Yes this is the exact same as Rubystone, as you can tell by its current German name "Sternrubin". Renamed as Ruby Star for reasons I don't know.

Couldn't agree with you more. The location got rid of the concurs guys and brought in the enthusiasts.

No way guys, the location was absolutely perfect! If you look at this pic I took, it actually looks very similar to some of the old buildings at the Porsche Factory. I'm guessing that wasn't just a coincidence and is in part why they chose this location.

Would you have preferred the lawn at Pelican Hill?

This event, was not that... i think pretty much everyone there thought the location backdrop was excellent.

Time for Hurley Haywood to organize something similar on the east coast. Can't let that PL and his SoCal buddies have all the fun.
