I decided to go a couple of days before and it was my first outing with 914 world members.....

With my car only recently surviving a 2.0 to 2.2 rebuild here's how the other members made sure I had a good time.....

1. Not having pre-registered I was treated to coming in on another's pass... (forgive me for forgetting his name)

2. I went to the "Will Call" booth not having called and was treated to a Paddock Pass with a "here, it's on me." Begging works.

3. Big Len said "Hurry up and eat your wrap. We gotta get to the skid pad." OK, why?

4. To get in the Porsche Parade around the course.

5. We're 15 minutes late for registration and the Porsche Parade (!!!) is full.....

6. Except that Leigh says.... "Ask Him."

7. "Just get on the line and drive out there."

8. So we did, and we did, and I did two laps at Lime Rock Park... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I can't imagine a better introduction to fellow 914ers.... Thank you all so much.

Free admission, free Paddock, free laps.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)
