No one in our group thankfully, but very close for a few of us.

I was drving near Concord on the way to Charlotte; got off the main highway and parked under a bank drive-thru just in time.

I only lost one tree in the back yard but a mile down the road from me looks like ground zero.

Here is a video, my prayers go out to the famlies caught in the storm.

Yeah. He and I exchanged emails. All is good. Damage down the road aways... But they are fine.

Oh... And he's now taken over as NC coordinator of the 982 OC... I had to join after that!

Was wondering if you guys are going to meet this saturday. I am new to the 996 community and would like to get together with fellow owners to absorb as much info as possible. If so what time do you usually show up.

Dave, did you end up buying the car in Chicago? Are you still shopping? Just curious where you are in the process.

Thumbs up

Gorgeous day this morning at coffee. Jeff brought out the Miata, and a friend of another brough his BMW M3 track car with LSx install. Bruce is back from another hard-earned vacation.
