Did the Porsche Experience driving event at the Porsche North American headquarters yesterday. Highly recommend it! It was far more fun than I had imagined. Had a great instructor for the session; Shannon Mc Intosh who is an aspiring Nascar driver. She was a really excellent and fun (and cute) instructor. If you get the chance, do it.
While there, Sara and I walked around and saw 2 914's. I recall the blue one is a member's but is the red one? Both very nice cars and nice to see there.

For some reason the pics appear correct in my files but then flipped when I post. Let me know if you know how to correct. Sorry about that.

Yeah it is a really nice car. Looked to be a good restoration.
How much does it cost to do an event there. The LA a experience Center is opening soon.

It depends on the car you select. Mine was a Cayman S and was $450 but they didn;t have an S so upgraded me to a GTS at no additional cost. The Cayman GT4 was I think $750? It's expensive but it is a great experience. I was surprised how aggressive you could be on the track.

I wonder if that could be a business expense
A friend of mine did it a couple weeks ago with a GT3- obviously he had a great time! No other reason to go to Atlanta, but sounds like it would worth a trip to that airport at least...

The red one is called "Ruby" and she belongs to a local Atlanta PCA guy.
