I've been slow to welcome you all -- but welcome aboard and thanks for joining.

@Automobilist post your SL on carpokes. There are at least three SL owners onboard, probably more. Here's mine:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=222&p=1508&hilit=450SL#p1508


@Stbuk - appreciate your on-going support. I'm still working on the tach ring. ;)

@Noel -- post that turbo when you get it! Did you get it yet?

@BradHarvey -- welcome aboard! I'll have something in the mail for you tomorrow or Tuesday. :)

@svkarl -- stunning 992! Never would have thought to spec that color combo, but it absolutely works. And my first porsche was an '85 3.2 (which I should have never sold....)

@the6 -- hopefully you are all sorted on the plate mounts now. :) Chalk one up for Crazy Eddie.

@Oldnslo -- Can't wait to see the GT4!!

@Wizz -- very glad the mounts worked out -- car looks great!

@Caymanbob -- great taste in cars, but I wish you still had the 951 :)

@ENCT -- can't wait to see the 992 GTS. I think/hope they hit the sweet spot with that car.

Tom,
I was recommended by ‘iron cross’ for a free hat. Otherwise, how much are they and where do I send $$$? Great website by the way.

Thanks! Keep posting and bring over more friends. :) I can't find any 'iron cross' registered here? Can you point me to the recommendation? Happy to get you a hat either way, just scratching my head a bit. Send me a PM or email and we'll get you fixed up with a hat and related swag!

So Radco58 and CaymanBob are both you? And the person you are calling "Ironcross" I think signed up as ironcurtain? Sound about right? Either way, send me an email at admin@carpokes.com and we can sort out you own user name, and get you a hat. :)

Tom,
I don’t know how radco58 got in here, I must have used it initially when I first saw the carpoke website to see what it was all about. Can you delete it and I’ll use ‘Caymanbob’. Ironcurtain is correct. Trying to get a few other Porsche guys to sign onto the site as it seems to be used by regular guys, not elitist Porsche owners. That’s why I quit being a PCA member. I’m on this site more than Pelican or Rennlist forums. Keep up the good work!

Shoot me an email at admin@carpokes.com and we'll get your name sorted and get you a hat. :) I hesitate to turn off the Radco58 account just yet, because you are still posting with it and I worry you may not know your password for the other account?

Very much appreciate the kind words, and all efforts to get others onboard. We literally started this site so that real Porsche people could have a friendly place on the internet to talk about their cars without fighting off all the undesirable things that seem to come with other platforms these days. So it's heartening to hear validation for that in your comments. :)

Hello everyone just joined after hearing about this in RL. Looking forward to chatting about all things Porsche but particularly the 992. Have a carrera s cab and waiting patiently for my GTS cab to arrive in April. Great initiative Tom to set this up.

Howdy and welcome aboard -- you are local to the Carpokes worldwide headquarters! Have we met at a 951 event?
