This and the week around it has been “on my list” for a while. Found some air miles last night and booked a flight.
Anyone else going?

Yes Clive , I wanted to do it before I die , am cutting it close , going with a group of 5 Porschephile Brits , common link is 356s .

Probably worse than Goodwood Revival for meeting up with people but you can PM me and we might meet up at a bar .....

My sentiments too- let’s keep in touch- I’m going with Angus from Greatworth classics.

Been a few times in the past - my only advice: get there early and take lots of money! Enjoy!

I have been to the last 3 or 4 meets, not next year though. My advice would be to forget going on the shop tour buses. Use the money to hire a car and go around the shops at your own leisure. Some are more interesting than others and we found that we were often rushed out of a good venue when on the bus tour as we were delayed from previous visits. For me the best part of the week was the Phoenix swap meet on the Sunday. Unfortunately that venue has now been sold.

Hopefully they have that day planned for another nice location. Enjoy lads.

I must admit this one isn't on my list. Buses and over priced bits isn't for me.

However, Rennsport does look cool but I think you have already been there!

An excuse to hang out for a week surrounded by Porsche stuff Neil- going to take a drive up Highway 1

to Canepa and other Calif stuff- something sunny to look forward to at this gloomy time of year

No date (or venue) set for Rennsport yet but will certainly go again- best event I have yet attended

Bringing this back up to see who else might be going? Angus from Greatworth and I will be there from 23rd for a week.
