Seattle or Portland
(Prefer Portland - I even have two gearboxes, billet intermediate plate and billet side plate for use! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

Possibly even a place (home shop) plus BBQ - depending on number of attendees <10 would be OK with the Mrs.


We always shoot for between 10-15 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Last time we did at least 7 boxes and had plenty of looky loos.

Portland would be great. I would like to put a side shifter in one of my cars and have 3 parts trannys to cannabilize. I suspect we would be doing this under your guidance so would know what sort of tools to bring etc. I'll have to ask the spouse to interpret the FF miles as I know we have em.

Yup, hand holding is included, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) . I will bring all of the special tools, other than that there are not many that you need. If you want to convert to a side shift we can do the work on your car at the meet. It would be a great teaching experience.

If you want one up here...I have 5k shop...and 10 acres for camping..
Mike, we have spare rooms. We probably have 5-10 people up in this area that may want to do it. My tranny is fine.

If you go for NJ..contact Ray Mital...he has access to a shop with a lift...and there are quite a few NJ guys that might want to do this.

I have a spare sideshift with a 2nd gear synchro that's shot. I'd be in for a PNW venue given enough lead time.

OK everyone. There WILL be a clinic in the PNW, probably OR, probably Portland as there is an overwhelming response for that spot and lots of hosts. We need to coordinate. I need to know how many paying people are in vs just people wanting to watch. For any of these clinics you can bring as many boxes as you want so long as you do the work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Not bad for $300. I will bring seal kits for sale for $40 and spare parts (depending on what I have left as I have about 8 boxes to do and they may drain my supplies). We will be better served if everyone takes their gear stacks out first se I can inspect them and order any parts that we may need, but this wont be mandatory and you will be able to fix what ever after I am done with you. Plus, I will always be available after the clinic for help. People need to beat the bushes to get as many people as possible to come.
Here are the people who spoke up for the PNW:
- Shade Tree (Host)***
- my928s4
- rdauenhauer
- jmmotorsports
- Rubber Boa
- PanelBilly
- BKLA (host for <10)
- Wilhelm
- Gary
- Larouex

Next place that is doable, SoCal. I do not have a host offer in So Cal yet, but I bet if ya'll talked to Joe Sharp we can easily get a set up there and have a huge turn out that would warrant (pay for) a flight out there.
Here are the ones who spoke up and that I hope will get some more interest:
- Heeltoe914
- computers4kids
- carlilg
- jim_hoyland
- 0396

Next up, Atlanta! I bet if ya'll down there put the word out we can get enough people to warrant a trip down there. I am willing if you get the numbers. I will also need a host.
Here are those that spoke up:
- michaelmoo
- Joe Owensby
- gerziebaker

Mid Atlantic, this should be stupid easy to get going. This is a must. We have a host offer in South NJ. I know Richie would host in Brooklyn, but that would be cramped I think. We need to beat the bushes as this takes less planning as I can drive there. Lets go men!
- SLKWrx (host)
- Cupomeat

( I am seeing Cupomeat tomorrow AM for a tranz drop off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) )

Here are the other following places. I am willing to go anywhere if there are enough people to finance the ticket and make it a worth while trip! Dont be down because you dont have the numbers, yet. See if you can recruit people (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

North East
- firstknight13 (host)
- r_towle (host)

NorCal
- RobW (Host)

Mid West

OH
- dflesburg
WI
- jmill (host and lots of resources. PLEASE find more people, this would rock)


South
TX
- tat2dphreak

I will be contacting those that have offered to host that are in areas that are most likely to work out. I'll contact the others when the numbers increase.

Pacific Northwest area works for me but really needs to be in the winter when the car is off the road and the trans is out.
