Its that time of year the weather is getting nice and our cars are coming out of hibernation which means its time for a run. Our hawks nest run last thanksgiving was a great time and we had a great showing. I know many of you are heading to Hershey this weekend unfortunately I can not make it. But ill give you all some time to install your new pars and get every thing tested. So here is the plan,

SATURDAY MAY 19 we will be doing a run.

We have a few options,

1) the usual bear mountain run
2) the hawks nest run again
3) feel free to suggest some roads

Last time we were able to do both the hawks nest run and the bear mountain run it was a great day.

So lets start out with this tentative plan,

8AM those in the area meet at the Rye Playland Parking lot. I know its early but the hawks nest is not close.

8:30AM we hit the road for the Chillis we met at last time (ill find the address). If memory serves it will take about an hour and fifteen to get there.

10AM arrive at the Chills and meet with the Jersey group. This worked out well last time we even had a random 997 passerby join the group.

10:30ish we leave the Chillies and head towards the hawks nest. We can meet with a final group there at the burger joint we met at last time.

Noon: we head out to do the Hawks nest run. We will grab lunch there on the way back.

After lunch it is up to people to do what they want. Some of us headed south for the bear mountain run after and some people headed home.

This was a great run last year and I would love to do it when the weather is nice. I know its far far in advance but if I post now people will have time to plan accordingly.

Regards
Dave

I wish I could make it but I'll be out of town that weekend.

Also, if it's of interest, I think some other folks from the 993 forum are putting together a drive to Lime Rock on the same day: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...n-up-here.html

They organized another drive to bear mtn last fall that was a lot of fun

I have to say the run we did near Thanksgiving last year we had over 20 Porsche's at any one time, maybe 15 guys sit down for lunch, best part of owning a Porsche is time spent driving it and hanging with like people

For people looking for other nice drives, the PCA club race will be at Lime Rock on Saturday April 28 (next saturday). There will be about 20 944s in the SP classes.

We're down. Live in central PA and will bring an 85.5 NA and (hopefully) our 86 951 to the drive. <pending new brake booster>

301 is one of the greatest roads around here (been driving it for over 20 years on Motor cycles) the road past Camp Smith (the Tank) to Bear Mountain Bridge is pretty great too.

I may be able to make it.

87 944 C

nvm, he wanted to pay me under the table, no go, didn't take job. still free.

funny thing though(not to highjack thread), my "test" was a 90 s2 cabrio, new suspension, brakes, tune up. too bad, woulda been an easy test. can't highjack it anyway, i don't have enough people to take hostage, i like to shoot one to let them know i'm serious. then demand a helicopter for the getaway. i used to demand a 944 but they're are as reliable anymore.

at least once a week usally friday ill get off the taconic at peekskill hollow road to 301 going toward fahnestock park just to change up the commute ahaha actually that buddha statue is the best part about 301! one day ill have to stop and grab a picture with my car BUT way off topic heres a pic of my first bike! and heres one of my car lol so if your ever on 301 and see that porsche dont forget to wave and if you ever see that gs500 fear for your life!

I did this run last Thankgiving while visiting family in New York (I live in Atlanta) and had a BLAST! I plan to be in New York around the middle of May so I'll be able to this run again.... I don't think I'll be driving the 928 this trip, most likely the 968. The timing is just right for this run.. How lucky I'm I !!!!
