944-Spec#94 Posted December 10, 2005 Author Share Posted December 10, 2005 Well quick count off the top of my head 1) Joe P 2) Glenn G 3) Vince V 4) Steve S 5) well Norm H? Darren G? Jon A? Maybe even a few SCCA folks and So cal folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeanutinCA Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Gee, that $250 might almost cover my costs to get out there and stay? P.D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Comeau Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 According to my calculations......... $200 in TOYO TIRES money, if I win both days. $250 from the Saturday purse for a class win. $50 gift certificate for 5 cars in class. Maybe a discounted entry for travelling from SoCal? Maybe I could sell my 7 x 15 BBS wheels to an SCCA Spec 944 racer while I'm out there? I could pick up parts from Joe while I'm there...... Hmmmmmmmm? Let's bounce that against how much money I stand to make with rentals this Saturday........... Cost of gas to get to PHX? Borrow radar detector.... Hmmmm?

944-Spec#94 Posted December 13, 2005 Author Share Posted December 13, 2005 Ok... so which So-Cal (or nor cal) guys are making the trip out race with us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Comeau Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I'm seriously considering it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
944-Spec#94 Posted December 13, 2005 Author Share Posted December 13, 2005 I'm seriously considering it..... If you want those 924S body parts let me know. I will need to pull them off the parts car and toss them in the truck to the track. You can decide for sure after seeing them at the track.

JonnyCocktail Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I will be there for Saturday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeanutinCA Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 With no confirmed place of residence (STILL) and 7 days until leaving for NY, I can't do it! Wish I could, I REALLY enjoyed myself at that track (PIR). Keep an eye open for the ConspiracyEight.com 944 Spec race car to be on the sale block soon. Financial responsibility mandates my parting with the 3 out of 4 Big Track (with POC), track record holding '88 flyer. Remember, it's all '88 advantage, not the driver what-so-ever! Please forward your interest in the black and yellow Thunder from Down Under! That's the car, not me! P.Dilly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
944-Spec#94 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 I will be there for Saturday! Glad to see you are coming out. You could run Sunday too. We would love to have you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Comeau Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Joe, The 924S fenders need to be really nice. I don't want to do body work. Don't really know how. How much are we talking for the fenders and valence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
944-Spec#94 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 Tim, The are all red and straight. Left side is perfect. Right side came from an 2.0L 924 based on what a PO of the car said and has a chip in some previous bondo work. They would need paint unless you want faded red. I'll show some pics.

944-Spec#94 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 Here are some fender pics. left one is nice and straight. Right one is good, but has that one spot. Both would need black paint. Probably not worth it to ship, but If you are making the tow out then bring them back should not be hard.

p928sfan Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Alright, I'm shooting for being at the track Sunday. Wish I could make Saturday to make sure you guys have the 5 necessary (in case one of you 5 break before the race, hope not --knock on wood), but need that day to look over the car. While I have started it once a month religiously over the past year or so, I haven't actually ran it anywhere (tough when it's up on jackstands). Started it tonight for about 5 minutes and it seemed ok, but we'll see. Not sure about my status - being out for over a year, so I'll have to check with Jason or someone about what class to register for...

944-Spec#94 Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 Cool Kevin! Glad to hear you are giving it a shot. I think you mean contact Joe Vaccaro right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Comeau Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Joe, Looks like I'll have to stick around local this weekend. I had to decide yesterday and there weren't enough of the variables lined up to make a go of it. Truck and trailer was the biggest thing. Hit up the SCCA guys for extra track time. Norm Hamden?

p928sfan Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 yes, yes I did mean Joe Vaccaro Alrighty, registered and good to go for Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Comeau Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Can you guys try to bring a digital camera and get some pics of the cars and drivers to fill out the website? I want the guys on the East Coast who are interested in building our great class out there to have a super cool site to refer to! I know for a fact that it makes a big difference when they see ALL those pictures of our cars! We need to replace some of the driver pics because they are unclear or whatever. Just a clear shot of the head and chest is all we need. Let's build this 944 spec thing into a National Class! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p928sfan Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Sorry Tim. No photos allowed here. Some of us don't want to be recognized. (until we start catching some people on the track ) It's better being unknown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
