Mmike J's 8th annual BBQ and Polish-your-top-party - August 10th, 2013

[Mike Juzenas]

I would like to host Mike J's 8th annual shop day this year on Saturday, August 10, 2013. i am sorry about the late notice, I posted this on Rennlist, and thought I also covered Pelican, but I guess not....

I have had a lot of positive response on the idea of a detailing DIY session combined with a shop day, so I am going with that this year. This year will be a "polish your top" detailing workshop and shop day (now that your bottoms are clean from last year...).

I am playing with a few ideas on the theme, one is having a donor car and a judged competition on polishing and detailing. I will work out more details as we get closer to the event, but if someone wants their car be the focus of the detailing (preferably a car that really needs it), shoot me a PM and we can talk.

I will have a washing station setup, so if anyone wants to run through the whole process (wash, clay, polish, wax...) it should be possible. I am sure there will be lots of hands that will want to help.

In the background, the shop/lift/tools will be open as usual, although I will be assisting a lot less on the mechanics this year so nothing complex. First come-first served as usual.

Schedule:
9:00 - The shop is open

10:00 - Detailing workshop starts

11:30 on - The BBQ will be fired up for lunch depending on the appetites etc (maybe earlier!!)

5:00 - wrap-up

Hopefully the weather will be great! Even if it's raining the shop is large enough to have at least two-three cars undercover.

It would be great if those coming would either post or PM me so I have an idea on how much supplies/food we will be needing...

This is a Porsche event, not a 993 only event, and all the models are welcome of course. We might even have some other marques, a good friend might show up in his mint Ferrari 550 - we can poke fun at him... :-)

Cheers,

Mike
