    Hi guys,

    Well I am stoked you all enjoyed Rennsport. Thankful it is over - I can now get back to some real work!!!

    Over I think it was a huge success. So happy to have so many people I know come and support and enjoy it.

    Super lucky with the weather - clearly someone 'up there' owns a Porsche!

    Next one (whenever we work out when that will be) will be bigger and better again, as I am sure those that did not attend will be annoyed they missed this one.

    Thanks must go to an amazing team at PCA and at ARDC that made it all happen. I think we set a new benchmark of how to make an event look and feel with a complete diversity of competitors and cars, given they were all Porsches!

    Without the support of guys like you all on the forum, it would not have been a success, so thanks must go to you who paid you money to attend, race, compete and enjoy.

    There will be some cool stuff coming out over the new few weeks that will hit the press so I will keep you informed of those as they come out.

    Long Live Rennsport

    Congrats to PCA, Porsche Center South Sydney, all the enthusiasts, and especially Alex for all he did 'over and above the call' for us all.

    Brilliant weekend, well done, it was fantastic to be there and it all seemed to be over in a heartbeat. We saw some amazing cars and met some fantastic custodians of these rare & special machines.

    I've many memories, here's one......

    Suburban Sandown is my bet; central location more convivial to a bumper crowd, & ease of access and accommodation.
