Thanks for a great morning everyone - sorry I was late. We had a great showing of familiar and new attendees today:

Dell (the Early Riser Award - 996 Cab)
Rich (911 Cab)
Randy (996 Aero)
John (911 Targa)
Kevin? (Cayman S - Silver) *If I'm wrong, I apologize.
Manil (C4S)
Dave (997)
Charles (996)
Bruce (Cayman S - Red)
Darren (Boxster S - Yellow)
John (Boxster - Red)
and yours truly (996 Aero)

After some great dialogue, we had a great ride over to Brier Creek, followed by a great drive back to Apex to donate the toys.

Special thanks to Greg from the Ferrari Club for arranging today's toy donation drive. Thank you, Helmut, for keeping me from being lost. I was able to spot your new S2000 from a mile away, even though it wasn't easy to catch up.

Helmut, I would love to drive to the Brathaus some weekend. That would be well worth the drive. I learned from the Carolinas PCA BBQ run a few weeks back that I will drive quite a distance for good food!

Here are some photos from the day. Enjoy.

Forgot to mention that at Brier Creek, we met up with our a couple other Apex coffee drinkers:

Jeff (996)
Ralph (993 Cab)
Helmut (Caymans S and S2000)
John Alvi (911 Turbo)

Always great to see you guys!

I like karting outdoors at VIR when I'm already up there for another event and when the weather is good (not cold or wet). I expect that Sat mornings are going to be cold until Spring.

I also like indoor karting at Rush Hour Karting. While VIR is at least a 70 mile and 1.9 hour trip for me, RHK in Garner is only 23 miles and 0.5 hours away.

Might have belonged to Dell or Charles - you never know what they're going to drive to the Wake Zone next.

For those new to the group, I'm going to get a good ol' fashioned "***-kicking" now.

Wow. I'm sorry, Alex. I have a feeble memory. It was great to see you at Brier Creek.

Hey, everyone - happy rainy Thursday to you!

Just wanted everyone to know that I won't be able to attend our coffee mtg on Saturday morning - I'll be on my way back from Greenville, SC.

I hope you have a great time, and I wish I was going to be there. See you next week.
