We've always gone to The Cabernet Grill when in Fredericksburg. Decent steaks there; reservations recommended. Other attendees like the Navajo Grill, but I don't have any personal experience with that establishment.

Be aware that Fredericksburg is not a "foodie" town like Houston, so we keep it simple.

Just sayin'............

We made reservations at August E's...

Locked and loaded for an early departure tomorrow AM. Scarlett is washed and detailed as much as I can muster. Spoke with our drive leader; he has a Garmin GPSr pre-loaded with the drive route for me. Wonder what he's got in mind?

I'll be at the Officers Club shortly after 4:00. Wearing Gulf Porsche colors, and most likely holding a big ole Gin & Tonic in my hand.

See you all there.

Retroman1969 09-06-2014 12:31 PM

Man, just missed it. I'll have to try for next year now that I know about it.
Hopefully someone will be posting pics of the event? :)

TeamOxford 09-07-2014 02:21 PM

Just got back from the event. Put 800 miles on the Boxster, 225 of which were spent on flat-out, red-lining twisties of the back roads in Texas Hill Country.

Really fast group this year; I counted six times when we hit triple digits. Really had to thrash Scarlett to keep her 2.5L up with the 911s, but we hung with them all afternoon. :)

Great crowd, drive, food, drink, and especially camaraderie with fellow PCA members.

Only took two pics, there's a plethora of them from the drive on the Twisted Sisters posted here:

Next up.........PCA Palooza in Eureka Springs, AR in November!

What a great day of driving in the Texas Hill Country!

The pace this year was a lot faster than last year. (At least for me...) Could have been because I was the 4th car behind the route leader in the morning, and 3rd after lunch.

Some of my pictures:

Missed the Hill Country fun -- but sounds like you guys were faster than I was on the track :-)

If you ever get the hankering -- MSR-Cresson is awesome for Boxsters....

I got to terrorize a lot of higher HP cars because the grip and handling was so darn good.

No garage queen -- but she's a blast on the track....

Just got my numbers prior to loading up for the track.

Was a nice day, great group of people and cars.

Here are a few photos I took and uploaded to Photo Bucket, too large to load up here.
