in raffle checks
For the 2 people who previously had mailed me raffle ticket checks, I wanted to let you know that I still have them and they have not been deposited yet. Since the weather looked so sketchy, I held on to them just in case. Unless you would like any changes, those checks will now be used to purchase tickets for the upcoming Jan. 11th event.
PM directly with any questions or issues. Thanks. |

turnout is looking good, but i'm still hoping that we get close to the original 28 that signed up initially.
i have replied to the PMs, but if you have questions about the Fister raffle tickets, please let me know. |
purchasing the raffle tickets
just a clarification on the raffle ticket sales. anyone attending the event in person can buy their tickets from me that saturday morning @ RAC. i'm only accepting checks from people who can not attend the show in person. PM with questions.
depending on the number of tickets sold (@ $25/each), you will either have a significant portion of the funds necessary for a set of Fister mufflers or possibly a small surplus of cash after winning the mufflers. since Darin will be in attendance, i'm planning on having him pull the winning ticket. |

i have replied to the PMs, but if you have questions about the Fister raffle tickets, please let me know. I sent Rudy some additional rennlist nametags, since only 25 were in the first letter. PM sent regarding the drawing...probably need some additional FD pieces this winter...might as well join in. |

993 Gathering update
Greetings all, I wanted to update everyone on this Saturday’s 993 gathering at RAC Performance at 9am. • I know the weather is causing some mental constipation, but as of now, the event will go as planned. With all the Christmas toy drives and vacations, postponing would push us well in to January. If it’s dry, please don’t let the cold weather scare you away – just dress appropriately and step inside RAC’s facility to warm up. • In addition to being our host location, pastries and coffee will be courtesy of RAC and Office Perks (CoffeeMan, Scott). • There will be 2 raffles – one is for those who want to buy $25 raffle tickets with the prize being the money to buy Fisters. The second will be only for those in attendance and will not require any entry fee. Darin has donated some gift certificates and t-shirts and Bill48 has donated a nifty PCARMOUNT (device to securely attach phone/gps to your car). Thanks to rsaeebe (Rich), who is handling both raffles so please see him for tickets to each. • For those who are into instant gratification, RAC has purchased a couple of sets of Fisters (I believe a set each of IIs and IIIs) from Darin who is working hard to have them finished in time for the event. The raffle winner can use the winnings to purchase one of the sets and RAC has generously donated free installation to the raffle winner!! RAC tech Bob McAfee on hand to answer any questions. Should the Fisters not be finished in time for the event, RAC will still honor the free install at a later date for the winner. • The set the raffle winner doesn’t choose will be available for purchase at the same cost as if buying directly from Darin. Future orders for Fisters can now be placed through RAC, again at the same cost. • On Saturday, please come inside first, get a nametag, have some coffee and pastries and once everyone has had a chance to arrive we’ll do a quick meet and greet. We’ll then go outside for CorrdoBrit (still don’t know his first name) and 97_993C2 (Dan) to do a Stage II and Stage III sound off. Some time after the sound off, rsabeebe will conduct the raffles. After the raffle, we’ll just hang out and talk cars until RAC kicks us out. Again, many thanks to those making this event possible – RAC Performance, FD Motorsports, Office Perks and PCARMOUNT. |

Looking forward to this gathering! Anyone available afterwards to grab some lunch? I would love to hang out with some of the Texas crew and have some good Texas BBQ :thumbup:

2 feet of snow here, and wind chill 's of -20...the thought of almost 30 993's in the same place...at the same time, your killing me.

there's also a Twin Peaks at beltline and the tollway that has surprisingly good food and beer and the waitresses are easy on the eyes. |

Somehow missed this thread... I'm in Dallas until the 17th. I guess that means I have to go! Add me to the list please.

this turnout is truly amazing. what an awesome sight this is going to be. the downside - i see my chances of winning a FD exhaust dramatically dwindling as the event comes closer. :banghead:

Let's hope this continues to be Saturday's outlook. Right now, significantly better than the last event date.

