In any case, I'm pooped. If I get the time, I guess I'll post my pics at some point. Thanks everyone for coming. It was a glorious day in more ways than one, but mostly, because of the people more than the cars, as usual. The cars were a very close 2nd to the people, though.

If I could figure out how to add pics to my Rennlist gallery I'd love to know. Then I could post pics here. It seems like it logs me in ok but I can't get the scripted window page to appear... and it says I'm not really logged in at all.

One other thing, 944 Turbos are REALLY freakin' fast!!! It pretty much blew me away, literally.

Cheers,
Steve R

Steve - did you make a right on MV ave, or you went on to Goshen? Sort of lost you guys at that point. I hung back for the other guys, and led them out to 270.

And where's the bird pic? And the F car...lol

We ended up going straight at the MV Ave turn, down to Goshen, then 370 - 270...

I was 3rd back behind Steve, and had the GPS tracking us during the drive...

Missed that turn altogether. We just stayed on Snouffer School Rd and took Shady Grove to 370 to 270. Oh well, guess I should have driven your part of the route after we changed it earlier this week (before today, because I didn't know where I was going!).

Ok, too much traffic out there today. Did you notice the horseback riders weren't too thrill with us?

Well, I finally got the Rennlist Gallery to accept my photos. Here goes... not really sure I'm adding much to all the great ones already posted but:

This is the first car to show up after me and Tony got there... ever seen one of these before?





Here's a picture of me AND the car


Oh so sweet wheels and body and color and, well, everything


Could it be, the cleanest 993 on the planet? Hi AOW993



He came all the way from Lancaster PA! And yes, he only wanted a Speed Yellow car when deciding on purchasing one. Here's his 2008 beauty.


They just bought my next door neighbor's cherry 87 Carrera this week. Already been to a PCA breakfast yesterday AND a Rennlist Meet and Drive today. Now that's getting your feet wet, fast.


That's one happy owner, the nicest 87 we've seen in a long time.


More to come soon...

Sweet mother mercy, a gorgeous GT3 in perfect shape. And, a very nice owner to boot.


Perfect for track and street.





Ooh la la... what a cool view from behind


A 68 912 that spends a lot of time on the track.


912



Why this bird walked so close to us and just sang and sang we'll never know. It was so odd - it was so close we could have just picked it up. I guess he was really into Porsches


Everyone needs an LT1 engine in a 944


A gaggle of cars


One gent showed up early in his 89 MB 560sl, stunning car. He had wonderful car stories to telll He also has a 993


Sweet


Oh yeah... a beautiful 85 308 that looked brand new


Really cool car




An proud owner and his baby. A 25 year old Ferrari that looked new


Looks like an airline cockpit


You could eat off of this

Last batch
Neat MD license plate


The drive from my car


Messing around after the meal at Hard Times Cafe


Hard Times Cafe line up


This was a REALLY fun day.


Thanks everyone for showing up. Each one of you added something great to the day, even the bird. Porsche people are some of the most interesting folks out there.
