Default Porsche Parade 2013: Driving from SLC to Traverse City, MI

Anyone else planning on making it this year?

I will be driving from SLC starting 21 June. My plan is to make it from Salt Lake to Des Moines the first day (1,067 miles) and then from Des Moines to Traverse City the next day (634 Miles).

The drive will be mostly Highway, especially out west where I'm sure it will be boring...

My ultimate goal would be to see if anyone else may be attending, and who also may be taking the same route. It would be nice to meet up with anyone who plans on making it.

I will be there. Unlikely that I will bring a car. Parade in a crappy rental car. I always work AX. Are you running?

Ronin, are you going to try and make it?

We'll be bringing a few cameras again this year. As of last month, this Parade is shaping up to be one of the biggest in over a decade. We're only bringing the 968 (which is making it's concours debut!) because we didn't want poor Darwin's car to get eclipsed again. Can't wait to get there!

If your coming from out west you may be driving by Gingerman Raceway. I will be racing my 944V8 Saturday and Sunday in ST2. Lots of P Car guys will be racing that weekend. Nice little track.

I also may attend, we have a business in Traverse and my folks and family live there.

Great Town.