This is turning out to be an epic event!
I am flying in on Friday and hoping to avoid the rental car. Dinner Friday night with Opo (Rudy,) bbs993tt (Brian) is picking me up for the event on Saturday, and hopefully I can ride along with someone for lunch :D |
You can ride with me to lunch Darin :)

you might have a shot @ washing again (and re-applying more lipstick) on thursday and then leave it at home on friday. could still be clean by saturday morning, assuming there's no rain in the AM.
i'm hoping for a little clean up before saturday myself, but i'm driving it every day this week. |
Wash...rinse...repeat. It's a never ending process for those of us anal about keeping our cars clean.
|
Saturday's almost here and it looks like the weather is going to cooperate this time. Here's a reminder of the details for Saturday:
Please come inside first, get a nametag, have some coffee and pastries and once everyone has had a chance to arrive we’ll do a quick meet and greet. We’ll then go outside for CorrdoBrit (Haydn) and 97_993C2 (Dan) to do a Stage II and Stage III sound off. Some time after the sound off, rsabeebe (Rich) will conduct the raffles. We'll get a quick head count of those who want to go to Spring Creek with Darin for some bbq. After that, we’ll just hang out and talk cars until RAC kicks us out. Looking forward to seeing everyone............and your 993s! |
Can't wait!:thumbsup:
One question for the local guys, I will be arriving Friday about 3pm, it looks like I'm going to get some rain on the road, does anyone know a Mobil detail guy that can come to my hotel garage and clean my car? Vesuvius doesn't look good dirty:crying: |

Opo,
A couple of other suggestions. Call Hans at RAC and they may have their guy clean up your car if you arrive early. Carlos, the detailer, is a good guy and does a good job. I have a mobile guy who does our "Regular" cars. Salvador (214) 397-6885 |
Brian - We also need to add Shadow993 "David" to the sound off. He has Fister III's with Fabspeed sport cats (200 cell). It will give a nice comparison to those who want to go even louder than Fister's with stock cats.
|
Sounds like a plan
|
Guys, thank you for all the response, I haven't got a hold of Hans just yet, I did talk to Salvador (Patricks guy) he is available but he needs water and the hotel doesn't have water outlets outside the hotel:( also Jason (JDHertz11) offered his place to wash the car, let's see what happens by tomorrow:)
This place rocks!:thumbup: |

This place rocks!:thumbup: You might try calling Forest Car Wash (972.385.1533). They are at Forest Lane and the North Dallas Tollway. They are not too far from RAC. Their website says that they wash by hand. You might call and verify exactly what they do. They are open from 8:00AM - 6:00PM on Sat. I have no idea how good they are nor their method of cleaning cars. You could always bring your own supplies and buckets and find a wand style car wash for a DIY. Just throwing out options. I am in Plano and you are welcome to use my house. I will be out but you can still use my water. |
Craig, I got a call from Hans and he has it covered:D
Thanks for the offer my friend :biggulp: |
This maybe a dumb question but is anyone bringing their SO's?

So I’m at approximately 30,000 ft making my way home from the edge of the polar vortex. I’m bored out of my mind so here are some 993 fun facts about this Saturday’s gathering.
I think we’ll have 31 993s making about 7604hp all in one place – has to be a record of some sort. Here’s the breakdown: 1 C2 Targa 1 C2 Cab 17 C2 Coupes 4 C2S Coupes 3 C4S Coupes 3 Turbos 2 Turbo Rs Colors: 13 Black 1 Vesuvius 3 Guards Red 4 Midnight Blue 1 Arctic Silver 2 Signal Yellow 5 Grand Prix White 1 Metallic Black 1 Aventurine Green 2 Polar Silver 1 Slate Grey |

I wouldn't be able to attend if I didn't offer to bring mine:). She's excited at the prospect of being part of such a large group of 993's.:cheers:

One thing leads to another...
Got to RAC's website to get directions for tomorrow and started browsing their inventory...
There is this superb 98 Ferrari 550 Maranello w/ only 28k miles listed at $68k (sold). A 993 WB with similar mileage would command a similar price, if not into the $70's. http://inventory.racperformance.com/...Texas/1461257/ I marvel at how a Porsche is now selling at Ferrari prices. Whew, glad we got in before this madness. |
Mailed in Fister Raffle ticket selections
This is the current list of people I have that mailed in for tickets. If you sent me a check and you are not on the list below, please contact me as soon as possible and we'll arrange something. Thanks.
911Fahrer (1) - Ticket #9930001 Magdaddy (1) - Ticket #9930002 SC2993 (1) - Ticket #9930003 willus (1) - Ticket #9930004 All other tickets will be available at the event - Fister and general raffle tickets. |

It was a great time. Thanks to all those who helped pull it off. The Fister sound off was a blast. It was really neat to hear II, III's and III's with sport cats in succession :rockon: looking forward the 'big lensed' pics!
|
Thank loud THUNK THUNK you hear in the distance is me hitting my head on my desk. Rob and I SHOULD have driven down for the weekend to see y'all. We had ZERO to do this weekend. Rob and I are such Nimrods! DARN IT! Looks like a great time!

If anyone has the videos of the exhaust sound off please post for the community. I really want to hear Shadow993's take off again. Awesome!!!

