Love it.
Next year I think it will be bursting at the seams..
Maybe the strategy should be to have more GT's then there are police cars..

Can you elaborate on exact location? Have a wedding in Egg Harbor in June and will have my car there.

Some DSLR pics from Smokies...






Getting ready for a day at AMP on Friday. We had beautiful weather.



AMP before the driving starts



AMP



Beautiful RS Green 997 GT3 RS



Lovely white 991 GTS RS with unique light blue CXX stripes and painted wheels



Got Porsche?



Skittles lined up before driving at AMP



Lava Orange 991 GT3 RS peeks out from beneath the tree as seen from my balcony at The Ridges



Loved this matte XPEL Stealth PPF on this Agate Grey GT4









At the car wash on site, this black GT4 with yellow stripes looks stunning





The sole 911 R at Smokies GT 2017 looks great in the early evening twilight at The Ridges after being washed













Classy GT Silver 991 GT3



Love the Ultraviolet purple RS



Sapphire blue 991 GT3 belonging to Matt of Obsessed Garage





More Lava Orange. There were 3 or 4 of them among the 75 GT cars at Smokies GT this year







Can't get enough of that purple Porsche. This was one of two in attendance in this color combo



My GT silver with Martini



Socializing Saturday night on the patio at The Ridges before dinner



Sean G (left) and Mayur (center), the event organizers, mingle on the patio







Sean pontificates at dinner Saturday night



Sean presents a video from Saturday of the airstrip event earlier that day in which a boy with CF gets the ride of his life trying launch mode in a Porsche 918. Smilies all around.



PT3 plays auctioneer and gets some us to bid against ourselves!



Hanging out in the libby around the fireplace in The Ridges after dinner Saturday night







Raining foggy day Sunday; we took a great drive anyway

It is already bursting at the seams

Sure is fun though. Did feel as though the police had us out numbered this year. LOL
