Topic: Getting ready for T-Hill?

We have to get the 924 on the trailer and fill it up.  Well, maybe a few more things on the punch list but we'll be good to go.  I don't have to remove the air scoop that we used at Buttonwillow because I spun into the dirt at Sears.  That scoop is on the garage wall now.  Yes, I found a spot at Sears that wasn't concrete to spin. 
How many teams?  Any word on the track configuration?

Re: Getting ready for T-Hill?

We picked up a 924 turbo for $250 last month.  We might have overpaid at that.  We plan to have it ready next year.  My yard is starting to look like Porsche Heaven.  I'm not sure how many will be at T-hill this year but we should plan on a group photo - early, before things go south.

John, I think he's just saying that Volvos used Bosch K-Jetronic for a bit

Re: Getting ready for T-Hill?

I was thinking a 242 with a complete 928 drivetrain....  my bad...

   But it has fired up my imagination..  and that could be dangerous.
