Joe's wheels are perfection! Good-lookin' 993s all-around.

Was a blast driving to Hershey 2012, but this year my 993 is in the NY Auto Show.

Tomorrow (Sunday)'s the last day of the LeMay Museum exhibit. After that, my jalopy will move to another Javitz Center display 'til Apr 27.
For anyone I don't see there, I hope to catch you on the road: tentative May 3 RL run before I head out west.
Tim-- Got your e-mail. Back at ya soon

Yep, that was one heck of a great day up there today. Great pics! LOVED seeing the few Rennlisters I ran into and seeing all the cars. Perfect weather, awesome croud, and converted a few 993 drivers into coming on board to Rennlist.

Great pics!

So... Other than Cactus' new Beastie Boy medallion, didn't anyone pick up a deal? Sounds like the pickings were slim this year..?

Got a 20% off deal on Rennline pedals and spent $21 on LOTS of microfiber towels.

I had a blast at my first Porsche Swap Meet! We had a 6-car caravan from Columbia Mall in Maryland. By lucky circumstance, we ran into Steve 96C4S's impressive AMG S-class Merc on the way and picked up a wide body slate gray(?) 964 too. We arrived at 9:30am and the parking lots were already packed. Unfortunately, rennlist area was full by the time we arrived. The parking attendants were super friendly. One gentelman stopped me on the way in to pull a leaf out of my front bumper The recommended crabcake sandwich was surprisingly good, as was the weather. I didn't pick up any parts, this time but maybe next year, because I will be back. I tried to get a late lunch at Troegs but, they were packed!

more pictures?
