That's awesome!! What did you use to film that.
Samsung digital camcorder. It has a stop-motion feature built in. It records directly to internal flash memory.

Just made it home- three cheers for Roger, Jim and the DFW crew, with assists from the usual suspects @ 928 Owners Club. Great job everyone. Well organized, good fun, food, & company plus a few gorgeous cars- the rest of you should have been there.

Man, I really hate that I didn't make it. Too much other stuff going on and couldn't break free. Looking at all the pics shows a good time was had by all.

Most definitely. The event was top notch. It was great finally putting faces to names from folks in the community.

Thanks to Jim Bailey for the advice on the fuchs!

My car was lowest of the 928 totem pole at the event, but it made it there in one piece. I've definitely been bitten by the bug!

Awesome event. Kudos to Roger and all the others that put this together.

Who's car is this?

It looks just like mine, with a nice bonus under the hood. Is that a Keele twinscrew supercharger?

cold_beer839 - Sorry you couldn't make it. Great time had by me. I hope you heal quickly from whatever procedures the vet performed on you. Is this the new health care they've been talking about?

What a great time! Many thanks to the DFW folks for organizing it.

Here's a stitched together panoramic from the upstairs window.

Many thanks to Roger, Jim M. John and the whole Texas gang for a great time! Wonderful hosts. Roger, thanks for letting us take the Weissach for a romp around Dallas today, Capt. Earl G. drove, I co-piloted, but he wouldn't listen....tried to get him to head northeast and not stop until we hit Philly!!!
