I agree, Blue had a good flow all weekend. And Mrs. B-Man, thanks for letting me pass you that one time. I assume you must've been taking a phone call or something because the rest of the weekend you passed me like I was standing still!

^ +1 on Blue group last weekend. Some nice driving, and great awareness. My student [white 996 GT3] was among the faster cars in the group, and the heads-up driving from everyone out there was a pleasure to see. Great stuff guys and grrls!

Data?? If you lap the field and just one passes you then you finish on the podium the DE, right?

Depends on how many are lined up behind you

Clarke, sorry about the cars. But the pics with your niece are great. I’ve always thought it a cliché to pose a girl with a perfect Porsche; ordinary, at least in conception. But the juxtaposition of beauty with destroyed beauty. Brilliant. Raw. visceral. And thought provoking – makes you wonder about the story behind it: beauty vs. beauty || beauty destroys beauty || beauty triumphs. A kind of skewed fairy tale. Thanks for posting. Leaves me wanting more.

That's funny. I was looking for the podium and champagne but must have been distracted by a certain beauty with a damaged red Porsche because I couldn't find either.

Truth be told, I exercised my point by finger twice for a gentleman who was driving a very fast 996 turbo quite well. He mentioned that he was pushing 450 at the wheels on 93 octane and 520 with race gas. He seemed to know how to use it. He was at the end of the row by the trees a few cars up from Mia and Brian. I forgot his name as I often do but he seemed like yet another great guy.
