A great ride down.. met some super cool people... and.. came home with unexpected bragging rights. My wife, kids, and friends think I'm a star now. Thanks all!!
Great weekend, thanks guys! I met so many new friends and saw a lot of old ones. The weather was awesome, SO many great cars! CanaDan, congrats on your trophy! There were very worthy competitors in the class however driving a 30 year old 951 year round as a daily is already hard to fathom, but doing it in Canada, and then driving to join us, wow! 1 Lart magnet made it home on the roof of the Touareg, I'll keep that one. Sorry if she wasn't the fastest but I'm super proud my 18 y/o +2 days daughter Mary was able to complete her first DE on friday with a flock of fellow 944s! The 4runner pic was from a offroad event just a couple miles south of Nelsons at Southington off road park. I hope to take my Land Cruiser there soon. anyway...pics!!
Way to hustle, Mike! Nice driving, great camera angle, soundtrack etc. I pitty the fool that tries to outrun you! (esp if you get to use your car at work!)
The baby pic is Mike's fresh daughter Allison, at less than two weeks old they needed a babysitter at Nelsons while Mike took the recently lightened Mom out for a few hot laps. I think his wife asked Mike if there was ANYONE in the crowd that Mike would trust with his newborn. The only possible reason he had to choose me was I was sitting next to my 18 year old daughter in her track outfit, and it actually looked like a was a GREAT DAD at that specific moment. I almost felt like a candid camera moment when a strange young woman walks up and hands me, an old big scary guy, her treasure in a car seat. Honestly the little darlin slept thru every screaming blower that went by, just like mom said she would. We had a plan in place if there was a problem, we would throw the black flag at the fast white mustang. That was not Mom's idea, it was mine. I DID have a problem with this fly that kept trying to land in the seat but I made sure to defend her. Honestly, though, Thanks Mike for trusting me and I hope you have similar adventures with your little progeny as I have had with mine!
Great video, Mike. I got shots of most of the guys in group I and A. If anyone is interested in shots of their car - let me know. I'll see what I have. In the meantime....
