Exclamation TWO waves in Tulsa

After months of feeling stupid waving at every Porsche, I finally get two waves in one day! One from a red boxster and another from a yellow 911 turbo. This completely made my day. <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" />

Here in California, your supposed to wait to catch the third wave . . .

It's Friday, they must have been feeling it.

Heheheh! I wasn't in a Porsche today, but I saw them like popcorn, nearly every model from 912 on up, about 15 of them! That was over a 2 hour period, too!

The ones that had people in them waved, the empty ones just kinda sat there. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

Hell,

I can't even seem to make eye contact with any 944's I see around here.
And there's a 911 around every corner, so I don't bother.

I was out saw 2 carerras, 1 boxter and 1 951 (mostly in Brookside) either waved or flashed and they either ignore you or look at you like you're stupid.

I saw a 944 cab in Scottsdale, AZ yesterday, while waiting to get on the freeway, then passed a 996 turbo on the freeway.
I don't flash my lights to other Porsches because I think most of them wouldn't understand the meaning. They'd think I'm some *** trying to get them to move out of my lane.

Got my first wave yesterday. I pulled up alongside a 912 on the freeway, we made eye contact, gave each other a nod and a wave.

Yesterday was most definitely a Porsche-driving day, I saw sooo many, and I got my first wave back from a '97 Targa
