40) Peter Anderson 	- 	? 	- 	S4? (may have conflict)

That's another 5 S car "maybe's", making ~ 24 or so.

The definite no's:

Mark Besso (what, is Seattle to f'n far?)
Lee Levitt - schedule conflict
Bruce M. - schedule conflict

So that's the latest for now, it's shaping up to be a grand event indeed.
Sorry if I've missed anyone, if so, respond to the invite (as well as those
of you yet to do so).

I've had a few suggestions for the day, like WOT runs through my
neighborhood and a detail party Friday evening, heh heh.  Don't forget your
helmet if you plan to hit Sunday's autocross.

For those who've offered to bring something, as you can see the list is
getting large, so any BBQ side dishes will be a great help.  Email me to let
me know what you'd like to bring so I can keep track.

Ray T. / Jimmmaaaay N:  you still offering to take care of keg duty?  Talk
amongst yourselves on that one...

Also, a few have expressed interest in caravaning up together, especially
you NJ / NYers, or CT downstate-ers.

Anyway, looking forward to more responses, and please let me know of any
other suggestions, other attendees, etc.  Eight or so weeks and counting.
And my wife STILL does not understand 'us' (beware, she too is receiving
this!)...

Remember, if you have not done so, please reply to the site.  Thanks.
