    Hey guys, that is not the formal name of this event but you are ALL invited to come out and bring your hot cars and participate.

    Here is a link to the event. Being sponsored by the magazine Autobahn Ambitions and I suspect could easily result in you and/or your car being featured in an issue of the magazine! Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo, Lotus all invited and encouraged to come out and play!

    BBQ, WWII aircraft, and Hot cars of all kinds! Hardly could get any better than that!

    Here is the link:

    I'll have to pass on the drive, but I might be up for the concourso. Would it be alright to come straight to San Marcos Airport at 12:30, if I don't drive on the run?

    Is anyone else planning on coming out? Sounds like fun.

    Hmmmm, should I let the HCD folks and Viper Folks know about this? Do your guys know what they would be getting into with a60-70 cars out there? I know I have organized plenty of drives like that before and it can be a lot to handle. Is there a registration cap?

    I get so many emails about so many different events... it's amazing that I make it out to as many as I do. I can hardly keep track of all the events that I'm supposed to be committed to.

    It says which cars are invited and Vipers aren't on the list.

    Yea, what Michael said. Be sure and check out the web site. It is pretty clear who they are looking for. Off the top of my head, Ferrari, Lambo, Lotus, Porsche, Maserati I think were all that were requested... I could be wrong, so check it out.

    Yes, what Mike and James said is correct. However I did not see the Maserati marquee noted on the site. Honestly, I can't imagine someone showing up in a new Gran Turismo and not being allowed to participate.:D

    There is a phone # and email at the bottom of the page for more info. I'd look into this . . .

    Ah Yes, Eurosport...should have done a slower scan.


    Ya Mike, I am right there with you...I have 5 different care events I am invited to this weekend and almost every weekend till June, but I would rather have to choose than not be invited at all :)

    Jealous huh? We will welcome you with open arms to the Porsche club when you come to your senses. Seems like more than a few of the folks I met at this event are smart enough to own both Porsche AND Ferrari! I will join that list if things go well this year. Oh, I like boring btw...everytime I go out to the garage the Porsche's will start! Understated elegance (I do prefer the newer models to the older though, and I was never a big fan of the 911...I liked them ok, but they didn't really inspire me...the new 997's are quite nice though).

    Michael... GREAT SHOTS as usual my friend! Well done and thanks for posting them!

    Tyler,

    Nice pics! Keep this up and you will start to rival Michael as the picture master! Great seeing both of you out there! Good time for sure.

    Tyler, I like the shot of your 924 and my 928 together! Good job!

    The white Porsche 928 is stunning!

    Makes me regret selling the last 2 I owned. :(

    Ah! Just jerking our chains a bit then! Michael, we need to get together at some more events so you can square me away on all these guys! They keep throwing it out there and I keep rolling right through it! DANG IT!

    Bimmerista, thanks. That is one of my babies! I love my 928's!

    Best,

    NO WAY! Where did that happen? Was that on the driving part of the gig? I was at the airport and didn't do the drive. That SUCKS though!

    It was at the hanger when everyone started to head out. I don't really remember what kind of porsche exactly i want to say it was a 911 turbo tho. He was backing out of his space and he backed right into the telephone pole support cable kinda at the far end where the planes where as opposed to the strip. It didn't look like there was any damage to the car just his ego probably and that of his female passanger.
