Went to the Sunrise to Sunset Rally. Pretty cool event. Friday night there was a reception at the Porsche dealer with Derek Bell as guest of honor.
Saturday morning early breakfast and off we went.
A few photos from the event.
We felt sooo sorry for this guy... This was getting out of the hotel, in the first turn... that road was a 20mph section...
The owner of Hotel Isis had a reception at the end of the rally, very nice of her. I was humbled many times by her knowledge on race legends, tracks, etc...
At the end we were so tired that I forgot to take a photo of the sunset... it was beautiful.
Overall it was a great weekend with great folks to share along the way and some great backroads.

I didnt drive either car this weekend. I built a outside of the pond biological filter for my fishpond this weekend. Makes it a lot easier to clean it when it gets all clogged up and the fish crap that it collects is great for the potted plants.
Marc have you tried putting your car up on the lift yet?

Miss the days when we had sorta organized leisurely tour overnighters out here. We had a lot in Arizona when I was there 20+ years ago. Now there's really no reason to take a car out unless you're strapping a helmets, HANS, and suit.

My look would have been different with that girl in that avatar... But, I have to say, I felt like a kid at a candy store. You have to get the next CAR magazine with Derek testing a line up of Porsche. He went on to share the test drive of the new GT2 and we were all laughing when he said that the journalist turned green... even worse when they get back to the pit and the camera man tells them that the system was not working and they had to do it again (at which time he went even faster).Well... maybe the wife photo came out better...

I learned that accelerating rapidly from a stoplight directly onto a freeway entrance ramp, with nary another car in sight, and backing off right at the speed limit, is grounds for reckless driving in Houston.
Fortunately I was let off with a stern warning...
I also had a beautiful silver 993C2S pull up beside me, and I thought...how in the heck do his tailights have such nice red color while my new ones are still pink!
