It was a great time, weather held out just fine. Our NY caravan arrived and the lot looked empty until we saw everyone in the corner. I was thinking to myself "Oh boy, noone showed up..".

Fun fact, there was only one air cooled car!

Here are some of the pictures i took..

The Long Island caravan. Me and Dan (Jeeper31), and three other guys from the Pelican forum.


The illustrious cam tower inspection plug on Jeeper31's Turbo S!!





Wondering which way we need to turn....






The 928's both sounded rather beastly..


Matt's new 911SC Targa and Cobalts GTS

The 911 was probably the best sounding car that came, it also doubled as a great BBQ grill.

We grilled a few hamburgers on the rear whale tale.


Vin's super clean '85. Purchased from a grandmother who drove it to PTA meetings!!



Cobalt's GTS, Matt's 911 and one of Tom's many red 944's (this one being his 951).


I dont think Jeeper31's car is loud enough...


Things were nice until we hit the GW..


A good turn out (about 15 cars) and as usual, it was great to meet all you guys again, the 1/2 lb bacon cheese burger i had was epic.

Cubby's is defenetley the new meeting spot i think. I didnt walk out feeling unhealthy like at Rutt's or the Hot Grill. Also the lot is pretty big, as opposed to the other spots.

Nice pics! Is that exhaust close-up a custom job, or does someone make that?

Nice cars, great food, and cool Porsche owners. It was good to meet everyone. Now if I can just remember all the names I'll be good.

As I was admiring the color of Tony's 928 I realized Toyota swiped the color!

Tony's GTS has triple the displacement of that Corolla i think .

Atleast its not a Beetle.

I will make it easy for you and connect the name to the car.

Tom had the red porsche
Dan had the red porsche
Jon had the red porsche
Matt had the red porsche
Vin had the red porsche
A guy named Gordon had the linnen porsche

There, that should make it easy for you to connect the face to the name to the car.
