    I'll be there right after unloading a semi of scout flowers. Should ready to roll at about 10:30, so probably pull up around 11:30am.

    Is your front wheel bearing inspection still a "go" on the 328?

    It'd be great fun to have you guys at the tech session.

    This is a rather informal meeting. Dave has a few projects/ideas that he will demonstrate, so it doesn't matter that much whether you're there at the beginning.

    However it'd be great if we could get an approximate headcount from your group as we will serve a light lunch (sandwiches).

    Ditto, and if Carla's crew would like to do there own tech session, we have to clear it with Ed. I'd love to see the Lambos and others there.

    BTW: Ed has serviced Lambos as well. Not sure "service" is the right term if you have to take half the car apart though...
    :)

    After I saw what it took to replace a clutch on a Countach I was very happy with the maintenance bills I'm getting for my Ferrari.
