Default Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion, get together on Saturday the 14th?

The Monterey Bay PCA Region has a Corral at Laguna Seca during the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion.
I’ll be attending on Saturday the 14th, will anyone else be around? It would be good to catch up in person.
Unfortunately I won’t have my car but rather a Mustang rental – but hey it might be cool to try something different.

Bruce

PS I'll be at Concorso on the Friday and Pebble Beach Sunday. Hopefully Gooding & Co auctions in the evenings.

I doubt you can park a non-Pcar at the Porsche Corral.

I know that, I'll be parking well away don't worry, but I hope to use the Corral as a base for the day. I'm buying lunch tix through Monterey Bay PCA.

We'll be at Laguna on Saturday the 14th as well. We're bringing the dog and other stuff to our place in Monterey so no P car or corral parking for me either. But it will be nice to get the S4 Avant on the road and let the V8 breathe a little. We'll certainly be hanging around the corral though. Maybe there's a way to connect.

I actually disagree with the policy. I do think PCA members should be able to come with any car they choose and park there. Visitors like yourself should be able to do so. I pointed that out to alert you to a policy I disagree with.

Just curious--do they charge to park your Porsche in the Porsche corral?

Yes they do, and Laguna Seca's Corral is a dirt field. Laguna Seca has paved premium parking which I would prefer.

Yes 55 smacks, oh & a free T-shirt, that probably costs no more than the iPhone4 bumper that Steve Jobs is giving away.

Yeah, seems like a bad choice. You'd think they'd be anxious to collect that extra $55.

I'll be the 40 year old guy (birthday tomorrow actually!) with a yellow LIVEstrong band on the right wrist and a green Porsche ball cap. I'll be there along with my Dad. Would be good to catch up Mike.

Happy Birthday, Bruce! I'll be the 60 years young guy wearing the blue Racer's Group hat and a white Porsche/Martini Racing shirt. Hope to see you there.

Happy B-day Bruce!

Would love to meet you at Laguna this year. Unfortunately I'll be stranded, working down in San Diego. (I'll be so glad when this job is done.)

Hopefully you come again in 2011.

If you're in the area on Tue. don't miss the "Concourse on the Avenue" in downtown Carmel. It is a free event, and maybe the best event of the week. It takes over many blocks of the downtown. Very laid back. All the best cars will be there. Tons of fun.

Enjoy your trip!

Oh, that's a bummer. I really enjoyed that event last year.

Thanks for the update Tony.
