The 996 is the featured model. Combined with all the other car stuff that week, it’s a great time.

Come on! Another 996.2 GT3 will be joining me, driving from Greenville SC.

With 996 being the featured model, there is a dedicated parking area (it's on a golf course fairway). Hopefully, spots are still available.

I've gone once, two years ago, and it was a sensory overload. I only attended the WERKS Reunion then left later that day. This year I will be there a few days.

Signed up. Likely will be just for Werks and out, looks like the judged field sold out already.

Edit : Looks like this is available. 996 Display Parking (No Judging) 99-2004 911 ONLY

Very tempting. I'll see if my wife is interested.

Thinking we would probably stay in historic a St. Augustine bed & breakfast and commute.

My wife and I are headed down from Richmond, VA for the 2nd year. Really looking forward to it again. We are considering trailering the 84 Targa but it seems trailer parking, other than for the auction, is nearly impossible. Any suggestions?

Not my wheelhouse, really, but I'd imagine you could find a garage or self storage place (or maybe the Porsche dealership?) for a safe, temporary place to park your trailer.

Maybe we'll run across one another. I have one of your SK8 decks hanging in my office.

I sent a request to change my registration from general corral to the 996 parking and if they allow me to change I'll take the GT3
