Any more than 20 & you should break into run groups 10 minutes apart or something. The BIG issue with other marques is the immaturity of those that drive those other marques. With the current climate on the road, you don't need THAT on a run.

You are out of line here. The core Vette group are good guys & respect/overstep about the same as us. There are yahoos in the Porsche crowd too.

But Porsche only seems to be the mob's request & I would concur.

Zookie, lets leave it for this board just now. I'd love more 944's though.

I'm down. That area is my stomping grounds, I used to hang out at The Coffee Bean (a mom & pop greasy spoon & gas station). Glen Williams is a really nice town too, a guy in there has a burnt orange 997 Targa S, maybe he's on here.

I agree with Ian - the vette guys that were on the Niagara run earlier this year were nothing but cool. Though I'm sure if you added up the twits you'd find a higher percentage among vette owners than Porsche owners. But then I'm sure the cool guys would dislike the idiots as much as we would, saying they give the marque a bad image. For that matter, we've had enough losers give Porsches a bad image. So it's a common problem.

I don't mind the hike really. I just drove 500 mi today. The thing that sort of sucks is that it's 200km on the 401 through TO.....not exactly the funnest drive. Oh well, I shall see what develops here, if it's going to be some 50 cars I might just stay home, and how hung over I am sunday morning....

Hey Kirk, that's awesome! I figured you'd have sold the 930 by now! While I understand why you want to, I won't deny there's a bit of me that hopes you don't!

I may be able to hook up at lowville for 12:00.

I was at lowville last Sunday around 4:00pm and they were closed, not sure if it is seasonal there but you may want to check.
