Ok so its 2015 now, is it too early to start thinking about CanAm 2015?

Hey guys, my son talks non stop about 'The Porsche Drive' and can't wait for the next one...

So, how 'bout it?

Do you want or need any help with planning?

Scott and Clayton.

The tradition is to alternate annually each side of the border. 2015 will be hosted by one of our American friends. Haven't heard a thing yet.

Regardless, it's not too early to start thinking about it...

I am tuning in, I want to tag along. Since my new ride is water cooled I will hang around the back, if that is okay?

PULEASE!!!! I'm sure that thing can't actually do under 100kph. Perhaps you can lead and pull us along in your space/time bending vortex.

I think it's a lot of work to plan these, and maybe no one has volunteered yet. I think Graham planned a big chunk of the last two state-side events. Perhaps others are waiting for him to do the same...?

It does not look too promising. Our USA friends are busy with personal commitments. There was some discussion a couple months back, but it has gone quiet.

Al and I have discussed the issue very briefly to consider alternatives. Our conclusion...........if we need to, we can put something very casual together.

So, who is interested in a 3 day drive in early June?? Location to be determined - likely depends on home location for everyone.

Note - this is a backup plan in case the 2015 CanAm does not materialize.

I didn't think I'd be able to make the CanAm this year, but I might be able to after all. I'm interested, Charlie.

So maybe it will turn into a Can Can or maybe an Am Am?

I can never get away at that time of year but I always enjoy seeing photos of your tour.

Hi Charlie,

I'd be interested, I'm flexible on the dates. Jerry from Seattle would be interested as well.
