Singers were not included on the 964 list and Gunter werks would of been in the 993 category doubt they be on the list as well.

For sure, I commented that at the show. Seemed a bit odd given their popularity.

Regardless, I really enjoyed it. Great venue and very well executed.

Great pics. Show seemed very well produced but I like where we all just parked together and walked around better. Less produced more casual

Thanks. I enjoyed the visuals and the way they tied in the DJ's to the respective themes, it was a nice change from standing around in a parking lot and talking about cars. I was on the first bus in, hence the few pics with nobody in them, lol! I had to get back to Vegas for a birthday party and left at 11 and was shocked at the shuttle line when I got out. There were hundreds of people and it was already packed inside. I'm not sure where they go from here?!

I was in on one of the first buses and out at 11 too. It was shocking the line to get in when I left.
thought the music was too loud and a bit annoying.....but the venue is hard to beat.

Got there at 7:45 and waited on line for 30 min. Funny how the bag line went twice as fast as the non bag line. Those who arrived after ten waited for over an hour on the line. I would be pissed but at the end of the day was well worth it. Will be hard to top. With pirelli, Leica, and a watch company I forgot the name of, this is officially a commercial event which loses the underground/grassroots nature. I thought the vibe last year hit the mark.

I heard a rumor at the event that the founders sold it. Apparently the new owner plans on doing these as worldwide events...

Few 964s...and then the ultimate 964 *IMO* RSR 3.8 - parked by attendants as close as possible to its neighbors, one of which a speedster with yellow tires.... Not sure who decided to park him with the masses...

Also talked to a guy with a great story car who was rejected...then I see some other cars there... I mean, I’m certainly no judge but it’s easy to imagine how this might be too big for a “selection” process like this. Can’t get em all right.

This was my first Luft and I had a fantastic time but it didn’t have the vibe I expected based on what I heard and saw online from previous events.
