I am sure many are already aware, but this event is not to be missed. Put this on your calendars.

Absolutely. Also going to hit the club race, etc. on Saturday. And then there's some C&C event at the Rose Bowl Sat AM?

I'll do like last year and live post to the Facebook 993 page.

Tempting to make a So Cal trip of it. I'll be at the Porsche Museum the weekend follow...so perhaps risking Porsche overload?

So bummed that it conflicts with the Cup races at California Festival of Speed in Fontana.
Racing vs the best cars and coffee ever...... Racing for me.

Given the Sunday schedule has racing 11:20-12:30, then a combined race at 2:40 for 1/2 hour.........coupled with how many cars drop out after Saturday........I think Saturday at the track will be a full day.

Unless, of course, you like the spectator experience that is Time Trial sessions.

Yeah, that video pretty much scared me off. No biggie, I'll be over at Fontana, maybe working the race if a friend needs help.

Friend down there is looking to get us a table at one of the go-to, see-be-seen restuarants Sat night, if that's appealing to anyone.

Not a spectator, POC GT3 class cup racer... I prefer seat time. After attending both 14 and 15, Luftgekuhlt 16 will be hard to miss.

Excited to see 993 RLers & rides + L.A.'s Luft-loving 'cult'!

On the road to Cali today.
Luftgekühlt Sunday
Happily surprised to receive organizers' invitation for special display.
Suspect I have a certain RLer to thank for that

The mascot "LuftAuto" (in image below) will be sold by Sotheby's to benefit pancreatic cancer research.

Luftgekuhlt 2015 was an awesome show. The event was more than just great cars. Hopefully the crowds won't grow too large now that the words out. I'm looking forward to it rain or shine.

I'll be there with some of the Driving While Awesome crew. My 993 will also be in the curated area 97 OB C2 sitting at RS height on Fikse's. I'll def keep an eye out for ya!
