Yes that was me. I showed up late and walked the coarse with JC. By the time I got around and back to sign up they closed out the event so no AX for me that day. I was there the Saturday before and drove the turbo. Always fun, although that Meadowlands parking lot is full of so much crap and destroys the tires.

I just had new PS2's put on the GTS yesterday and boy what a difference. I also spent the past several days cleaning the car. You won't recognize it. Hope you make it to the Picnic. We need to get more people out to these events. They really can be fun and it is always nice to see the clean cars and talk to everyone.

If you enjoy autocross you should try to make it to Porscherama at Pocono. It is guaranteed fun. I believe there are still 20 openings left for the 2 day AX event.

I just realized you have a 914 project in your sig. I have parts from 2 74's I am trying to get rid of. talk yo me if you make it to the Concours/Picnic. Much of it is free some I need to get some money for.

OK, just for that now the price is double Yeah my wife beat me by a point last year. Thats what I get for cleaning her car first. I wish I could show both cars by myself but you can't so I have my wife bring one and me the other. I bet you she will beat me this year also. She will be showing the GTS and I the turbo. I have spent the past few days cleaning the GTS and haven't started on the turbo yet and boy does it need cleaning after the autoX.

I am sorry I don't recall your name I met many people at these events although the event on the grass last year at Schooley's was not that great. The Picnic draws a bigger crowd and the more people we can get there the better.

Yes I sold the 914 to Sandy Although I wish I kept it. She really seams to be enjoying it and it would be sitting outside now with the GTS addition taking priority. I am glad it went to the right person.

Yep, always up for a run.

But I'll be in FL from Oct 6-10 and in europe from then till nov. Apparantly I'm getting married/honeymoon. Nice of the GF to let me know!

Funny, too many cars and not enough time to enjoy them!

Dave,

Congrats on getting married. So when do the 928's go up for sale?

Do you still have the 944? May be a good candidate for AutoX.

Yep I still have the 944. I was going to use it for autox but as I mentioned before, just no time. I'm sure you can appreciate the time and $$ required to keep 4 p-cars running.

The 944 will have to go as will the bmw. The wife will be trading in her mb230C kompressor sport for a Cayman and I'll be picking up something for a daily driver.

As for the 928's...not unless you pry them from my cold dead hands...

Someone has to set a date.

Otherwise it's just a never ending, 'we should get together'.

LOL, pick a date, they will come.

East Coast, West Coast or Bloods and Crypts...(Pelican/Rennlist) You could always try and make it a threeway with 6speed too? I still have nightmares about the rain!
