We were offering total weight with and without the driver, corner weights. Larry, scales owner, was also offering cross weight percentages if the driver asked for them.

The instructor giving him the ride was yours truly. Although I was joking with West that I'm not sure how I feel about his description of my "driving without thinking"

Mike -- nice to finally meet you this weekend,

Big kudos to the organizers including David, Chris and West (no doubt I'm missing many others). Most of all, hats off to the weather committee!

First event ever. I almost always only post on the 944 turbo forum. Glad I came over to check on you guys.
Waaaaaay better than I expected. FANTASTIC people. Texas is indeed a strong Porsche state.
I don't think there has been a larger group of "GT" or turbo Porsches gathered outside of Germany.

I look forward to December.

Terrified it might have hit someone behind me. (problem solved now though) Other than that, not too extreme. Lots of little bugs to work out with the car.
Wheels bearings, Brake pads/ducting, install cage, refresh motor. You know.. the standard. LOL
