We're booked, bringing the GT.
I agree with Jeff on the drive. We've done a bunch, and have led a couple, and Saturday afternoon is problematic. It was changed to accommodate the folks who only had one day, and I get that, but it compromises both the drive and the Saturday event. Sunday would be great, sunrise will be just before 7am.
The perfect tech session for Saturday would be Greg talking about anything. The funniest was Rob and I trying to do a Sharktuner session via remote access over Verizon-- Rob immediately drove into the only part of greater LA with no cell service.
Nice dinner, raffle and auction also-- for the model-specific stuff like Jeff's WP. We're in, and we'll help.

Totally agree with Jeff on this. We have so much collected knowledge along with an influx of new owners it would be a shame to trade half a day to share that information for a problematic fun run. Oh and some kind of dinner is a must.

Sharktoberfest 2016
Greetings Porsche 928 Owner!
We hope that you are already planning on attending this year's annual Porsche 928 event, "SHARKTOBERFEST '16" scheduled for October 15, 2016 in Anaheim, California.
This prestigious event has grown to historic proportions. Last year's event proved to be a tremendous success, gathering many Porsche 928s in one location.
If you had attended last year's event, you would already know what a sensational time was had by all. This year's event will prove to be even better, though it hardly seems possible!
The focus of SHARKTOBERFEST is the camaraderie among owners of this German super GT. You'll be able to share your 928 experiences with other owners and make new 928 friends at this event. We have scheduled in plenty of time for you to enjoy the many 928s on display throughout the day, from daily drivers to garage queens, as well as race cars and modified street machines. Plan to be amazed by the display of so many Porsche Type 928s in one location.
Sharktoberfest '16 will be a great opportunity for you to meet and view presentations from some of the most knowledgeable and technically adept 928 personalities in the nation.
Take the time to browse through 928 International's amazing collection of 928 parts! This will be a great time to get the items you need to maintain and enhance your car. There will also be other 928-related items available for purchase should you desire.
We are in the final stages of this elite event, but we wanted to get a message to you letting you know that this is an event that simply cannot be missed! We are so excited over this year's activities that we can hardly wait to tell you about them.
We will be contacting you again as we get nearer to "SF16".
For more information on the event and for all your 928 parts needs, visit 928 International at www.928intl.com.
For discussions related to Sharktoberfest, post in this thread.

the hotel can do dinner Saturday night but they'd like a head count which is difficult in advance
it might be easier to go to a local Pizza place or Blakes across from 928 Intl
