I live off of Fairview and Five Mile.

I got an email about coffee and cars at Lyle Pearson, but had an autocross this weekend so I didn't make it. Do you go out there?

This is the first I have heard of cars and coffee at Lyle Pearson! Might be cool to check out sometime. Did you autocross your Turbo? Where was the event at? I live over off of Riverside Drive on the North side of the Boise river! I always find myself near your house as the Harbour Freight is right near you! Lol! If you want to go with a different front bumper on your car let me know....I have a few laying around gathering dust I would let go for cheap! You planning on doing any mods yet?

I autocrossed it two weeks ago after the local Corvette club did theirs. I'm really involved the SCCA and we put on the autox for the Corvette guys and they let us use their course for free after they're done, so when they are done I did a couple runs with the 911. I have an E36 that I autocross for points/wins.

The cars and coffee happens the first Saturday of every month at 8am at Lyle Pearson. The wife and I want to make it out, but like I said I was racing this month, and next month I'll be out of town, so I doubt she'd go without me.

Welcome to the site, I'm in Nampa. Saw your car at the dealer also, looks good! I auto X'd a few times last year with my silver 996, so not sure if I met you out there. I just got my car all sorted out from doing an 18G turbo upgrade and am now driving it once again. I might make it to an auto x later on. I found that my car pushes pretty bad in auto x, I'll try some different air pressures.

I wasn't out there last year, I was deployed.

If you do come out this year look for me, I'm driving a green E36 with XD134 on the side.

Congratulations on the car! Looks like Boise is becoming quite a 996tt haven. It would be cool to get us all together someday.

I'd be down for that, and I'm sure my wife would be, too.

I'll probably do the next test and tune day at firebird, i think it's in a month and a half though. Maybe hit up the auto x in mountain home, I like that venue.

I won't be there for that autox. I should be at all the other ones, though.
