Instructors: DE day/ National Certification

Calling all Instructors!

Curt Yaws has posted a notice on the Announcements page regarding the DE/National Certification event on December 14th. So far the CDI's have gotten limited responses from the Instructors. If you are an Instructor, please read Curt's notice under Announcements. Hint: If you are a current AX/TT Instructor, the day is ....(ahem) free of charge , and you get National Certification Training to boot. :beerchug:

Please let us know if you can attend: CDI@PCASDR.ORG.

As part of being a member of the "Instructor Corps", you have the opportunity to have a free day of driving and training. Don't miss out! The cost is right! :D

If you are considering becoming an Instructor, I strongy recommend you pay the low-cost fee and attend this event (Please note: minimum driving experience is required to participate in this event. Please review the Rules page to be certain you and your vehicle qualify to participate in a DE event at the Q).

The local CDI's hope the Instructors take advantage of this special day, and come out for the last driving event at the Q for 2008.

See you there!

Oops! :oops: Left hand didn't know about the right hand. My bad. :banghead:

Okay, so Chuck Sharp has sent an email to all qualified Instructors regarding this DE day/National Certification. Instructors, please be sure to respond to his email in order to participate. Your response is your registration for the event. Even a "no" or "I don't know/I'm not sure yet" helps us plan, so please respond.

Non-Instructors (drivers), there's still room for you to sign up, too. The fees are low, and there will be plenty of seat-time.

Sorry for the confusion. :? Now, back to your regularly scheduled program. :burnout:

What about starting the process to become an instructor the day before? I am interested in doing just that.

Brian:

Please see one of the CDI's at the AX. We will explain the process, have the initial exams available, and get the process started should you meet the initial qualifications. I welcome all those interested in joining the Corps of Instructors to talk to us. We welcome you interest and enthusiasm. (For Time Trial Instructor qualifications, please contact the TT-CDI, Jack Miller.)

Thanks for your interest, Brian.

I’ll be bringing the club trailer to the Q Friday evening and back to storage in Kearney Mesa Sunday evening. I’ll need to get my car and the truck back to Encinitas Sunday. If anyone is sharing a car Sunday and could drive a car north at the end of the day, please PM me or psc993@gmail.com.
Thanks,
Peter

Can't see it in the photo, a pair of 1/8 thick clear plastic covers are taped over the H4 lens.
I hope that tape comes off easy. :beerchug:

Oooh. Very cool! I'll want to check those out. Might be something I could use. Maybe you can tell me where to get them. :wink:

These are actually pretty cool.
Would work on all 911s.
Toughest part sometimes is getting the little metal tabs under your headlight ring at about 3 and 9 o'clock.
On the black car I just taped the covers on for this one time.
They are clear, but on an old worn set I painted the inside black for a new look.
Cheap covers too, $30.

First time for me too Mike. Looking forward to it as well.

I have the entire headlight lens made of plastic. Actually bought them from Jae Lee a while back. They look exactly like the real lens. I do like the clear ones you have though, you can paint the backside.
