ok now that im getting a car which club is right???

[jose_marti]

So im new to post all on here and on my way to having my first porsche! yah so other than jumping from the crazy bimmer commiunity to what ive always wanted in a car i need to know now where would be some good places in NORCAL to find other owners by the bunch and not have a problem getting advice and info and help with my car not that i wont be here first on pelican.

AutoX, Weekend trips and other get togethers that take place often too are good

if you just ask "who's in norcal" you'll find plenty of responses

Well there's a get-together being planned as we speak, err write. Have you ever worked on suspension before? If so, check out this thread. I hope Toby won't mind.

bay area suspension rebuild (party)

us norcal guys just seem to gravitate anyways. get the car, you get the membership card. just like that! as i understand it, you guys have a fun autoX in salinas. i hope to make one soon.

jose, thanks for asking such a timely question. here are a few hints

well, that all depends on what you are trying to accomplish. for most situations a simple MagLite with C cells will do. some prefer small tire thumpers (available at any good truck stop) that can be easily placed under the seat. most, however, prefer a bit more heft and keep items such as breaker bars and large Crescent wrenches behind the seat. I don't really agree with this last choice, as they make it too difficult to hide intent and can also leave embarrassing identifying marks on the hapless victims. imagine the look on your mom's face when the cops show up for this one, eh? personally, I have always preferred large-caliber firepower and still swear by my trusty old Lousiville Slugger. sure, the technology is somewhat antiquated, but man, whip one of those out and you'll feel like Dirty Harry. the chicks dig 'em too. just remember one thing, it's not the size of the tool, but the size of the damage on the pitiful fool you leave lying in the gutter

well, happy hunting and welcome to the fraternity


oh, wait....

welcome jose, the bay area is great for porsche groups, clubs and very informal drives. stay tuned here for drive and autocross events.

actually there is an autocross school in a couple weeks with the pca. a few guys from the board are going maybe they can give you the skinny on it. i got my nugget magazine yesterday and it said there was still space available. thats a great time and an oppertunity to learn how to drive an ace heavy car..

chris, cliff,, i have been thinking of starting a "mid-year" yahoo group, kinda like the BAR group but without all the new iron.

i mean pelican will still be the S, but we could save some of wyanes server space. what do you guys think??

Sounds good Toby. I think the BAR group kinda died out anyway. I haven't been on a ride with them in months. How do you plan on spreading the word?

I dunno about your area but here in florida the SCCA and PCA have provided me much entertainment.
