Washington State Pelicans?
In my short time living back here in Washington State, I was surprised to see so many 911s driving around Snohomish county.
I'm just wondering how many are Pelicans. Today in Everett on Skyway I exchanged flashes/waves with a nice black 80s Carrera or SC. I was in my Venetian blue Targa. I've also seen a different black 911 with whale tail a few times around Everett (unless it's the same one I saw today), a red 914 on Boeing freeway, another black 911 in Lake Stevens, a dark blue or black 964 in Everett, and a white 911 in Mukilteo. Nice to see y'all driving your Pcars and not letting a few sprinkles stop you.

We think these are the best cars in the world, and we also believe they were meant to be admired in operation, rather than as garage sculptures. We also notice that our cool, mild weather seems to be ideal for air cooled Porsche operation. So, we drive their little wheels off. Oh, we also have a plethora of fine, scenic and twisty roads.

There will be a technical session at Fordahl Motorsports tomorrow morning. You don't actually have to kiss Greg's ring, but he's arguably the best Porsche 911 suspension setup guy in the US. And that's what they'll be discussing.
I'll be putting my engine back in my car. I miss her terribly.

I will be in my red ' 82 at Bremerton raceways on Sat. with the local IRDC group. Dragging the g/f, son and son's friend to the track for good measure. Look for me between Gig Harbor and Seattle on a regular basis.

Wow. Lots of you up here. I guess I'll be seeing you all on the road and perhaps at your next fun run. I'll be mostly around Lake Stevens and of course on a number of twisties near you.
Cheers.

Light yellow
Steve,
If you ever want to see the scenic roads of Whidbey Island, just say so. There are a few of us on the islands, and we have been pondering a rally from Coupeville to Bellingham via Chuckanut Drive. For me, my 76 911S Coupe in Light Yellow are usually just islanders. Andrew 1976 911S Coupe 1985 911 Targa (SOLD) |
