JJ had the brilliant ideal to go for a ride instead of standing up.

If anybody have a route in mind, let us know, if not, I can try prepare one.

Correction: Paul Racine and Rob Martin are not co-owners of CMP, however they do own and operate En-Track Experience which coordinates and manages the CMP lapping days.
Great guys! and a great facility!!

Default Drove my car yesterday!

Beautiful day yesterday so I got my car out of the garage and started her up for the first time since December. Washed and waxed her and went for a drive. Not happy to see snow on the ground this morning.... I got my 1989 944 Turbo S last fall and I am looking forward to joining you guys for coffee and a drive. Where do you guys take your cars for small things like oil changes? Or bigger jobs? I have had a great experience and would highly recommend Blaszak Precision Motorsports in Inverary (near Kingston) and will be bringing him my baby as soon as I can make it out there. However, I am considering an oil change before making the drive out to Inverary. Any suggestions of a good place to get this done?

When will be the first coffee meet this spring? Bring on the warm weather!

Looking forward to another 944 among the 911's where are you located? Oil changes I do at home but bbgun set me up with a shop in buckingham that did a great job with my timing belt and water pump last fall. I would sugest the shop for any more advanced repairs.
