Great! I look forward to seeing you guys. And can't wait to see that speedster..

Maz ^^ You might have to look in a dark corner or a broom closet for it
...but I expect your 911 to be under the spotlight!
Thanks, Ed! It was a very nice surprise to get a personal e-mail from the organizer himself, detailing new changes to keep the show fresh while also expanding what's already a very successful event: the Motorworks Revival is adding a 2nd hangar this year

Besides state-of-the-art planes & cars at a one-of-a-kind Jet Center party, it's patriotic & charitable, raising life-changing donations for a great cause that's motoring-related.

...& all that's before considering that McCall's should have a Singer 911 plus a 993 there

I hadn't heard about the Porsche drive. What are the details on that event?

JPP

^^^ I believe it's a dealer sponsored open house with test drives of their demo vehicles:

Back when I was a Mercedes and BMW owner Porsche would send me invites to things like this. Now I never get invites to anything anymore.

Maybe they know I am to cheap to ever buy a brand new Porsche.

My daughter and I will be down for the day (8/13) and we have a test drive scheduled in a 991S Cab at the Zentrum event.

I bet that you may be able to crash the event and snag a drive; the location is:

8000 Valley Green Dr.
Carmel, CA 93923

Not taking the 911 down (because I broke my left leg five weeks) ago but we will drive my daughter's go-cart down there.

Say hi if you see us (David & Riley)

Terrance Seto

I'll be there Saturday at various events between Cars and Coffee, Zentrum, Mecum and others, then back on Sunday with my 993TT at the Concours D'Elegance. Is there a way to get a parking pass for that event?
