John,

You and the "crew" did a great job today. You were leaving at 4:35 am on Saturday.

I can't join you that early tomorrow, have to watch the F1 race. :wink:

Coronado Vintage Races. Wow! What a wonderful event. So many wonderful people, so many beautiful cars. The tent and tables, right next to the track, looked great. The 944 GTR Fabcar racer of David Loynd at our front door looked, well, racy. The sounds of the race cars, the smell of tires and fuel. Did you every notice how we are always in front of the Ferrari's? It's as it should be. It was another great day for PCASDR.

The Vintage Racing Committee of John and Monique Straub, Kaid Marouf, Joe Hofman, John Bell, Katie Kinninger, Chuck Sharp and Don Middleton pulled off another "must attend" annual race weekend. Thanks to Steve Snedeker for manning the Goodie Store for the benefit of thousands. Thanks to Rich Fatuzzo, Larry Bevins, Phil Corwin, Mark Kinninger, Membership chair Angela Avitt and many others for pitching in wherever needed.

If you know anyone with even a passing interest in cars, this should be on their list for every year. Take your favorite neighbor, niece, or nephew. The true faithful are already there. I can't wait for next year.

All the other clubs should take lessons from PCASDR. You definitely do it right from start to finish. Thanks for making it so enjoyable.

Awesome event. Thanks to all who made the Hospitality Tent happen. It was the envy of the other car clubs.

You should have seen the jaw drop when I told the president of the corvette club we had 1500 members and that, YES all the Porsches in the corral were local member's cars.

I don't know whom specifically to thank but I appreciated the hospitality tent and everything provided at this past weekend's Porsche Corral at the Coronado Speed Festival. Nice job! What a great showing by Porsche owners. Peter Shapiro

To John and All PCASDR members, especially those that were able to attend the Event either on Sat. or Sun. or for both days:

I am in the process of finalizing an Article on this Event for the WW, which will include Event photos and Captions. The Article is about 90% complete, but am still waiting for final Event Race results. I had a great time and everybody I talked to had big smiles on their faces. Beautiful weather too, that I even got there at 5:30a.m. on Sunday and had to wake up the Marines maining the Front Pit Entrance Gate. This is the "El Primo" Event of the Year!!! Can't wait for the next one. Rich Fatuzzo :beerchug:

John and crew,
I was there with the 356 both days, even talked my wife and BOTH kids into attending Sunday. We had a great time and the tent was the ideal place to meet and get out of the sun. Thank you for all your hard work.
