Cool 2011 Parade Concours attendee?

If so, I may have taken a picture of your car.

I tried to get as many 996's as I could find both in the Corral and on the judging field. If you were registered for the Corral and displayed your windshield sign, then I shot that first and then your car. I shot 996's on the judging field with their info plaque in front.

Gonna take me a few days to post them all so be patient if you don't see yours right away.

Me, first, of course. LOL!

The concours was on Monday and there were two large fields of cars - the judged cars, and the Corral which was layed out by model. 996's and 997's were grouped together in the corral.

Temperature was held down by a heavy overcast all day. A thankful respite from the near 100's before and after.

There was a brand new Panamera entered in full concours (not pictured on this thead). Also a lone 904 and a single Carrera GT. But the highest dollar collectible car on the judging field was a 1964 356 Carrera 2 coupe.

Over 400 cars were presented for judging. About twice that many more were in the Corral.

nice pictures. I like the way you did the photos. In this case, more(pics) is better.
Thanks for sharing to those who could not make it.
