I was waitiing for someone else to start a thread, since I don't have pictures, but here it goes.
I phoned Ralf late Friday to say I would only show up on Saturday morning. Ralf phones back half an hour later saying: "Michel, Do you have a spare CV joint at home you can bring ? someone showed up with a broken one, like you did last year" I was only happy to return a favor, so I brought a whole half-shaft. Turns out the CV joint was not broken, but that the bolts had backed out at the left outboard end. Repairs got done, and the ramble happened. I rode with Ed Villela, in his 911, 'cause I felt like a break from driving (and because Ed is a nice guy). We were in a little group of three cars that had hung back on account of the CV joint repair. With us were Nick and Heather in their absolutely awesome 914 with flares and camed 3.0 SC engine, and Mihai with his 914-project-in-the-making (Hey, he made the trip and back). Then, a few beers before dinner, which was great. This thread will get more interesting as people post pictures (unless another is started) but the weather held and we had a great time. I left after dinner, around 22:00, and was home at 1:30 Sunday morning. The green car ran like a top and all was well. I did hit a skunk near Plattsburgh NY. Nice to see everyboy again, and I look forward to next year ! |

I had an incredible time! Even though I missed the "ramble" portion of it. I found what happens when you let Webers sit without blowing them out good once in awhile (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)
Ed thanks for the quick lesson on jet cleaning!! The location was awesome as was the company and the food. I could only stay the day but had a good time never the less. Good job Ralph! My best to all, Mike D. ***Insert carb re-building smiley here*** |
