Thanks to Specialists and others for the door prizes. Last year I won a calender, this year a carbon fiber strut brace. WooHoo! I also won a Miller Lite cap at the Tiki bar at Best Western. Very nice. I should've bought a lottery ticket.

Heinrich's Photos
I took several hundred photos. Some were excellent, some were ok and some were wasted due to driving while snapping. Here are a lot of the good ones IMHO:

Just so we're all on the same page: Any pics of the speedometer showing erroneously high speeds were taken on wet roads at under the speed limit, while the wheels were slipping, causing the speedometer to incorrectly indicate high speed. At no point did we exceed posted speed limits.

Great meeting you Heinrich - great that you made the trip out east (where it doesn't rain?). Beautiful GTS! With it's rarity, I guess if I wanted one just like it I would probably have to wait for you to sell it.

I don't want to get off topic but here is what Eric and I did on Monday on our way home from SITM. and a link to the rest of the pictures if anyone is interested. 928 content: We drove our 928's to Mammoth Cave National Park. http://picasaweb.google.com/928drvr8...33748727107842

Two other things here....
1. The Roberts' house/compound is awesome! You have a beautiful chunk of the planet there. But you probably know that!
2. Did anyone get any unwanted presents from the law on the trip to or from the event? I was amazed that we could travel in a fairly large group from Texas at such a high rate of speed for about 2400 miles with no unwanted attention other than some "road rage" from a couple of fast lane squatters on I-40.
