Any 928's from Charlotte area heading down ?
Nice to see you this afternoon.

And for the rest of you, I do not have the highest number of the 928 guys either.
See you guys in the cold and early AM.

Yep, signed up for the laps.

Hope they organize the ''exhibition laps'' in classes so the 928s can run together....

Turn out was small, not all of these cars were Porsche's.
Far, far short of any kind of record I am sure.

I have been to a lot of car events in the last 40 years, and with out a doubt, this one was the most ill prepared one I have ever been to.
Very poor planning and even worse communications with the folks that paid to stand out in a cold wind blown parking lot for hours.
The folks that paid for 5 laps, well that was a joke of the first order.
It was late, and, well I will just say that is one event I will not return to.

This is a picture uncle Mitch took for us, the lack of communication prevented me from going with him to get some better pics.



I will post some more I took tomorrow or later today.
