I was there racing my 69 911S (see my avatar) and saw the collection of beautiful 928's out there. Thanks for bringing them out. Lovely cars!

My kids and I really enjoyed the outing. Nice to meet so many Shark owners in Florida (instead of having to go to North Carolina @ SITM!)

Nice to meet George, Sean, Scott, Jerry and Francois!

Thank you VERY MUCH from my 9 yr old to Jim for giving him his big brother's seat in the 928 while my older son rode the track with Jim (video to follow)

And thanks to Mel for providing ample shade on a steamy day. These are the kind of memories that stick with a kid

Video from the Parade Laps... Audio and Shakiness not soo good. I think my 13 year old is trying hard for a bunch of new mounts for the vid. camera



Thanks again to Jim (G8RB8) for letting him ride shotgun in the boxster

My pleasure Trey. I'm glad we got some shots. I assume he found his hat?

Hi Mel,

Thanks for organizing and also OC for the caps. It was great to meet new 928 guys and also great to see kids getting the shark bug from their dad. We should definitely do the Sebring 48 and then discuss the 12 hours afterwards. I am back Nov 4th from Europe then we can working on it.

Yes, Thank you Mel for prodding us to come out to Daytona. It was great to see everyone. Some new faces and some familiar ones too.

Thanks to everyone who made the effort to attend. It was great to see some old 928 friends & meet new ones too. It really is more about the people than the cars. I'll post a few pics I took.......

He did find his hat, Jim. He was relieved that you left it for him

Thanks for the pics, Mel!

Before anyone thinks I've been pulled over to the 'dark side' of trickin' my car for concours.... I was the only 928 so the outcome was inevitable.

Actually, all the concours contestants made a pass by the 928 to pay their compliments. I heard nothing but good remarks all day, no matter where we all went, about how good it was to see 928's out there. And as a testiment to our dedication, at the end of the day, when almost all of the non-racing participants/spectators had departed due to the rain, there was a gaggle of the 928 diehards, standing in the rain, admiring Shawn's '82, slinging sea stories and planning the next event.

Thanks Juan. I saw your car out on the track. It was looking good out there
