New Castle PA Pelican??
I saw a red SC cabriolet today twice. Once on 60 South, then later going down my street. Anybody here? Possible Pelican sighting?

I knew nothing about it. I guess I'm too new to the area to know all the haps around here. And remember...I'm in New Castle. Going to some fireworks tonight. What are the details on the event you speak of?

Its always a big deal 'round these parts. Its next Saturday. Check out www.pittsburghvintagegrandprix.com If you're going, be sure to PM me and we'll keep an eye out & save some beers for you. The drive from New Castle shouldn't be that bad.

Thanks for the comps on the S. It loves it here as well. This car today was a Cab for sure. Might be a turbo .....but ya never know really at a distance these days. red, black top. YES we should meet up for coffee some morning when it warms up here.

Hey guys I grew up just north of Pittsburgh.
I've been to the Vintage races several times. I couldn't wait to see the early 911's rip up the races (well when they would be allowed to race), unfortunately for the past ten years I've been living else where. I hope you guys have a great time! Please posts some pictures of the 911's sticking it to the field!

89911,
I graduated from Pine-Richland High School in '97. My dad still lives in Bakerstown. I've been in the Navy since I graduated from college in VT. I try to get back there as much as I can, which is only about once every two years. I miss PA, but I do not miss the roads. Well at least the continual construction and how they always bank the turns in the wrong direction. I have no love for PENNDOT.

Graduated Hampton in (don't want to say
 ). So your a Ram. If I would of known that, I wouldn't of responded! Yes the road suck most of the time, especially now when its road constuction time. Still, there are plenty of empty back roads where you can really unwind.
