Sean and Roger go on vacation to do what they do at work.


Little known fact: The S4 wing was designed to serve as an outdoor bar.

I'm just now realizing that the Frenzy website doesn't come up on a mobile device. Sorry about that. Here's a link to Franklin Park for those of you who might be lost. 17501 Franklin Park Dr

I need to share this email that came in through our general Frenzy mailbox. It's from a resident of Rectortown, a small town that we passed through on the Funrun:
Porsches coming through Rectortown!!
Hello, I just want to ask if you can keep Rectortown Rd on your Fun Run every year. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the beautiful cars parading right in front of my house!! I caught a glimpse out my window of them coming, had to run to the porch to catch a better look. How fun was that to watch each unique Porsche! I did some googling, Porsche club Virginia and found your site. Now I want one!!!!
Thank you!! Christina

Well...this made my day. Took some initiative to send us this message. An unexpected gem. Rectortown Rd. is a bit rough, but it has the best sweeping, rising, and falling, curves...and in a beautiful area. Hmmm...might try to make this town a meeting point next year.

Jon and Greg, every component of the Fun Run was great! You guys clearly put a lot of effort into mapping out a route that was beautiful, fun to drive with minimal stops, lights and intersections - so most of us could stay together. The meeting point in the middle of Upperville allowed us to regroup and looked like it had been built for us. 65 cars fit in one scenic spot with a gazebo in the middle.
The Oktoberfest would have been a total bust if we were left to have to park on our own. Instead, after an arduous trek past the crowds, we had a roped-off VIP parking area on The Green. That was huge.
Managing to keep cars together for a Fun Run is a challenge in itself.

But the real challenge that can easily be overlooked when it goes smoothly:
Over the course of the event we were able to self-park 65 cars so that the cars were safe and we were together. Not once, twice, or 3 times, but 4 times.
Great organization and foresight, guys!
