Adam,
Haven't heard to much interest about this weekend. I may cruise to the cape this Sunday morn. to sort out a new route. With next week being so warm, maybe next weekend we could set up a run. Perhaps, Dave will finally have his injecters sorted out also!
regards,
Paul

Paul,
I'm likely going to be making a run down to Sandwich myself Sat afternoon(?), picking up some snow tires from another P-Car owner on Rennlist. Looks like I'll be bringing the SHO though, 3 tires is a bit much to try to fit into the 911.

Mark,
Sunday is better for me, sorting out some electrical issues this week. There is a restaurant on the cape side of the bourne bridge right at the rotary. How about meeting there at 8:00AM, Sunday. Knowing this crowd I'm sure there will be a few more cars!
Paul

I put mine 'up' for the winter months & take off the insurance. But come the spring time I'd sure like to join the group for some fun runs.

Paul,

I'll keep an eye on what you guys are up to and join in as soon as I can. I just finished doing brakes on my sc, but it is a bit stripped down right now, awaiting paint. it's driveable, but lacking some most of its body armor (most of the trim is off). Either way, I'm glad that you guys have had an active group, and I have a few 911 friends in Metrowest who I'll try to bring along as well.

-Adam

Adam -
I think with the western MA / Northern CT guys, and the SE Mass / Cape guys there's going to be a lot of drives you'll be in the middle of. I'd love to see some central MA / NW CT runs as well, to mix it up a little. Come summertime I'd imagine the Cape guys will be looking to venture AWAY from the tourists a little.

While the traffic is low in NW RI, the roads are NOT twisty. Good for solo cruises to enjoy the sunshine, but nothing I'd write home about compared to some of the other runs.

I'll do some checking around & see if I can find some routes from other car clubs, etc.

Also, I remember YEARS ago that Route 2 in central MA seemed pretty interesting, coming through NY / Lake Placid area was AMAZING if you could get a run going, and recently saw that coming through Moscow ME area was pretty nice too, some challenging off-camber hilly turns & cops that say, "don't kill each other, ok?"

Hello Boy's:
I thought I had her put away for winter, nicely cocooned in her bubble. I must admit the urge to drive is taking over I feel like my car is taunting me ( not to mention you guy's with your no fear winter jaunts). I know those roads and they are great and they will be empty. That combined with this run starting in my back yard , how can I decline?
Weather Permitting I will see you there. (possibility of showers in the morning is forecast)
Peter

Mark, Bob, Jim - great meeting up with you guys again today. That was some pretty good meat loaf, and seeing women with the top down saying stuff like "punch it" is always a great thing.

Paul - heard something about "lactating" hope you're feeling ok. See you next time.
