19. Maps are just all wrong. Here’s how the world map should look according to “The West Wing”:

I joined the "pelican club" and the PCA in 2005, shortly after buying my 1978 911SC.
I ran the car in DE and AX events until 2009, when some things in my life started to change (like money availability). Since it was set up for track, with tight suspension, roll cage, racing seats, etc, it was not the best choice as a DD. So the poor car spent most of the next 4.5 years in my warehouse, only being dragged out about 2 or 3 times per year for cars & coffee, and mountain runs with my friends. In 2012, I decided I wanted a Porsche that I could DD. I bought a 996. Then in January 2013, I sold my SC.

Yesterday, I was pointed to this video. It nearly brought a tear to my eye. For so many reasons, I miss that car. I am very happy to see that it has a very good caretaker now, and I know that it has made it to a corner of "Porsche heaven".

Odd in that Oregon is known for its rain (constant drizzle) and not those other states.

Nice story though, and a beautiful state. You must show some of those covered bridges in the next video.

I know, right? That's what I get for buying a car in Spring...

Thanks. It's killing me that I don't have better equipment, I'd love to shoot more in the area. I'm putting together a longer story about our 911...there's a lot more footage, but not necessarily better footage. Stay tuned...
