May 27.
Pre-register your car online and pay a discounted rate when you show up. Porsche is the featured marque this year and we will have our own "special" parking area.

AdamB,TimG and I are planning on being their. Maybe set a early AM meeting place and caravan down together?

I'll be there, and I am pretty sure some of my Porsche and BMW buddies will too...

Debating what car to drive, the alfa or the 911

To keep company with my GT4 and SC.

I am taking my SC. It will be it's first big trip. Thank god I just renewed my AAA membership.

[Ron.G]

That could be my first big trip also.

[Ferrariguyma]

Tim G lives in Tiverton RI. Maybe meet up with us and caravan down?

[Ron.G]

Sounds good to me . Just have to see if I have any family commitments.
This would be great!

Will try to make it...Driving up from NYC.
Speaking of AAA I think you get a discount on entry at LRP with a card.

I really like the Hemmings publication too.

[Ron.G]

I'm in.

Grrr. My sister is coming into town (from San Fran) that weekend. I'll have to see if I can creatively alter her travel schedule so that I can go for a day or two of the long weekend--though most of the local inns have a 3-day minimum. The show (IMO) was a bit of a dud last year; a few great cars, but nowhere near the turnout that I've seen in past years at Lime Rock. But there are a lot of Porsches out there, so perhaps that will improve the participation.

Hey Andrew, I'll go. I'll talk to you as it gets closer.

Will you be bringing your car? I registered the SC online. You have to register the car for a discount and you pay when you get to the event. Porsche is the featured marque. I figure at minimum registering the car will guarantee safe parking.

[917 FAN]

I'll be going up from the Hudson Valley region, Middletown NY and Newburgh, if anyone else is. I go the "back way" up 82 to 44 and in to CT. Much more enjoyable....

[DelPico]

Hi Andrew, not yet. I will try and do tonight.

I am looking forward to it. I guess it means I need to clean the inside out. Looks like a homeless person has been living in there.

Since I sold my concours winning CE I celebrate the patina my 29 yr old SC has. It sits covered in dust, dirt, sawdust in Adam's barn in Danvers. My plan is to bring it as is dirt and all. I love every scratch, scrape, ding, nick, scuff the car has. EVERY LAST ONE!

The car looks very different from the time it was at your grandfathers barn. It now has a center fill tank, cibie hood lights, a metal/fiberglass ducktail, plaid 930 sport seats, widened steelies, and it sits a little lower then euro ride height. Kind of the euro cafe' racer look but without the carnuba sheen.

andrew, could you please post a photo of your plaid sport seats, i have a pair that came in my '78 coupe. i wonder how far apart our cars are numerically. would love to see yours.
thanks.

Pictures, pictures....

We'll have to catch up. I want to hear all about the decision to get rid of the CE. As nice as it was, I am pretty excited to see where you took the SC. Your plans the last time we spoke were great.

Matt,

Please bring your Alfa The GTV may be the next car I buy and I wanna take a really good look at it.

And I promise I won't drool over it too much

[mattmcginn]

But its a conundrum-the 911 is nicer to drive, but the GTV just oozes style...

[dezzmo]

Ok, here's the solution:

If you bring the Alfa I'll let you take my 73 911T (with a 3.2 mind you) out for a romp thru the Connecticut country side!

Is that a deal?
