Steve,

I think I was talking to Pong when you took that shot of him motoring down the road... I heard you on the radio. Have a nice drive tomorrow... we're ready! You guys are AWESOME!

Have you guys decided exactly where and when to meet up at MSR? When do you plan to drive back up to RUF? I have to get some stuff out of my garage at the track, so perhaps I could meet some of you and maybe even make it back to RUF with you if the timing works.

David,

We're planning to leave McKinney around 6:45-7:00A for MSR and leaving MSR by 10:00A at the latest to get to RUF by 11:00-11:30A. I hope you can join us and if you have any suggestion where we can meet up on the way to MSR, I'm open it. Looking forward to meeting you.

When you get to MSR, look for polar silver #700 with the black bra on the front, and the dark blue Elise. I'll keep my eyes peeled for you!

Looking forward to it!! Yippee!!!

It was really great to meet the California Kids, Pong, Terry and Steve - what a great group of guys!. Good to see all you local guys as well. Some really amazing cars out on a gorgeous Texas day. Thanks to Wayne, Hans, Bob and the rest of the RUF team for a great lunch and for opening your doors to us. Here are a few pics from the hoedown.



















Pong decided to test some new aerodynamic aids

It was so great to meet everyone today. I wussed out of dinner (sorry!) because of familial situation at home w/the little ones... I was afraid that it would happen. Any interest in a lunch tomorrow? I could meet out in Plano/Mck, or whatever is convenient?

What a great day, sorry I had to leave early, but it was really nice to meet Pong, Steve, and Terry, as well as all the local guys I had never caught up with. Tony and your lovely wife Jody, Dan, Marvin, and all the others. Also great to see Greg and Steve again. A really special thanks to Hans and all the guys at RUF for hosting a wonderful lunch and open shop day (and finding a new battery for my remote so I could leave!) Man, I need to get polishing on my 993, Tony's incredible car has inspired me!
