I wouldn't trust weather forecasts for anything longer then 24 hours ahead (and even then, they can get it wrong too). But yea, that would suck... Still planning to come, but if it does rain, I might leave 928 home...

SUNNNNNNNNNN BURRRRRRNNNNNNNNN ..........Don why did you post that weather forecast; the forecasters seldom know what's going on, they look next door(state) the day of then they're still not sure to get it right.
Sunny and mild ( high of 73degrees ), winds at 10mph, prices just right with the liklihood of a great turnout of SHARKS and some other P cars
"TONKA" will finally win the concours and buy drinks for all !!!!
FRAGGLE will finally love my car with the saweet new NISSAN rear bumper

Forecasters never get it right to the good. It's either as bad or worse than they forecast. We'll see though.

I'll be there rain or shine. I can't wait! I'm a Porsche Swap Meet Virgin.

Rick, you're absolutely right about forecasters' accuracy, but I'd take the job. Where else can you get paid a couple hundred k to be right only 1/2 the time? Cows have a better sense of future weather trends than some meteorologists.
But regardless of weather, my chances of making it this year are looking good. Finally.
I'll be in my D/D this time, since the GT is making a very subtle but unsettling sound when hot - like a tensioner roller bearing (?).
Kevin, are you still thinking of making the trek?
