Default Porsches at the Point (Sears Point) Oct 26/27

Less than 2 weeks to Porsches at the Point. Who else will be there?

I'll be there for Friday testing too.

With 1 event under my belt there since my oops, I think I'm ready to start going flat out through T8a again and getting back to race pace.

I will be there just in spirit this year. With our recent relocation it just isn't in the cards. Gonna miss the chance to go "home" and hang out with the PRC folks.

Will do Scott. Thanks for the invite.

I am making this trip the old fashioned way in that I am driving my GT3 to the track and driving it back to NM. I am carrying a full set of replacement sport cups with me.

Thank you for the offer. One of these days I will get to an event that you are at, and I will send my wheels in advance. I like the challenge of driving what you brought, on tires that you brought, in a car I have to drive drive back home.

I have tires no wheels. One rear tire is riding as a passenger with me. Three are in a Yakima 18 Rack riding on top of the GT3. It looks pretty funny, but works well. It takes about 15 minutes to take the rack on and off. I have a 28 foot trailer, but do not want to drive it out there.

Sorry that Mr. Monson cannot make it-- it is always great to visit with you in person Matt. And of course we appreciate your sponsorship and the great products and supporting services from your company Guard Transmission.

I will be there though not racing... hope to get back on the track next year.

I encourage folks to come out and watch and visit. The weather forecast looks great.

The Porsche Racing Challenge Series/Porsche Racing Club will have one one group. There will be GT cars, including those in the growing PRC GT Limited Class. And of course their will be a large group of Spec 911 cars. The Pirelli Cup featuring the latest PAG factory cars will have a separate exclusive group. So there will be plenty to see in the paddock and on track.

Here is a link to a recent video about the PRC: http://vimeo.com/32604980#http://vimeo.com/32604980#

PRANQSTER,

It was great to meet you today at Sears Point! I am sorry that we couldn't chat longer but the race beckoned. Did you have a chance to meet Tom?

Scott
