Read more about the high-tier award winner here. Its owners were SO great to meet, as well. The car & their charisma drew crowds to these Speedster celebrities.

After judging completed, Rick & Lori were interviewed about the rare Speedster. Keep an eye out for their upcoming PCA video
As predicted, the new video:

However you add it up, it equals lots of 993s, RLers, & fun
"We have 2,000 of our friends & family here at Porsche Parade."

Which way did you decide for your big day -- 993?
Ah, your new 'Just Married' avatar says it all

BTW, congratulations on your incredible Concours score, JD!

'Speedy' had a good day. Maybe the best award?
...Based on children's simple pure passion, the Little People's Choice is the 1st annual Concours award solely from kids.

Recall Seinfeld's video of how Porsches are like marbles:



Yup -- my little ones would agree with that Choice award!

Thanks, Nick (& family!) ^^
The inaugural award was the brainchild of PCA's new President, Caren Cooper.

If you find more 993s from Bruce Sweetman's "The 60th Porsche Parade 2015" gallery on BruceSweetman.com, post 'em here!

Dick-- When I admired RLer Mr. Incredible (Tony)'s WB Tramont wheels at Rennsport Reunion V, he mentioned that you helped get his dialed in.

With a 993 as gobsmackingly gorgeous as seen in Bruce Sweetman's photo, I bet other photographers were aiming for shots of your Turbo, too!

You have any Parade pics & memories to share?
