I echo everyone's sentiments, what a great Frenzy! Best one ever. Very chill and FUN. I haven't partied like that in a while.

Darryl the host was super cool and taught me alot about detailing.

I enjoyed hanging out with friends new and old. Was happy to see a nice female contingent in attendance, most riding along with husbands at ridiculous speeds.

Got to drive a couple other OB's which was COOL, and John's "Beerfish" 84 Euro which is SICK FAST!

Had a nice long talk with Jim, the owner of 78 Euro #0029. Cool car with an excellent history. Can't wait to see it!

I really can't even begin to elaborate on the whole event. It really was that much!

I was totally comatose yesterday!

78 Euro ran flawlessly there and back.

Thanks EVERYONE. See ya'll next year, or sooner.

What a great event from beginning to end! It was great seeing all of those familiar faces again, and meeting so many new folks.
The 928 is a great car, but it's also the unwavering sense of community that the owners of these cars possess that makes the Shark a true 'enthusiast's car'.
Not only is the passion for the 928 alive and well as evidenced by this weekend's turnout, and how long and far folks traveled, but by the generosity of the event sponsors, the vendors and the event host.
Here's a clip of the well-attended Fun Run departure. Sound up!

Jim, I love this picture. Looks like your little OB is afraid of getting squeezed by the two big SUVs and it's eyes are popping out!

The hard partying late at night was another great part of this year's Frenzy!

Many thanks to Darryl for hosting us. Never realized washing a car was so complicated.

Great to see many old friends and make many new friends!!

Great to see Dave & Jeanie and Rob!

If it wasn't for the 4 fifth's of Vodka I might be able to remember your names, like Alexei, Joel (aka, Inigo), Rick and someone named Wayne. Or were there two Waynes or was I seeing double?

Then there was the patio party, after we all got kicked out of the dining room! Then there was an oreo moon. Then we got kicked out of the patio! Then everything went dark.

And where did Fraggle go? Fraggle - where are you?????????????

Seriously - had a great time!!!!
I had such a great time that I actually left with multiple aliases "Inigo" and "the 3rd Wayne" just to name a couple! After the after, after, after party I think Wayne and I got engaged

Default Frenzy 16 Summary

Great photos and videos, guys! Keep them coming.

If you couldn't make it to the Frenzy this year, here is a little summary of what you missed:

55 car owners and 22 guests were present at the 16th annual 928 Frenzy. The weather was fine, and it seemed like everyone had a great time.

Tech sessions were:

1. Our host, Odds & Ends Detailing, demonstrated the proper way to wash a 928 - using a two-bucket wash to ensure that no scratching occurred. We also learned about proper use of products to clean and protect the exterior.

2. Mike "Fraggle" Frachel gave us a tutorial on the electronics that control the engine cooling fans and showed us how to replace the power transistors in the fan controller module.

Our thanks go to 928OC for sponsoring our shirts again this year.

Also, we thank the other sponsors that provided financial support to this year's event:
928 Specialists
Classic 9 Leather Shop
928sRus
928 Classics

We had a slew of excellent door prizes to give away, both at the afternoon Frenzy event and at the evening banquet at the hotel. I think it's fair to say that everyone walked away a winner! Thank you to the many vendors and individuals that provided the great assortment of prizes.

Knack for finding the best of the best and shooting precision photos.

Nice shot of the captain and his silver artwork.