Thanks to everyone that made today happen.. It was great to see so many 993 lunatics in one place with the same addiction! :-) bring on the madness!! :-)
|
Thank you to Brian (bbs993tt ), Scott from Office Perks, and Darin Fister for all pulling schedules together for such a great event.
We truly had a great time hosting and seeing such an incredible gathering of the 993's we are all so passionate about. I, as everyone else, can't wait to see some of the professional shots taken from some of big cameras that were clicking off shots all morning !!!! |
Thanks to Rich for getting the ball rolling, to Brian and the whole crew at RAC for putting it all together, Scott (coffeman) for providing you know what, and Darin for personally flying in for this event. Sorry if I left anybody out.
It was a great time and a pleasure to meet a great bunch of new (to me) fellow Rennlist 993 owners. :thumbup: JoAnne, you and Robert SHOULD have come down. You guys are honorary members of the DFW 993 crew. After all Darin flew all the way from California for this. :D BTW "Mr. 993", Rudy, aka Opo, gets the award for bringing the most 993s - 4 ! - and unique colors, besides. :cheers: |
Looks like a great GTG, man what some of us would do to get weather/temps like that around this time of year.
Nice pics and keep them coming! :cheers: |
Had a great time today and pleasure of seeing so many 993's. Thanks everybody for making this happen.

rsabeebe, so what fister's are you ordering?

since moving to dallas, i haven't really had the time to connect with too many 'car people' yet - a 3 y/o old daughter, a new job, a new house, etc. have kept us very busy. it was great to plug back in to the car community again and today's event was just amazing - what a phenomenal turnout!!
thanks to Brian for coordinating with Darin @ Fister and RAC and really getting behind making this happen. having spent time running many, many events for the BMW CCA on the east coast, i initially contacted Darin to see if we could get him involved firsthand with our event. when we made contact, Darin told me Brian had already had the same thought and things were in the works. it's always great to work with people who get behind a plan and make it happen. the raffle today was a great success and we need to thank Darin and Bill for offering such great items for the event. having vendors get involved with events like ours today speaks volumes to their commitment to the community. both gentleman are absolutely first-class. i'm looking forward to the next event already... have to give a shout out to rudy (Opo) for bringing not 1, not 2, not 3, but FOUR 993s with him last night to have on hand today. this dude is a serious p-car nut and it was great to finally meet him. i forgot my dig camera today, so i'm left with only iphone photos. i'd love to see, as many others have mentioned, a place to view and download pics from today's event at some point. @geowar - after hearing several options today, i plan to pair a set of Fister IIIs with the sport cats i have laying in the garage. i was lucky enough to win one of the Fister $50 certificates today, so i told Darin i would be using that certificate in short order. :thumbup: so... what are we doing next?? :roflmao: |

Guys, I genuinely enjoyed myself today at the Fister sound-off. I truly appreciate the commitment made by the organizers and certainly all the sponsors that ensured a good time was had by all.
To All, thanks for the experience!!! Pics will come…. |

It's my fault I blew it big time. I wasn't keeping track of the date. I check the forum daily, but not in depth like I used to when we had a 993. Rob and I will 'live' the event through the pictures. I still can't believe we missed it. I'll have to let Rob spank me...... Next time I'll put a sticky note on my computer so that when it happens and we are not tied up with something else we got to do, we'll be there. |

What a great event! So jealous - 993 is having nappy-time for at least another 3 months...
Would have been there in a heartbeat. :( So... thoughts on the Fister sound-off? :evilgrin: |

Find more at www.remicrodata.com/993ndgathering Hope you enjoy! To all who put this together, I wan't to say a big THANK YOU. It was even better than I expected, and I had high expectations. And thank you to all who showed up. It was fun to meet such a great group of people. :cheers: The Fister sound off was fun too. Only problem was that I woke up at 3 am thinking about how I "need" some Fister 3s. They sound good on youtube, but sound incredible in person. I stayed up until 5 am thinking of ways to convince the wife that it was a necessary addition. I think there may be something wrong with me. |

Judging by this video, it's almost time for a new clutch ... A bit of a lag after the shift. Perfect for a lwf upgrade. |
It was a great meetup, and fun to meet so many 993 fans. Special thanks to Brian, Scott (coffeman), Darin, Opo (he hauled 4 cars just for this event!!).
During lunch a few of us discussed doing a group drive and I'm certainly up for it. The discussion was a weekend drive around the Eureka Springs area in Ark and 'meena (Tallimena) - some absolutely fantastic roads. Apart from this, I've done a lot of rides in the local area with a group of fellow motorcycle riders that started on the north side of Dallas and wound through various curvy country roads through small towns like Leonard, Ana, Selena, Pilot Point, Muenster, etc. This was a decade ago, before I switched to roadracing motorcycles, but I can dig up those routes and plan a brunch route if anybody is interested. It would be a half-day drive. There's enough group pics, so here's some others I took. If anybody has privacy concerns with their number plate or face, just let me know and I'll take it down. The supercharged beast: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-E...o/IMG_3102.JPG The bumperete delete with euro lights on a dark car is a really clean look, gotta put this on my list: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-d...o/IMG_3108.JPG Dig that clean look without the rear bumperrete https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-h...o/IMG_3133.JPG Hey, we're missing the mid-90s: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-6...o/IMG_3113.JPG Ok, fixed: https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-n...o/IMG_3097.JPG Kewl sportster: https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-_...o/IMG_3117.JPG How many tails do we have here?

