I'm game anytime, almost anywhere.

The most 993 TTs at one time for a gathering was probably in my driveway. We had 12 of them one time (just a strange occurance on a typical weekend BBQ day). I need to find that pic. Pretty cool.

although its not a mid Ohio or Watkins Glen, BeaveRun just outside of Pittsburgh has a good track, can be rented for the weekend pretty reasonably....likely has more availability than Ohio or Glen since it is relatively new. Not fast...only 1.6 miles can get to about a buck twenty on the back straight...not highly technical...but is fun and there is a ton of room. I'd be more than willing to look into it. It is right off the PA turnpike (I-76) 90 minutes from Cleveland, 3 hours from Buffalo, 4 hours from DC....

If Mid Ohio was an option we could likely get a lot of interest from several areas. From Central Illinois I can be there in 6 hours which is a short drive to hang out with Rennlisters. 
We definitely need some more events/gatherings.
Gordo, I'm up for St. Louis. Name the place.

I certainly could.

I'm up for track get together, but it sure would not be an easy event for somebody to pull together as just a Rennlist/993 event. (Insurance, etc....)
Why not use what's already in place ? Next season we should just pick one of the PCA regional D.E. events at a track (pick a region and track) and we all just all register ! We could stake out a section of paddock area for Rennlisters!
It seems like many Rennlisters talk about an event when they get home and other folks here say "Gee, I was there" - we should plan one ahead of time to concentrate on being there.
I saw "Dudley" at Lime Rock yesterday - I think he's hooked on this track stuff !

Not that this is central to everyone, but I know the first settlers region (lower VA) region tends to not have HUGE turnouts at their events. They are a great group to run with and tend to be very flexible......we could consider one of their events at VIR.
for the purpose of full disclosure and in all fairness to my chainyanking of Arrwin about the distance of W.G from him, I am not part of, but have run with FSR and am only 3.5 hours from VIR........my suggestion was for informational and discussion purpose only. No other affiliation......

I'm assuming that we'd be spread out amongst a few run groups, and of course folks that are really interested would have to sign up early in the registration cycle.
If we knew when registration opened for an event (assuming next season at this point), I would do sign up and do VIR. Ya ! Another new track to add to my list.
oops..... I only read the 993 board here and proudly display my "Rennlist" decal, but my track car is not a 993 ...... can I still play ??
