I figured you'd found a copy of the DGI website. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

How about "estinc.com"? Tim's 914 Fan Page?

Or better yet, the Porschephiles mailing list?

Funny you focused on that also!! I went right to the bashing section because I just had another experience that keeps telling me they are just not customer friendly!!

The problem is they have some stuff that I cant get from anyone else!

Gotta wonder??

Sure do remember it, I even remember surfing it via text-only on a VAX my first year of school!
I always remember it as the Renegade 914 site though...

I was planning my buying of a 914 once I got done with college.

I remember that one...but this was that one that was really responsible for giving me the 'disease' of having to have a really correct GT clone (yay way back machine!):

I used to live down the street from him in Chandler,AZ back in the late 90's. I heard a rumor he got divorced, wrecked his vet? And can no longer drive 914's. Who knows for sure.

Last I talked to Tim, his son had a wreck in the 914. The kid was hurt, but survived intact. The car, not so much. Tim had gotten out of 914s and into the Mister Two Spyder.

I'm not sure what happened to him after that.

Yeah the way back machine! I remember all those sites Porschephiles being one of the first then Tim's or maybe its the other way around. Coffee hasnt kicked in yet but I do recall getting to meet DD and EdV because of the very early stages of Rennlist.

*SIGH*
