Gonna be fun.

OK, here's the Food, Directions, Work Needed, and Everything Else thread for the GTG in Eugene on February 19th.

Directions: from I-5 take exit 189, swing by the SeQuential station for B5, B20, or B99, snacks, beer, kombucha, sandwiches, or a hug. Then drive south on McVay Hwy (the road that SeQuential and 76 are on). The road descends for 1/4 mile, then turn left on Nugget Way, immediate right, and then on the right is Cascade Auto Works. Don't get lost at the FTW Tuning place next door, they'll turn your TDI into an ethanol-powered STI or WRX!

We have plenty of BBQ square footage. Anyone want to volunteer certain items? I'm not sure what kitchen space we have, I'll check on that...

I assume the lifts will be the most popular thing, so we should probably build a schedule around that. I want to poke around underneath my car, but it's not a high priority. Other than that, I'm due for an oil change and tire rotation, and I might try chasing down the reverse light problem and maybe do a 5 Brake Light Mod.

This is going to be wicked awesome! :D


1985 jetta TD. It was free, and it shows. Down and dirty engine refresh made it run fairly well.... No leaks, except water into the cabin!

2001 golf Tdi. Heavy built ALH, soon to have a PD Frankenstein motor.

if i get my car done in time, im there..

a week should be enough to swap a turbo, while going to school..
92 Jetta GLI - Black, 1.6D w/ GT2056V turbo..
86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.

LOL. Figured it was a longshot. I go to this GTG 2x a year mostly to wrench. I'd never call it a car show....  ;D

Next one I know of will be at Fixumhaus on Lombard near the St. John's Bridge, that or Pacific Waterland in Woodburn.
