Fantastic event! Thanks to Jim for all the hard work.
The fall drives are the best. The turbos, and I'm sure all the other cars as well, just love the cold air. I can't wait to see some pics. Eshel, hurry up and post some pics as well as the tunnel video. Send me some of the originals of my car in motion.

Thanks to all for a great day.

Jim: what a wonderful day!..lots of Porsches, great people, and a superb route for us all to drive. I know how hard you worked to keep the Rennlisters in the same direction. It is a great pleasure to be with a lot of people who just want to enjoy their cars from the oldest to the newest, and enjoy meeting each other.
The atmosphere was friendly, fun , and completely lacking the stuffiness of some of these occasions . I saw some beautiful cars, we had lots of laughs, and, for once, the weather cooperated.
Congratulations and thanks to you for organizing such a fun event. We will be there next year without a doubt.

Well said Ronan. Nice to see everyone and also to make some new friends. I don't think we could have asked for a better day- thanks for putting this together Jim.

Edit: All the pics taken en route were done by my wife, hence why some of them are out of focus!

Glad to see that We all obeyed the Speed limits today. No accidents, no officers, no tickets.

Karla and I had a BLAST, and are looking forward to next year.

It was nice to put faces to names.

Thanks Jim for a great and well organization day, (not an easy feat with so many cars and people). My wife and I could not have asked for a nicer group of folks to have spent this lovely late fall day with - doing what we all love doing...
A few pictures attached. Under the photo of Phil and Ronan, the caption should read " Was I supposed to bring the Cohibas, or was it your turn ?"
Look forward to next year. Sacha and Glenn

Thanks everybody for the kind words. Every time I drive the route the scenery stands out, whether it's springtime with the blossoms or the autumn with colour in the leaves. We really are fortunate to have the escarpment in our back yard. I like the idea of running it backward, though I'd get a crick in my neck after awhile.
