Thanks Park, These intercoolers made a significant difference on the track. The car ran all day as if it were a chilly spring night.

Bucky,

There is a pro skateboarding competition (street) in Seattle this weekend. Any chance you'll be up here? I'd be happy to buy you a beer (or your favorite beverage) if you're in town. Best wishes, and I'm a fellow weight loss fanatic myself.

I've never seen your car, I don't know many modded Turbos in my area!

I'd love to check it out. I'm in Encinitas as well.

Great looking 996, CF roof is awesome - really suits the white, wonder if it really makes much difference in performance though?

Also quite funny that I can remember playing as 'Bucky Lasek' on PlayStation just a few years ago!!!

Thanks,
I saved about 40lbs. all up top which is a huge handling upgrade.

I know Luxury4play is arranging a meet this weekend. Can you make it to this?

Here is a little info from Amy who is arranging everything:



Everyone in La and OC will meet at Cars and Coffee Irvine. We will head to Cars & Coffee Carlsbad at 8:30 am. We will leave Carlsbad C&C at 9:30 to head to Station House Pizza. From there we will mingle and head on another amazing drive which the owner of Station Pizza has planned!

Cars & Coffee Irvine Address
7905 Gateway Blvd., Irvine, CA, 92618

Cars & Coffee Carlsbad Address:
Carlsbad Company Stores
5620 Paseo Del Norte Suite #124
Carlsbad, California 92008

We then head to Station House Pizza..


****Please Note: Station Pizza opens at 10:00am, so if you arrive early, don't worry if no one is there yet, we are on our way!****

All car makes and models are welcome! The more, the merrier!

This is a new monthly event...So this is the plan: Meet at Station Pizza in San Marcos at 10:00am (this will take place AFTER... Cars and Coffee in Carlsbad, so cruise on down the road to grab some lunch and look at more cars!). We will han...g out here and devour some delicious pizza, shoot a little pool, and hang out until 12:00pm.

At 12:00pm those interested will go for a little cruise to an as yet undetermined location (most likely to Julian or Palomar Mountain), leaving from Station Pizza.

So please, tell your friends and neighbors and feel free to pass this invite along to whoever you know that would be interested! Even if you can't join us for the cruise at 12:00pm, we would love to see your smiling faces (and shiny cars) between 10:00am and 12:00pm!!!

The first couple meets were a great success...let's make this one even BIGGER!!
