Wish I could have made it. Looks like Randy found some fun roads. As for the scenery, I don't suppose you folks would believe me if I told you they were photoshopped. No, I guess not. I have to admit, this part of the world is pretty hard to beat, this time of year particularly. Rolling hills, rocky mountains, alpine meadows, glaciers, ocean, rain forest, lakes....all baked in ninety degree sunshine. Sunup at five, sundown at ten. Beat that!

Whaddya think, Mark Wilson? You like it here?

Hey SuperJim,
Only wish I was there. Still sitting in the Dallas heat with the house on the market. Temp gauge on the SC hits 250 if I'm not careful. Soon, baby, soon....

Porsches to Pinckney is up to 78 cars, and is drivable from, say, Indiana (200 miles?).

I think Maxnine11's pictures are ruining it for me anyways.

Max-Air (it's not a new shoe)


. . .That was on one of those "DO NOT make a mistake" corners.


Mt Jefferson in the background. (yet another volcano)



This next shot was cool; when I was running up to get in position for the "parade" pictures, this 993 comes over the crest.

I got my camera on and snapped a shot just as he was hitting the brakes. I could hear him thinking 'WTF?" heh-heh.
(we then had one more Porsche for the rest of the event, BTW)

All of these pics are great, keep them comming. I would love to see all of them in some sort of photo gallery with thumbnails. Perhaps Wayne can host them on the site?

Found them. (We took pictures like drunk Japanese tourist in NewYork City.) (actually, Eric showed a lot more restraint than I did)

That was really cool seeing you guys scream'n up the otherside of the valley.

Eric Coffey gets credit for these pict's (BTW, the full size are much better)

Hood River Oregon

. . .and Final Final stop for day 1:


(note the 911 coming off the bridge. It looked, for a second, like it might have been Tyson)


Anyway,
We had a nice view from there . . . of the mighty Columbia River. (they build the bridges at the skinny part of the river)


People had a good time. . .



Prizes where handed out . . .. (Thanks for thinking of us Wayne)


EDIT:
Oh, yeah. . . Doug won this 996 donated by Pelican.



Doug, when are we having the "Door RePaint Clinic" . . . I have some extra Platinum Metallic paint.
