Cool, I'm glad someone went, good deal.

We were talking about what a snafu it was to schedule the open house at the same time as the autocross, because none of the participants could go. Now we can see it through your eyes...... though it sounds as though it might be a little milky.

This weekend has just been too cool. Does it have to end now?

I have to do that, too, but I've got a nasty *** driveway

Awesome pics guys! Somtimes, and I don't mean to offend anyone, but I just mean sometimes! I wish I lived in the States

I only drive it in the summer."

Listen bunghole, I should have pulled in and told them to tow your *** out of there altogether. I hate to break it to you, but you shouldnt be demanding **** like that when people are pulling next to you in nicer cars. Thats like me telling Dixon to move the Carrera GT the hell over because he might gouge my door.

Unbelieveable.

She sounds as bad as the azz in the red stock 944 that parked 3 cars down from me. When the guy was parking him, he was just outside of the shade-line (which was shifting his way as the sun was moving). He bitched about the fact that since he pre-registered he should get a shady spot. When the guy tried to explain that it will be shady on his spot in a little bit, he just retorted back with something to the effect of "well, if my dash gets cracked someone here better pay for it." And then he proceeded to bitch about the wax pencil number that was written on the corner of his windsheild to designate his class. Whatever. If I was that worker I would have been less than courteous to him.

Congrats on the wins guys. Those posers that think they are above all just give Porsche owners a bad name. The need to go over to the Benz arena.

I must say that the driving tour and autox was great. Wish we could have gotten our awards for the autox and a little better class, but oh well. Maybe the lunch of last year and guest lunches will be back next year too as those items seemed to be something to make me wonder if I want to spend that much for a concourse I am not competing in.

Yeah I had the pleasure of being trapped and not able to get away from her for a bit. A true example of why Porsche drivers get a bad rap, she was a genuine PCA snob, and she talked like Thurston Howell's wife Lovey. She definitely had a higher opinion of her car than was deserved, and especially with it being parked next to Chris' car. There was another guy who arrived late in a very nice red 968 who casually told Pete that he was sure if he arrived early enough that he KNOWS he would have won the 924/944/968 class. Must have been Thurston Howell himself.

These two are Murphy's Law at work, 'cause there always have to be a select few *** clowns to spoil things for all the other people there who are their polar opposites (read, "nice people"). I guess they serve our purposes well, giving us a laugh or two.

The guy had a very nice 968 but with this being a peoples choice vote you have to have a car that stands out from the rest. With all the beautiful red cars a red 968 just doesn't stand out.
I think the fact that mine was the only blue 944 and had the unique wheels was what put it over the top. With the D90's on the car Sunday it looked pretty average.