You mean the RAC guys? RUF is in Michigan, last I heard.
Looks like a great meet, makes me wish I lived in TX. My old wheels are looking good in this pic! |

Just like the Lotto winner that surfaces after a few days to claim their prize here I am! What a great time and thanks to all that put the event together! Nice to see some old friends and meet some new ones!
Darin sent some Stage II's to RAC but after hearing the difference between the II's & III's I have decided on III's! As soon as I get them installed I will report back with a huge grin on my face! :jumper: |
#boxcarracer : Great wheels that found many great family members! :bowdown

What a great time! It was really cool getting to meet Darin and all of the 993 owners, what a great group of people! I wish I could have stuck around for lunch but my daughter had a gymnastics meet in Galveston On Sunday and I had to get on the road.
Since I didn't win the Fister cans I now have to come up with a story to convince the wife that my car NEEDS new mufflers...:( |

after 19 years, simply tell her they are rattling, indicating the internal baffles have let go and there's the potential for debris to come out of the exhaust and damage a car behind you in traffic - leading, of course, to a lawsuit. that should take care of it.

What a great event! I can't stop thinking about how fun it was.
I LOVE TEXAS! The food, the people, the Porsches......what's not to like. Thanks to everyone who came. It was truly a great gathering.:thumbup: |
Guys,
Thanks for all the kind words and I'm glad everyone considered it a success. I'd be glad to help out with any future meetings. Like I said earlier, there WILL be other gatherings. If for no other reason to make sure Will can attend one. Not sure when or what format, but it will happen so stay tuned to this forum for future announcements. For those of you waiting for "significant other" approval for Fisters - just do it and ask for forgiveness later! If you don't, it's an immediate loss of man-points. Once y'all get them installed, the rest of us will need to give them a sound check, so that will be the basis for our next gathering! |

In case you were not aware RAC was the RUF US representative before Michigan. I know they did the RUF conversion on KMY's(?) red 993 from California. A lot of us DFW "oldtimers" will still occasionally refer to RAC as RUF. :D
I was corrected when I spoke with Ruf in Germany, so I wanted to pass the correction along :) |
My cars arrive safe and sound early this morning :) a big S/O to Hans and RAC staff, this guys washed my cars and made sure they arrived clean at my house :bowdown:
Can't wait til the next one:biggulp: |
What an epic event --- and a perfect day! I had no idea that there were that many 993s concentrated in the Dallas area ... some really amazing cars!
It was like stepping back into the 1990s again. My problem is that I thought I was done with the slippery slope but now I have a whole new list of things I want to do to my baby. Thanks to all for a great day! Bill |
We must make this an annual (or semi-annual) event so I can stop crying about missing this one.
Fortunately my sister took some photos so I could enjoy it from afar. I posted a few of them here: http://twofourthsfull.blogspot.com/2...uary-2014.html |

Wow, so many C4S, nice!

Gorgeous yellow 993, techsis, from the guy in the white BMW "harrassing" you on the Tollway on your way home. I was on my way to check out the Porsche gathering but found out about it too late.

Nice pics, Vandit. Thanks for posting.

Picked up my car from RAC after the installation of the Fister D III's on my car, what a sound transformation! The exhaust note is much deeper than the stock mufflers and really comes alive around the 4500 RPM mark. After speaking with Darin I decided on the black cermachrome color, they look great. Thanks to all that participated in the raffle and a special shout out to Hans & Seth at RAC and Darin at Fister D!
Picked up the car during a little snow dust up here in D and shot this photo when I got my car home. Going to be almost 70 here today, will be out for some aural fun in the 993 later today! |

Great choice on the IIIs John. Can't wait to hear them!

Good Grief!
How on Earth did I miss this get together? I drop by RAC every time we visit my inlaws in Dallas. Always an interesting place. My wife gets nervous when I wander over there alone though. Seems I have bought 2 cars from them. Please do it again! Dallas is a brief jaunt from Weston Lakes. Max |
