Default Porsche Meet at RUF North America in Dallas - Sat 2/12

Since the DFW Porsche meet this weekend fell through due to weather, I thought I would recommend an alternate date and meeting place.

After speaking with RUF in Dallas, they have agreed to host a D/FW Porsche meeting on Saturday 2/12. The meet will start at 12 noon and go until about 4pm. They will arrange for Hooters to cater the event, and have promised to have several cool RUF cars available for viewing at the meet, including the RGT RS. There may even be one of the RUF-Germany technicians in attendance.

It would be nice to have an idea of how many can confirm participation in this event, so please indicate if you can make it.

Note: I have no affiliation, direct/in-direct with RUF, this is not an official Rennlist or PCA meeting, and not a RUF sales event. Just a chance for Porsche enthusiasts to meet and share cars, experiences, see the latest in RUF developments, etc.

Too cold for the Bikini right now Will that thread ever go away????

And yes, yes we are seriously thinking of moving your direction. Not enough Porsche stuff in Arkansas to keep us busy. It's beautiful here, and boring....

Yeah, it's a great area up there but you are a long way from any action. We'd love to have you guys down here & we can keep you busy! See you in a couple of weeks.

Beater - good one. Unless a very highly modded 993TT shows up the only thing with more HP at RUF will be that pair of CTR2's they have.

Oh - and the 550 HP Cayenne conversion they're workin' on

Ben -

Christian (technician from RUF Germany) was working on the RUF Cayenne conversion when I was there last week... putting on new suspension components, etc. Amazing to see the 22" RUF wheels that go on that conversion...

Yep

22" wheels on a 5000 lb Porsche - not my bag - but to each his own. Now when I took that black CTR2 for a spin - that's my kinda RUF!
