Hey, bring mine and give it to Ben - I loaned it to you when yours arrived late, remember?

I'll be showing up... No DE event for me, but I apparently have critical rust in my passenger side doorsil/rocker panel.... I hear Charlie's THE 944 guy to see about stuff like that.

I got schooled on how to properly close a Porsche door at tech. Also a note to self, never show up to tech with new rotors and used pads that you didn't bed in yet...causes all kinds of unintended attention.


Oh and I think Rob came out of there with cash in hand......

Steve, you had the CV joint cover rip, right? shame something seemingly small as that can fail ya for an event... And those are a pain in the reproductive organs to replace...

Turned out my car wasn't as bad off as i thought. Except the rust created by my car having been rear ended at some point. One of those things that will never be totally fixable. Looks like this car will stay a daily driver, till she dies. Then it's off to the salvage yard.
