We generally get anywhere from 80 to 100 cars at our event.

We hope to see some 928's this year. We love to see some more sharks at Eurosport DC!

Is anyone on the board going to attend? I think we had three 928's last year. Seeing the 928's keeping up with newer cars is a treat.

I drove the EuroSport DC tour route again today and am excited. It has wide range of curve types. Tight curves, sweepers, dog legs, and some long straights. The route has plenty of elevation changes and beautiful scenery. Many of the scenes could be featured on Hallmark cards.

We are looking forward to June 10th.

See ya there,

I always want to go to these events; Maybe I will park in the shade so no one notices my peeling clear coat or speckled hood (paint chips)...

Considering attending if I can talk the wife into it, but I have two questions: 1) passengers are the same price as drivers? 2) Why are Mercedes limited to such a specific vehicle?
