Howdy y'all! Long time Rennlister here, thought I'd drop by and check you guys out. I recognize a number of names, so I imagine I will feel at home here.

Hey FR! Its been a long time, how have you been?

Regards, ...Scott

Welcome to the board

Read a few of the most active recent threads before asking about NOS, turboing an NA, drag racing, etc.

Good to see some more Midwesterners

No worries on that score... I have a bit of experience with 944's, having owned a few of them over the last nine years, including (currently) an '84 944 with a FR Wilk chip in it, an '87 951 and a '92 968 cab. I try to do most of my own work on the cars, and have a pretty good grasp on what works and what doesn't.

How far away are you from KC?

Regards, ...Scott

Welcome Scott. I am surprised to see how many from the KC metro area are Pelican members.

Welcome! I see you posting quite a bit at Rennlist, and I'm glad to have another tech expert here with us.

Guys- judging by his posts at Rennlist over the years, this man definately knows his stuff. Now lets try not to scare him away!

Ha! You guys are the ones who should be afraid... if you "carbon date" me, you'll find that I go all the way back to the Porschephiles email list days! I'm pretty sure its *unnatural* to still be doing this after all these years, right?

Regards,

Hey Scott,

Good to see you make the leap over here too. Having met Scott at the 944 fest last year and seeing his vast experience regarding tech and general P-car knowledge, let me say he knows his stuff and will be a great asset to Pelican.

Hey Eric! Thanks for the welcome! Are you going this year too? I am trying to talk Lisa into it, altho with Parade taking place at the same time in Ft Worth (we are displaced Texans!), I'm probably going to have to resort to threats/bribery!

Regards,
