I’ve attended Christiana C&C 2 or 3 times already this season and some of the same issues exist there as well. Sheer volume, etiquette and speeding are NO DIFFERENT there I assure you. The difference imho is we are situated so far into an adjacent corner of a large mall complex that these issues are of no moment to people.

Hello everyone, I have been to the cars and coffee at Wegmans in Malvern a few times, and thought for a change of pace I would try the one at Northbrook. Is the Northbrook cars and coffee every Saturday? How does it compare to the one in Malvern?

Every Saturday. Much smaller, low key, interesting assortment of cars.

Northbrook market has really good food. I had an egg sandwich and an apple turnover. Cider donut sample was also really good. Good roads nearby too. FWIW, I saw no one misbehaving at Wegmans (which also has good food — sahlens hot dogs are a must buy and grill) and I did not see any space concerns while I was there (plenty of much closer spots available). I always try to frequent the places that host so I buy some stuff.

Probably will head to northbrook in my 993 cab on sat. Was there last weekend in the GT3 with the zuffenphilly people (I refer to it as a gang, but it’s just a bunch of nice Porsche people who go on drives and cars and coffees). Can’t believe I missed 1st State 993 .... I suppose I could just walk a few houses down to see his 993 (which is much nicer than my 993).

Been meaning to get to the one at the mall in Del too. It looked kind of big though.

Well, if the weather is good, I am going to swing by. I will be in a white Cayman GTS. IF you're there, say hi.

I found the cayman, I think, but not the owner, at northbrook. I am addicted to North Brook Market. Very chill and good food. Had a nice chat with 1st State 993 and his son. Anyone going to Radnor Hunt?

Hey evilfij, that was me,sorry we didn't connect. When I got there, all the "good" spots were taken so I had to park out of the way. I am going to try to get to Northbrook again this Saturday, so if you are going, look for a tall guy who looks lonely and out of place. I am planning on going to Radnor as well, this will be my first year for that event as I usually go to the vintage races at Watkins Glen (I just watch) I hear the local PCA club will have a hospitality tent at Radnor.

Great looking GTS! I may be out of town during Radnor. Worth attending?

This will be my first time, but it sounds like a nice event.

I'll be there. Red/Silver Cayman R. I'll be wearing a blue Porsche polo with green edging and a red/black Porsche hat. Be sure to say hello

Best regards,
John Gaydos

I’m thinking about making an appearance in the super dirty Chalk GT3.

Cool, I will be there too this sat. Like I said I am addicted. Look for a fat guy in khakis and a baseball hat. Probably shuffling about with a sandwich or pastry and morning inappropriate beverages (blue Powerade zero or diet soda).
