Hey everyone-
I just checked the weather and it is looking like sunny with a high of 69,
sounds just about perfect. Roundtop is a great laid back event to show off your
car or buy/sell parts. I encourage everyone to grab a few boxes of parts to pay
for gas and come on down. The weather is supposed to be nice all weekend so you
can enjoy the ride there and the ride home.

I know I get on my soapbox about this but, WE ARE THE PORSCHE COMMUNITY and
while we don't have the power to change the price of oil, climate change, or fix
the Euro debt crisis, we DO have the power to make a Porsche event fun, but we
have to support.

If anything you can stop by the Unobtanium booth and get a FREE gift bag full of
great stuff like Porsche cars, Factory Shop Towels (Thanks Stoddard), California
Car Dusters, bootleg Messko gauges, lots of great stuff!!!!

I might even find some time to do some surfing like last year.

Hope to see everyone there!

Adam Wright

I am planning to come up with the family Sat, if the weather is good. My three year old is looking forward to it.

WTF happened to my nice sunny day?!

I stopped by the show for an hour it so with Theo. Stopped by the unobtainium booth but i think you were walking around.

Catching lunch at a diner on the way home. Was nice to see some old aircooled cars even if the show was on the small side.

Couple pics from the show.

Theo's favorite car was a cherry red 356 speedster. I liked the silver 914 with the 3+L 6.

The event planners for this event need to take a closer look at the calendar. They planned this event on the same weekend as the All Aircooled Gathering in NJ. Had it been a different weekend, I bet the turnout would have been considerably larger.

I'd love to see this show get bigger. It is in my back yard!

I would have loved to take the 911 there (and slap a big FOR SALE sign on it), but I got a better offer. Perhaps next time, since it's in my backyard too!

I may take you up on that. I have stuff that did not sell at Hershey that I would like to part ways with. When I confirm with my wife that I can come, I'll bring a table and pop-tent. Will probably have the boy with me too.

I remember talking to Mike Moody, who puts the event on, and one thing he said the show needed more of was 914's, he always hoped a big group of them would show up, so all you guys call your friends, club members, uncles, neighbors, and lets have a whole line of 914's, just like at Hershey.

Could we ask for more perfect weather for a swap?

I hope to see everyone there for the 10th anniversary of a great Porsche event. Good friends, good deals, and not perfect weather. You have NO EXCUSE not to be there, unless you like rain, don't like Porsches, or good deals on parts.

I'm thinking of bringing a 916 fiberglass front bumper, anybody interested? It was on the car when I bought it and has been hanging in the garage rafters for 12 years or so now.....
