Re: Scirocco turnout at ND

["Kris Rayner" <veritech@fix.net>]

My favorite part about the Renner 16V turbo's were the "big 
bumpers" they had put on.  They had been poorly cut so as to fit 
the cars and were then held in place by long screws, unevenly 
spaced that went right through the body, ouch!  Yeah they were 
fast, but the overall exucution definetly could have been done better.

But all of the 'rocco guys that I met were very nice and quite 
talkative, especially the two guys that had 16V MK1's there.  Just 
about all of us were sporting out Scirocco list t-shirts, and if we 
didn't have ours (like I did), Shawn had them right there in the back 
of his car. This was my first H2O VW show and I had a blast.  The 
group of list members from So. Cal. were awesome, taking a slight 
detour so that I could join the caravan.  The drive up Hwy. 1 was 
incredibly beautiful, the nice winding road (when we weren't behind 
slow traffic), the coast line with the nice teal-blue ocean, and the 
"snake" of six Scirocco's making thier way up that coast.

I didn't get a count on the MK2's, but there were aprox. 13 MK1's 
present at the show, including a couple of weary travellers: Eric 
with his yellow MK1 from Colorado and Andre with his Vomit 
Rocket from Washington!  There were some nice MK2's there.  
One 16V had an awesome white/yellow/orange paint job and 
Reiger body kit and was part of the show.

On a humorous note, people were flying up and down De La Cruz 
Blvd, in front of ND all day long.  It wasn't until the last hour or so 
that one cop finally showed up.  Just about everyone at the show 
saw him drive by and then pull off onto a side street to sit and wait. 
 It wasn't long before a black SLC decided to show off. A group of 
people were trying to get him to slow down, but he didn't want to 
listen.  He flew by as the cop casually pulled out and turned the 
lights and pulled him over.  About 80% of the show go-ers were all 
standing out in the street hooting and hollering at the idiot in the 
Corrado.
