Porsche Headquarters? Porsche experience? What the... why don't I know anything about this place? I'll have to google this NOW! I need to drive down there in the next 12 months, wherever the heck it is to check it out. And whatever the heck it is.
GREAT PICS! The airplane taking off the distance makes that an ever better shot. FANTASTIC!

Thank you Sir.
It was actually landing. This place is right near the Atlanta Airport, so watching planes and porsches together all day.
YES, you need to look it up and come do the whole track / off road track experience. I'm going to try to do it very soon myself.
I live just about 15-20 mins from here, so if you come down, Hit me up and we can meet up.
I tried to time the pic when I saw the plane coming in from the left. It worked out pretty well. I thought it'd make a cool pic.

Sweet! Thanks to you and your pics, heading down 7/27/18 after work to Atlanta, I booked the Porsche Experience for 9am Saturday July 28th. Then lunch at 1130am at Restaurant 356, then the Delta Aviation Museum at the airport as well after that, dinner near the airport somewhere before heading back to DC late Saturday night by plane. YAY! We have a Cayman reserved that we're splitting - 45 minutes each, me and my buddy and the driving instructor. Pretty reasonable day - $175 p/p plus the lunch and the free tour of the facility. Life is good. The GT3/Turbo was $450 each and I didn't feel like it was worth the cost differential at all. For the price difference I get a free flight down, dinner, and lunch.

Great photos, great car, good food, happy people. Thank you for sharing.
I had a great lunch at 356 when I was there- everything nicely done, great service. If anyone goes during daytime, the coffee shop has some nice pastries and coffee. Good for breakfast, and the employees of PCNA have no problem in interacting with guests. Southern hospitality is second to none. Great people in Atlanta. I had a great day there. Worth flying form LA for just 1 day.

Took my second trip to the mountains with my Turbo S. This time we went to the Fontana Dam North Carolina area, Deals Gap (Tail of the Dragon), and Cherohala Skyway. Went with my ZO6 Friend and his buddy but it was a large group meet from around the country. A group from the Youtube channel "Obsessed Garage". Check out the channel if you like.
I have continued to fall in love with this car. Learning it more and more. So confidence inspiring.

Here's a short clip of us ( The group from the Obsessed Garage Youtube channel ) on the Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap. Crazy busy this day but we had a decent pace going at times.
We also did many other roads and the Cherohala Skyway.

Few pics I pulled off the US 129 photos site. Killboy was also up there taking pics. I might buy the real ones later but nice to have these for now for free.
Some good shots of my cars and others in the group. The Ferrari 488 was nice. Not a fan of the blue though.

Here are a couple of the Vids Matt put together for his YouTube Channel. The first one with the ZO6 (my friend Johns car), he following me the whole time and he got some great footage of my car. Matt has a GT3 of his own but didn't bring it.
The Second one has my car in it a few times, including a nice WOT 1-2 shift to go with the "fast group" on Day one to the Dragon (at 3:18 or so).
Third is the actual vid of Matt starting his journey to the mountains (first vid he shot / uploaded)
