There's a chance Speedy will be at Monterey car week this August in CA.
Smaller chance she'll make the July PCA Parade in St. Charles (Chicago), IL, much closer to you.
Stay tuned to this channel for updates

And to think people make fun of me for always carrying a polish towel and a bottle of Final Inspection spray Looks Great!

Oh, so THAT's what you think BoulderBobo makes fun of you for?
Thinking of that crazy cool day, I now remember that cleaning Speedy was about the last thing on my mind; you kindly helped out. The results speak for themselves
Here's a shot of the Guards Red rockets, trying our best to out-shine your clean machine, deservedly taking center stage...

Happy 4th of July!!!
Chris/Bob-- Remember joking about needing a white 993 that day with the red, white, & blue jets?
Even more true, now that it's time to say:
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY, Rennlist!
But, heck, they're German cars, not like these Corvettes...
(Photo would be better with the Thunderbirds flying over! )

Congrats Jäger. Speedy sure has been in impressive company lately and IMO she deserves all of the awards and attention.
Some day I'd love to see her in person.
Erik-- Road trip!!!
There's a chance Speedy will be at Monterey car week this August in CA.
Stay tuned

No specific commitments yet, but general schedule for my Monterey car week looks ~Aug 10 - 14.
May have to leave CA as early as Sat AM, Aug 14 to return home.
Fingers crossed to stay through Sat's Laguna Seca, & hopefully do better than 2009's long-distance 'meeting' with Jason

First is "New Old Stock" not scene yet on this thread, from photographer Angie McDonald:

Glad you enjoyed last year's 356 'group photo!' It's one of my favoriates, too; luckily have more like that.
You should really like last month's Speedster evolution shots with the 1952 Glockler Roadster that predated &/or inspired Porsche to make a 356 Speedster:

Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival at the Monterey Jet Center
Much more photos & fun on the "Monterey 2010 photo thread: Pebble, Laguna, Legends, Quail, etc. ...918 Spyder!"
Thanks in part to RLer PorscheMeister & others' enthusiasm, one of Speedy's many CA highlights was being hand-picked for the following by Mr. McCall (co-founder of The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering).
Posted today on SuperCars.net - "McCall's 2010 Motorworks Revival at the Monterey Jet Center:"
Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival at the Monterey Jet Center is one of the most exclusive lifestyle events of its kind in the country.
The one night event privately kicks off the World-Class automobile week held each August on the Monterey Peninsula.
With an "A-List" of VIP guests from Hollywood celebrities to Captains of Industry, this "Jet Set" crowd arrives in first-class style, to feast on the latest offerings from some of the world's top luxury brands in a relaxed and elegant party setting.

^^ Very well played, JP, but if only that were true!
Another 'stealable picure,' from the "Monterey 2010 photo thread: Pebble, Laguna, Legends, Quail, etc. ...918 Spyder!"...
I steal pictures. I think I have a problem ....
