Default PTS GT3 Milk Run 2019?

I'm waiting patiently for my Irish Green GT3 which will arrive in Q3 this year and in the meantime have been and will be following Montoya's thread tracking the PTS cars (all over the world really) which is an awesome thread - also very good the manual review thread on the strength of Calexio's post and many others. There are some really terrific builds here and coming out there and hopefully they will be driven.

https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3-...pts-order.html

Anyway it sure would be fun to schedule a milk run around June of 2019 (once the kids are off to camp etc.) in the center part of the country like Telluride or Aspen or something like that where all the N. American PTS GT (and non -PTS plus R cars) cars could meet up at. It would be very interesting to see many of them and meet the folks we are conversing with about this Porsche infatuation with. We would be coming in from Houston and it would be an epic drive plus its easy to get my wife to want to go to those destinations - just need to convince her that going in a GT3 with buckets is better than first class. If such an event could be realized, we would probably head north west through Austin towards the long desolate stretches of Texas highways before turning north through Santa Fe New Mexico and into the Rockies. Center locks be damned.... Maybe PCNA would arrange? I'm a member but know little about it.

Sounds like the beginnings of a western Smokies event to me 😀

Yeah but.... where are the better driving roads? Lebanon, KS? Or in the Rockies?

No bias here, folks.

True that but no hope in getting my wife to Lebanon...... My daughter will be in CO for a month at camp so completely self serving - totally indefensible I freely admit..... Colorado is a terrific destination to drive anyway...

Looks fun. Probably would ship the GT3 home and fly back which would make it perfect.

^ LOL, yes, sometimes hard to believe.

Let's make it happen. Loads of great spots, endless roads to drool over, good weather...

Great idea! I'm hoping my car comes back in time for Rennsport this year which should be another nice gathering of PTS cars.

It would be an epic trip to drive out to the Rockies, maybe go a little further north to Jackson Hole? Drove my Grand Sport through this year:
