Yes, I'm sure we'll be able to work something out and I'm not worried about going hungry. Anxiously looking forward to the trip. Just ordered new wheels for the Pepper, sounds like they'll be here in plenty of time to get on before the drive over (I'm hoping).

Also, I am assuming it is the Red Rooster and not the Red Roster. Is it on the north or south side of I-40?

Travis, some of us from DFW plan to meet you for lunch. Right now I know of three of us, but I will hopefully get you a better count as the weekend approaches. I think most of them do not have 993s so they may not know about PMing you unless you are cross-posting.

Yes, there are other places, but the longer Spirited drive is the only one that allows time for breakfast. The other runs are shorter, not allowing the time. The hotel restaurant serves good food, and we typically eat breakfast there. My only complaint with the restaurant is that they open late for breakfast. I seem to recall it was around 7:00am...
I would advise eating there anyway, since the War Eagle run is becoming so large, it takes them a while to feed everyone. They have limited seating upstairs in the War Eagle Mill. Cool place though!

I'll be in the Cayenne so most likely I'll bring up the rear, however that thing can haul though.
The guy I've been talking to about his 993 is finally back in town (NE) but it would be pushing things to get it before Palooza. The one in TX would be doable but the seller is difficult.

I will have the tow strap in the back in case you crazy 993 drivers try to go off-roading. Hopefully no one will and it won't be needed.

Prints
I wanted to come up to Ft. Smith, but I really needed to prep (frame) my images for my exhibit at Palooza. I have about 7 prints I'll be bringing. I have some prep to do for the silent auction as well.
You guys need to do this again soon. Maybe we'll get some good weather in December (ha)...

In looking at the current Porsche Palooza count, we have 162 cars registered! Last year we had 171, so we should be very close, possibly more than last year! Good news, especially in this economy.

We just got home from our pre-Palooza weekend.
You all are going to have a blast. The roads are just incredible.
Yesterday we took a long, long drive. Likely 200 miles of Arkansas' finest roads and scenery.
Attached are a few shots.
Have a great time!
