I hope you guys are going to post some pictures. Wish I could have made it but at least our club got together for a breakfast and good conversation. I really would like to see the good time I missed out on this year.

Red Group

Hey WingNut - glad to meet you at the 'Fest. Enjoyed the romp through the hills with the "Red Group". Sorry I couldn't stay for dinner Sat night.

How did your wife handle those 120mph sections?

-Dennis

Wingnut, Timothy, and everyone else I met and talked to...THANKS! It was good to meet and talk again with all of you. I think everyone had a terrific time this weekend. I know I certainly did. For those of you who missed it...you really ought to get there next year. And for you red route guys...sounds like you had a blast. I'm sorta sorry I chickened out....nahhhhhhhhhh. With my base 01 I'm not sure I could have kept up anyway. Besides, the 118 I hit a couple of times wasn't that bad anyway.

A HUGE thanks to Michael. He and the crew did an outstanding job. Everything went like clockwork. This sort of event takes an unbelievable amount of planning and our hats are off to you guys for all the work you did to pull it off.

There have been pics posted here and elsewhere of the main event, but none of the gorgeous 356C that was parked outside the hangar bar after we got back. So...here's a few of that and some from the trip to the Benini Sculpture ranch. Now THAT was crazy. Out in the middle of nowhere is this incredible place, with hundreds of sculptures from artists all over the world and an art gallery, mostly of Mr Benini's work. Totally unexpected to say the least. It's well worth the mile or so of dirt road to get to it, and a couple more miles on the trails to view the sculptures. Anyway, here's a link to some pics. Hope to see you all again soon.

We obeyed all traffic laws and posted speed limit signs

The wife did a great job driving the first half of the day, but she was a little white knuckled when I took over the driving and we kicked things up a notch the second half of the day.

I was surprised that out of about 120 cars only 5 had the cajones to drive the speed course the second half of the day. Hats off to us and the other 3
Here are the cajones Boxsters



I look forward to seeing you down there again next year.
