Well that's a bummer, could always be worse though.

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?

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:

Cars

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


Saturday morning lineup.


View from the balcony: 2013 981- 2008 987- Scarlett.

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.
