Default Meet-up within 75 miles of Portsmouth NH?

I finally met up with a fellow 928 owner in the area and we would like to set up a few meet-up gatherings with other enthusiasts.

If anyone is interested please IM me and we'll try to get it roughly organized. There is some fantastic driving weather coming up so let's not waste it.

Portsmouth is about 7 hours from me, but I'm always up for a spirited drive in New England so long as it's not raining.
When you thinking about it ?

Maine Porsche, by the looks of your posting times I think you would be ready anytime. I don't think you sleep.

Let's meet today...there is a car show at Porsche of Stratham, NH today for a fund raiser for " Make. A Wish". I go each year, and usually there is maybe only one other 928 there. Starts today at 10:30. I'll be driving down from Scarborough, Maine. See you there!

Perceptive eye.
I'm an EM/Trauma Doc. I hardly ever sleep. Not used to it.

Careful, that shift can mess with a person in the long run. I think doing that (and not even as a trauma Dr, I hasten to add) broke my brain. Or at least doing it in conjunction with the day job. So both circadian and quantity issues. Was 'for a good cause'. but I still wonder about the consequences long term with all the focus on amyloids/plaques, etc.

Yes, true and concise.
I am not at ease even when I am off duty. The tale is long.

You should, there used to be a pretty solid crew of 928s that got dispensation to park together. First year we rolled in the atmospherics were a little interesting. Good time had by all last few times I went. Unfortunately, I think I had to relinquish my Yank card so I'm out of the loop. Pics of past events are on the 928oC website though, if you'd like an idea of event. And a regional POC, more than likely.

Whelp OK, looks like the prior NEPCA/Larz photos were jettisoned on website transition...still a POC there though. Likely a thread on here too, somewhere.

Wow, lost decade in between...broke...brain....

I just posted the NERPCA concours event. Last year I was the only one there with a 928. Let's see if we can make a better showing this year.

Hey I think the Larz is great and I am sorry I will miss it for a biz trip but alas that's what pays the 928 bills

If anyone wants to plan a pre or post season VT Route 100 run I am up for it. My daughter lives in Stowe. I definitely DO NOT want to trip 100 during "leaf peeper" season - I'll kill myself.

There is always Route 1A along the coast in late October / early November before the ice. Our cars love that cold air snap and between town traffic there are some great bendy runs to challenge the skill of car and driver

I hope to be part of it barring work This month is a bummer. Utah, a wedding and Nashville all three weekends in a row - booked until 9/26.
