Awesome blast from the past! Even though I've killed countless brain cells I remember that day. And Eric was the only guy to ever race a 993 cab in PCACR...

That was one of the nicest sounding 993's I've ever heard. I was 2 cars behind him when we left that shop. I'll never forget that sound.

The first Sunday of the month from 8-11 there is a large Cars & Coffee in downtown Lake Mills, Wi.
It's evolved into a real nice event. There are a lot of Chicago guys that come up. Last time there was over 100 cars there. At least 20 Porsche's, classic Ferrari's, etc..
There is a fellow from your area that has a 959 that he brings ever so often. Would be great to catch up. It's about a 2 hour 15 minute drive from the loop.

I'd love to make it sometime. But I moved out to the Rockies almost ten years ago. However, I still do the clubrace at Elkhart every Labor Day weekend. Bring the new Lambo over this year. As you know it's less than two hours from Madtown.

Great. Send a PM prior to the weekend, but I'll be with Eurosport Racing. Since they are a race sponsor, their trailers are always opposite the tower.

Hey Mark!

Yes, Skip is hard to miss. In that pic you'll also spy a couple of other racers I think you know...
the aforementioned Eric Cyranski, and Jeff Phillips. Also David Rabjohns, but he never spent time on the 993 board.

No back seat? Any space for dry cleaning?

The trunk is a joke too. It won't fit a case of wine.

It's going to be the first time in over 20 years, that I am a one performance car guy. We got my wife a new SLK last year so we are good on convertibles. However, she lets me use that car about as often as I am going to let her use the LP.
