I saw on 6speedonline.com about this event hosted by RUF. (I emailed Hans there to confirm it.)
Get a free car scan, 21 point inspection (the car is put on a lift), and a car wash.
Hang out and chat with fellow Porsche Owners if you're in the DFW area.

Saw the ad in the MRPCA mag. I went to the same type of event at ParkPlace (Dallas Porsche dealership) and the part I enjoy the most was getting close to the LMP spyder, the CGTs and vintage RSs... I've never been to RUf and will probably take this opportunity...

Sounds like a great excuse to get the Box out and stretch her legs down I-35. :dance:

Looks like a blast, hope you guy's have fun!

In that case you definitely must go. The adjacent car storage is practically a museum of all things fast and powerful. See you there!

Tim, seeing as how I am without Porsche at this time, can I bum a ride? Or are you bringing a companion?

I think Tamera is coming with me. If that changes I'll let you know.

I will definitely go. Are you guys going in the morning or afternoon?

Jeph, PM me your location. If my wife doesn't want to join me (which she never does to these events) I can give you a ride if you'd like.

Thanks for the offer! I think I'll be getting a ride with Timothy. He lives blocks away from me. I haven't discussed time with Tim, but I imagine we'll go around 10:30-11:00am.

Cool. PM me if that changes. I'll see you out there!

timothy · 01-23-2009, 07:04 AM

Jeph, your facebook event notice says 9 - 11 and now you are saying 11 - 1? Get your act together man!!

Since of course we are going for the free food, let's talk in terms of meals. I prefer a RUF breakfast so the afternoon is free for other projects; however, I can be pursuaded if the consensus is to go for lunch.

Let's take a vote: 1 breakfast -- 0 lunch
Jeph and 986FortyEight, how do you vote?

Jeph · 01-23-2009, 07:25 AM

9:00am is fine with me... especially if you guys want a scan/wash.

Savanh · 01-23-2009, 03:48 PM

Hey guys!

Are these member only?

No, come and join us! The guys at RUF welcome everyone with open arms.

Somewhere along the way I got it in my head that the event was this Saturday, not next. So I arrive at Jeph's all bright eyed and chipper, and he answers the phone sounding half asleep. Poor guy had to set me straight and I went back home to try again same time next week.

Jaxonalden · 01-24-2009, 07:08 AM

Timothy,

In the military we call that an Operational Check-Out. For your effort, "Ops Check good".

I also had in mind the event would be today but fortunately I checked before going to bed last night! :dance:
See you for breakfast next week!

Guys, I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know I'll be joining everyone at the event. I'm picking up my 07 Boxster S this wknd, and it will be my first P-car, so of course I am ECSTATIC!!!! :dance:
I'd love to meet some other Boxster drivers so be on the lookout for my Silver/Black a the event and make sure to say hey! Thanks
