Need a Good Porsche 928 Forum...
Hi all,
I usually hang out in C3 Land, but I want to become more knowledgeable about the Porsche 928 series (ran from 1978-1995). I've had poor luck finding a forum so far. One looked decent, but charges a membership fee. Another with a paywall doesn't even let you in to see content until you pay.
Thank you, in advance.

aprilacati,
Thank you for your prompt response--and yes, rennlist does have a 928 section. And from what I read there, it's pretty well done, with some knowledgeable folks. However, unless I'm mistaken, if you want to search, open/close threads, etc..., you have to become a paid member.
But I could be wrong about that--I haven't selected a screen name yet, so I'm not yet a member. However, that's partly because I did get routed to a page that had three levels of membership, and the first (unpaid) could not open/close threads, etc..., and the second could. The third level of membership was "Lifetime." I'm sorry, but I can't remember the prices at the moment (which is unlike me).
Having failed, on my own, to find a (good) free site (I found some lame ones), I'm just tapping into the "brain trust," here--thanks for being a member.
There did seem to a lot of deep expertise there, on rennlist, so that's where I may end up, paywall or no. And I guess I can't begrudge someone for trying to monetize their website. I guess I'm just spoiled by the "Interweb 1.0" type of websites, like this one--i.e., free.
Thank you, again. Perhaps your sincere effort will prompt others to contribute, as well.
Cheers.

Thanks very much!
If anyone else has any suggestions, I'm still looking. I haven't found the equivalent of CF, but for Porsches, yet.

Hey--that's definitely one I didn't see before--thanks! I'm checking it out now. It appears that it may not have the depth of Rennlist, but that's okay. One thing I don't like about Rennlist is that it seems you cannot simply copy the url of a page, and put it in your files, for future reference. So this "pelican site" may be useful in that it doesn't have that drawback.
Thanks very much!
