Many thanks for a great afternoon to all the folks at RUF - Jackie, Wayne, Hans, Jonathan, Mark, Stephanie, Carlos. The food and hospitality were first class like everything else you do. Thank God for the spectacular weather!

Thanks to all who made the effort to come in from such great distance. I wish I could have visited with all of you. It is great to see the enthusiasm and passion you have for these cars.

Oh, Oh Pong!!! What Happened? Hit an Armadillo or something? Can't blame that on Rancho Mirage sand storm!!!



Looks like you guys had a great day.

Have a safe trip home and take lots of pictures in Utah

I have given the Ruf outing a lot of thought, and have decided this should be a weekly event. Thank you all at Ruf.

Kudos to RUF for hosting this event. I really enjoyed meeting, talking to everyone, and taking in all the machines at the impressive RUF facility.

It was great to meet the CA crew in person and see some of the DFW gang, some I haven't seen in a while. Thanks to Hans and Wayne and the rest of Ruf for putting together such a great event. Thanks to Pong for inspiring this Ruf gathering and to Steve and Terry for completing the three amigos. Also, congratulations to Javier on his beautiful "new" black Ruf Turbo R that he picked up. BTW great pictures Mark!

Edit: I forgot to mention it was great to see Chuck who came all the way from Tennessee and got to take a Dallas nail in his tire back home with him.

What I got from this weekend is that I need to get a louder exhaust, a rear wing, splitters, a turbo or two, ...

Thanks to all the RUF crew for the great party. I was by RUF on Friday and they put a lot of work into this

Only wished there was more time in the day.

What a weekend and what a great time!!

A huge thank you to Jacque, Hans, Wayne, Jonathan, Mark and the rest of RUF's crew... the event was first class all the way... including the cars that were there. It was great seeing my old CA pals (Pong, Steve, Terry) and it was great meeting Javier and Chuck (who drove from Memphis.) Believe it or not I didn't take any pictures because between Pong, Steve and Javier, there will be some great shots.

The CA RUF Gang spent the weekend with us in McKinney and how many people can say that they had three (3) RUFs in their garage... I did (pics to come). The exhausts notes from the three (3) RUFS in the garage was intoxicating and wicked.

It was great to see and met some new local folks.... Marvin, David, Jim... it was a pleasure meeting you. Patrick, Anthony, Jason, Mark, Dan, JT, John... it was great seeing you guys again. Adrienne, it was great seeing you and Keith Sat night... and I hope you have a great day at MSR today. I wished that I could have met and talk to many others that were there... really a great group!

The 3 Amigos took off this morning... they have a light driving day today as they're heading towards NM before cutting up through Utah on tomorrow.

David... thank you for your kind words, hope to catch up to you at MSR.
