Ernest was there, I'm sure they'll be forthcoming!

Was a great event, I arrived in the first hour (barely) and parking was already on an improvisational basis.
Tally was North of 70 cars, I believe, and the caliber of the cars and participation of the enthusiasts and pros were all noteable.
I opted for the aftenoon fall festival instead of the onsite instruction- terrific little hilltop community totally turned out for their celebration of their roots, and of the season. Very neat. It was a looong caravan of 928s that rolled through the midst of it all! Speaking of fall, hope the locals can pull off another something or other before snow flies?

Thanks Greg, and the other event planners and partners!

So Jim, I don't think Beerfish will ever be content until you work up some phone dial mags for the moto-cooler...
Is it CIS?

I had a really good time today, and enjoyed meeting people from this forum. As I told many, today was the first time I have driven my 928 on the highway and for more than 12 miles. It really did well, and I look forward to bringing it to future Frenzies, perhaps painted less than four different colors

The drive from Odds and Ends Detailing (thanks to them for hosting) to the Octoberfest in Lovettsville was making me wish my shark had an automatic, but the beer, brats and Porsches made it all good. These are really special cars and I'm glad to be part of the Porsche community again after a 13 year hiatus.

Safe travels to all who came from far and wide.

I'll chime in with my thanks, the timing was great since I just got the car, and the help various folks provided with Q&A, troubleshooting my emissions fun, and all the rest, was all invaluable. I look forward to next year!

My added MANY THANKS to all the Potomac Region folks who helped in putting on another great gathering of wonderful "car people" with a major interest in the Porsche 928. Frenzy is always an enjoyable weekend, and I'm so grateful to make new acquaintances there, and to renew old friendships in this wonderful automobile community. The cars are indeed great, but the people attending are even greater.

Thanks also to Darrel at Odds & Ends Detailing for allowing us to invade his space for a full day and a half. That is a MAJOR commitment on his part to a Porsche model he does not own (nice 968's, however). And, to all the sponsors who provided $$ for support.

Cheers to all, and thanks for making YOUR time available to so many others this weekend.
