  • 6/2/18 Richmond Porsche Meet

    Well Guys,
    Under very threating weather skies it came off.
    Not sure of the final count of cars, but it was around 70 or so.
    We had 4 356s show.
    We lost two others due to the severe storms that rolled thru Friday and Saturday evening.
    My'Porsche' ride to the awards banquet Saturday evening was a 2005 Buick Lesabre.

    The event was held at Virginia Crossings Convention Center that is located North of Richmond City.

    The gold weather vane was a golf bet win of the former CEO getting it from the CEO of Anheiser Busch.
    Not to miss a photo op I got the Roadster in front of the main building.

    We had 4 356s show up.
    A very nice 1957 Speedster that took 1st in Class and Peoples Choice.
    My 1961 Roadster, a 1962 Cab and a 1964 Coupe to be a Outlaw.

    As I said the Speedster is very nice.
    It was restored in York, PA.

    Virginia Crossings is located on near the Civil War Battle Site where JEB Stuart was killed-hence the cannon.

    The local Porsche dealer selected one winner's name from each class to be put in the pot to win a trip to the Porsche Experience Driving School.
    George Michaels from the 1st Settlers PCA Region and former F-14 TOMCAT guy who brings his nicely prepared 928 to the show won.
    He was stunned!
    A fun event in spite of the clouds and rain.

        Thanks guys.
        I used up my 8 spaces for pics so I didn't have the chance to put in the collie owned by the couple with the white 911 Cab.
