Bay Area proper make more sense? I'm 4 miles from the Oakland airport. Or if you're flying into SF, BART from SFO puts you off at the Coliseum 3 miles from my place. Could even do an SF airport run if the timing worked out.

The word around the Porsche community is that the Rennsport Reunion will be back for a fourth iteration. The previous RR, held at Daytona Motor Speedway was a huge success, with the next one hoping to build on that success. Porsche has supposedly committed to bringing their entire inventory of historic racing cars from the museum to Californias beautiful Sonoma Valley. Laguna Seca has long been a part of Porsche’s history, and it is the perfect location for a celebration of their racing success.

Book your plane tickets and hotel reservations now, as the best accommodations are sure to fill up quickly. Mark your calendar for October 13-15 2011, and we hope to see you there!

You'd better be there or you'll be on my poopoo list and then we wouldn't have any more fun.

Ken ~ If you can rent it, please do. Don't hold it up for me to be able to take out on a Parade Lap. I've been on the track before while others haven't. I'd be happy riding shot gun with anyone who has an open passenger seat and I think there might be a few of those. Maybe I should ask.

Bought '3-Day Admission & Paddock with Porsche Car Corral Pass' & 'Parade Lap' tix.

Jo-- Thanks for the info & messages. You get my belated Christmas response?

I'll probably miss August's Monterey, CA car week
... but should re-renter the country in time for this!!! (...if that falls through, there may be an extra Corral + Parade Lap tickets for sale later )

Staying near Del Monte golf course (zip 93940), & confirmed room for two other RLers I hope to pleasantly surprise soon ... wish I coulda found rooms for all of RL.
Excited!

Ken-- I call dibs! If my red jalopy doesn't arrive AND another RLer's offer to drive his 993 falls through:

Buying dinner for you & your wife a fair price to drive whatever 993 you leave me?

SHOOT, I'd buy him and his wife more than dinner to drive a car for the weekend!!!!! You have to think of something better than that


As for Tarpy's It would be okay on Thursday, but forget it on the weekend. Remember the parking nightmare last time? Robert drove around the lot for almost a 1/2 hour looking for a spot and was lucky to find one that was barely big enough to fit the MINI. I love Tarpy's but not THAT much. It's gotten too popular. There are other places in town with bigger lots and food that is just as good, I'm sure we could find somewhere for a GTG.

Uh yeah, it's going to take some cash money to convince Karen she wants to ditch the street car off to a visitor, and ride up/back/around in a car that could make a good showing in any but the sports racer/prototype race groups............... So how tough IS it to actually enter the races???? With either of the faux RSs, 993 or 911 variety, if the 910 is a no-go.

(Last time the '73 was on track was there actually, the '04 Sports Car Invitational.)

If you ordered it, you'd have plainly seen it is on Saturday.

Ordered my tickets thismorning. Corral and parade lap as well. Parade lap Saturday? Sounds great! I bought my tickets over the phone early today and was most definitely not told what day the parade lap was.

Speedy coming Jager??

For those of you on the Left Coast who were not able to attend RSIII in Daytona back in '07, don't miss this opportunity to see an incredible assembly of famous Porsche rennwagens and their drivers. RSIII was the best motorsport event I've ever attended (and I've been to a bunch!).

Yes, yes it does. Sometimes internet access isn't always available. It obviously is now as I'm typing this but it wasn't as I was driving down the highway in a no-cell-service area earlier today.

Sorry for asking questions that have answers elsewhere but there's nothing wrong with repeating information here IMHO.
