Who's going to the transmission rebuild class next week?
 

At Jerry Woods' place, with Bruce Anderson? I'm headed up there - should be fun, might learn something new.

Anyone else going?

-Wayne

Didn't know about it. Is this on a multi day affair like the eng class?

when?
I _NNEEEDD_ this class.

just found the information:

http://www.911handbook.com/

under "classes". Looks like its on Dec 13/14, cost is $400.

It was a great class, well worth the money.

Can someone sneak a camcorder in? :)

I wrote BA and asked if he would consider filming his class and selling it on DVD and he felt that it would not be as effective and had no plans to do so... I figured Wayne would have taken up the torch on that one eventually. $39.99 per dvd would end up paying well I imagine. Cheap to make once the filming is over..

iDVD or FinalCutPro, you could pump them out no-problemo

This is killing me. I'll be at Laguna Mon/Tue for a Skip Barber school and have no plans for Wed (the second day of the BA school)....and my tranny's due for rebuild....

I'd like to hear how much of what they say will apply to a 901 trans. ...


(I'm sure the camcorder thing was just a joke - no one would steal from these two guys who have doen so much to help us all with out 911s, would you?)

Yes Randy, I am serious....... I'm especially looking forward to the close up shots. The ones taken without them know it :eek:

Comeon!

Bruce, Jerry and others work hard to put on really informative classes complete with lots of take-home information. It is worth the air-fare, hotel, car rental, and tuition to go to these.

Bruce put on a less intense version at Ventura last summer and does so at many PCA events. Jerry and some other close businesses (Elephant and more) had a great open house this fall.

It probably should tell you something when guys like Wayne, Chuck Stoddard, and I go to these things over the years. The Porsche Parade has very informative Tech Sessions, some by the guys who originally designed and built the cars.

I find it offensive that anyone would consider to video and black market these guys wonderful work. These guys only cover their costs; this is not a high profit enterprise. They love the cars, the technology, and the teaching the next generation. This is why I spend my time on this forum.

Randy and Grady, My comment was completely tongue-in-cheek.... I thought it would be obvious.

I'd also think this class would be very worthwhile. Well worth the admission. As I've mentioned before I look foward to Wayne's book on the subject.

Rick,

Sorry, dumb o’l lame me misunderstood the words “I am serious.......”

Best,
Grady

no use in attending now...

my rebuild has turned into "replacement"

Grady,

No offense is intended. I should know better, sarcasm doesn't always go over well. My apologies if you took it the wrong way.

sarcasm is tough to do w/o voice intonations and/or facial expressions

It's even harder to do standup via Email....

no harm.
