    Lightbulb The Registry Traveler's Network

    Did some think'n on this and this is what we've come up so far......

    This will be an Early 911S Registry deal... in that you must be a paid member of the club to participate.

    Not only will this hopefully grow the club, but, we felt it inappropriate for the club to help collect and organize personal contact info for members of this board in the same way paid members of the club give us implied approval of agreed info released for the club's yearly roster.

    In fact my first thought was to use the yearly membership roster as the tool for this new Network...... but the idea of scrolling or thumbing through 75 pages of members seemed a bit foolish, especially when your on the road.

    So...

    We will create a new tool with your help....
    It will take a while to collect and organize the info, but lets start here.

    - If you are a paid member of the Early 911S Registry and would like to participate as a contact for our new Traveler's Network, please send an email to Fred Trueman (headed with Traveler's Network in the subject line) with your name, membership number, and the info (State, address, phone number, email address, etc.) you'd like to have appear.
    fctruem@verizon.net

    - For those that don't frequent the message board, John Dilger will state the same request in the next issue of ESSES.

    - With your help Fred will eventually organize this info into a simple, logical, user friendly travel tool ..... State by state, right coast to left, up and down, regions, US/foreign maps.... we don't know yet......

    So,
    If you have data base experience collating info into a tool like we're thinking of PLEASE get in touch with Fred as well......... your ideas might be better then ours......

    This is the first step..... send in your info to Fred and let's get it go'n guys......

    Cheers,
    Chuck

    Two thumbs up! Great idea. Can't you see a S-Reg 'ap for that'?

    And if you break down near Fall City, I know the way to Bernie's blindfolded.

    Travel Assistance Network

    I've been on the 356 Travel Assistance Network for a long time, and although
    I didn't need it when I drove my Speedster across the country in '04, it was
    really comforting knowing it was there.

    We have it broken down into categories such as: Distance from your home,
    Times they can contact you, and Level of assistance you can provide, from
    'share a beer with you while you lament' to 'full shop with equipment at
    your service.'

    It's amazing what lengths car guys will go to help a brother out.
    Great idea.

    We do the same thing in the Hot Rod community.

    Very cool!, I didn't realize that you drove out for that event, I thought you had it trailered along with Joel Horvitz and the couple of other guys from your area. Instead of my speedster, I brought down my Orange 59A coupe, and ultimately sold it at the event to a fellow member of both 356 and Registry boards.

    cheers,
    Eric
