Hmm. Late Saturday starts are often the result of late Friday stops. Just guessing...

Were you able to get new tires to replace the ones that got slashed at the event today?

^^ that must have been shortly after lunch, Rob? My car is still there - last one on the left at the end of the video.

I left around 1:30 after my windshield replacement was done.

There were many more cars than shown here. All those empty spots were full around 10:00 am.

Did anyone get a car count?

80 mph + 4th gear through Virgin River Gorge = Jollies.

Great get together. Safe travels for everyone heading home.

I enjoyed this year Sharktoberfest more than most. It started with hanging around Greg Browns shop and having lunch with the crew and Rob Edwards on Great Friday! Saturday started off with Jeff (speedtoys) and Mark Woudsma (thanks for the coffee and donuts) while they polished up Jeffs spectacular new black S4 paint job. Best looking Black paint I have been exposed to. This was followed by Mark Anderson flying low with his very clean 86.5 5 speed that gives me much pleasure to be in its company. I happen to have a very nice one also! 928 Int. was all prepared for my windshield replacement (with antenna) at 8:00am with the very talented Gabe to install it. This install is well worth the drive from wherever you are located. I came down from Seattle mainly for mine. The BBQ lunch was excellent as was everyone associated with 928Int. and Marks wonderful wife and daughter.
It was also so nice to see Dan H. again all cowboyed up and looking sharp as ever. I also want to give Randy V a big thank you for two wonderful bloody Marys. I departed for a return 1300 mile trip home around 2:45 pm and landed in Mukilteo Wa. without a ding by the State PAtrol or a rock in my new windshield. Thanks to all for the great time.

I also had a great time on Saturday. Great to see everyone again, some for the second time that I had met last year, others that I have known longer but dont see often. And some new too, that I had only met online here or on Facebook! We need to do this more often.

I was also honored to be asked my Mark A to critique/evaluate his 86.5 (its amazing) for potential future Concours entry!

Here is some Pics!

Thanks for taking the time to go over my car. I plan on addressing each item to finish making it as nice as I possibly can.

Was great to be at Sharktoberfest. Met some new friends and reconnected with some old.

Thank you Mark and Renee for all the effort you pour into the event.
