No No No.... nothing sinister... we just do not have a good track record with working well together.

We could talk at the meet, I don't want to side track this thread.... my bad.

just a quick update on my situation:


i was planning a pre-meet for the guys living in the western areas of the city but i will not be able to do so. i anticipated getting my car back much earlier but the work took longer than expected and like Silentrun, it's crunch time to have the car ready for the cruise.

i went to have a look today and there was still a lot of work left to be done. stuartpnb did assure me that the car would be ready for sat. i am scheduled to pick it up at 8:30am Saturday morning, 1/2 hour before the cruise. their tech told me he would be working late as long as it took to finish the car.

didnt find out till today that we needed an additional wiring harness. DOH..

called around and was amazed that Boardwalk Porsche actually had this thing in stock.

so, i guess i will see you guys at the meet point
