Porsche Crest Merry Christmas!

Hey All!
Enjoy your family and friends today. My family all met in Aurora, Illinois at my little sister's home. We are staying here until Monday.
Any good dealerships I would want to visit before we leave. I think the women ar egoin gshopping and my brother-in-law and I could bum around for a bit.
I wish we had more time to visit. I would like to meet up with some of the Pelican guys from around the area.
Next year I will plan more time. Maybe even bring the car down and go on a drive with you guys.
Oh yeah, Ijust found out that my Bro in law has a cottage right by Gingerman Raceway in Mich. He said you can hear the cars on the track at the house.
Have a fantastic holiday!
Wayne

Somehow I don't think that living right next to a racetrack is anything to be proud of... I'll bet he can hear the cars on the track right inside the house too.

tabs......it all depends if you are a car guy or not.....
a number of tracks are located in rural areas, most of the area around gingerman is farmland.......same at nelsons ledges/mid-ohio etc.......
also most club type tracks have db limitations, but when it's extremely quiet out of the cities than any "loud" sound seems louder, i'd bet it's quieter there than many places in the US

No, no, no. The cabin is just in the area of the track.
The point was that I could include a trackday or DE and have a free place to stay close to the track while convincing the wifey that we were on vacation.

Update to my Christmas adventure:
My brother in law took me to Naperville and Westmont to check out some dealerships.
AWESOME!!.
Napleton Porsche in Westmont must have had 10-15 997's sitting there.
Inside was a beautiful Iris Blue?GT3. I wish i could stay longer to check it out when they were open.
Found a sweet S4 wagon at the Audi store. We may try to buy it next month if available. I figure it would make for a pretty cool roadtrip to Chicago.
See ya next time,
Wayne
