Thanks for posting the pics Jager. I was good to see you albeit too briefly. I didn't prioritize my schedule very well.

It was more fun to show up and enjoy the party (Keystone 2009) than it was to host the party. With volunteering, supporting my wife's volunteering (banquet table decorations), and participating, the Parade was a blur and I'm still exhausted. I led tours of 102 cars on Tuesday (including Hans Peter, Wolfgang, and Ferdinand (Wolfgang's son) Porsche) and 65 cars on Thursday. If anyone is taking notes, more than about 20 cars on a tour through mountain canyons is ... difficult. Here are some numbers from the Parade tours:
Number of days: 5
Number of unique tours: 7
Total number of tours: 15
Number of registered tour cars: 779
Number of tour registrants: 1403
Total tour miles driven: 357,325.8

Glad you're enjoying the show - more to follow, including your Arena Red Metallic machine.

I bet the big stripe wrapped on your 993 made you easy to spot
BTW, any larger images to share of your renderings?

Unfortunately, I didn't get to see them, but I was thrilled to meet some important enthusiasts: RLers!
A blast seeing you again, plus great to meet 911Dave & Blake
...plus more of PCA's leadership.

Speaking of which, here's Leonard Turner, Panorama Magazine's Chief Photographer, stalking & shooting his prey:

Speaking of majestic sights:
the above Heritage/Historic display was literally at the steps of Utah's capitol building - an impressive feat for the organizers to procure such prestigious parking!

The Porsche Corral seemed endless. Lots of amazing eye candy. Here's a taste, for starters...








Look at all the P-cars ... & this is just in 1 of 2 directions
