Could not have asked for better weather. So many beautiful cars. Had a great time walking around and talking with everyone.

It was great to meet Mr. and Mrs. Gasman (who have a beautiful orange 76). Also got to check out George's 916. George it was very nice to meet you and talk with some of your staff.

On with the pictures.

That car #56 hurts my eyes. I'm sure the concours guys loved it.

Where was Steve and his orange 471?

thanks for the pix and vid.

Thanks Mike-
Why haven't I met you yet? Maybe you will be at the AutoX.....

Posted by: stepuptotheMike Jul 2 2008, 06:59 PM

If you were the one handing out Rocket City Ramble cards on Sunday morning, then you handed me one while I was sitting in my black 73.

When is the AutoX? I've been working all this week and didn't register for the actual parade events. I'm planning on heading out to Lowe's Motor Speedway this weekend to get pictures at the DE event.

How many folks are still in town? My office is right there in uptown, so always looking for an excuse for a long lunch

That black 6 is pure sex... :drool:

Posted by: SGB Jul 3 2008, 11:15 PM

Hey Mike-
Sorry now I've missed that with you, since now I'm back home. The AX was Wednesday- we were there (it was at Lowes Motor Speedway) from 6:00 am until 8:00 pm, and today was driving day.
I haven't checked the board since Tuesday. I remember you now, though.
The DE is Friday I think, at Lowes. I hopw you get to see them. A 914 4 SPANKED ALL THE WICKED TURBOS AND OTHER EXOCTICA IN THE AUTOCROSS
It was stripped to a minimum, carbed 4 banger, with grill mounted coolers, but he was whole seconds faster than anything.
The DE would be a treat to watch. You should go.
