I know the instructor personally that was instructing her that weekend. He is a long time POC 994Spec guy, long before she wrecked, his exact words where "she is scaring me". Several of us where standing outside the garage area watching that turn. We heard the noise saw the bottom of the car and knew somebody was in trouble!! She was in garage space just down from several of my PCA San Diego friends. We had just finished installing GT3 front arms on a Boxster and aligning it. We where taking a break watching the cars go around!!

And speaking of PCA-SDR, one of your former 914 buddies Herb Meeder says hello. He was my instructor on Sunday at the Performance driving school. Great guy.

How in the hell did my name come up??

Former?? I just GAVE him a crank for his latest engine build, and I paid him tow fund money to attend a 914 event up near Laguna!!

Herb is a great guy. Good sense of humor and really strong instructor.

We were chatting about spec racing and I said this guy Brad Roberts is pretty active with Boxster spec and just moved to my area from SD... ever heard of him? He went on and on. He had a lot of good things to say about you. Always there to help a driver in need.

As an instructor Herb is first rate. He has that rare combination of patience, driving skill and ability to communicate what comes next. We cleaned up several bad habits that day.
