Come say hi! Look for the 944...well, the only 944. We're the only people crazy enough to bring a 944 this time.

We're making a few adjustments to the car right now to pass tech (tow hooks we hope we don't have to use, replacing coolant with water we hope we don't barf, etc.), but other than that, we're mostly ready.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! It finally runs...mostly. We hope. It ran great yesterday, so there's that.

Wooo! 944!

You are my new hero, racing one of my favorite cars at Lemons, you better take a ton of pictures, or I'll brow beat you over the interwebs.

No other 944s means no other teams to scavenge parts from...
On a totally unrelated note did you bring the spare engine?

I should be up there tonight, what time does the track close?

"It ran great yesterday..."

I feel like that gets said EVERY event we go to, while we're trying to figure out while it won't start in line for tech. ha

I got to drive it today. Really liking this track. Interesting layout. Lots of elevation change. Less sketchy bathrooms and an indoor snack place.

Very happy 'bout this. Yes.

True, true. The spare engine is still at Brianne's. :(

Not sure if the track closes.

Glad you enjoyed it. It's a little more technical than some of the others I've been to. Very enjoyable once you get it memorized.

AWESOME!!! We finished above mid-pack overall somewhere. The car survived for the whole race (save for a fuel filler neck-related black flag—oops).

I'm very, very happy about how well a first-time outing for this car/team finished. Also, I'm nice and warm inside with my (unharmed) Puffalumps now. I'll have to write the whole thing up now.
