Glad to hear the trip's going well - looks like you've had some decent weather too !

Keep posting when you get a chance.

Sound like a great trip and one I would like to do myself but forgive me if my USA geographic knowledge is weak but I wouldn't of put Detroit between LA and NYC? I guess you have lopped up to the border to see the Great Lakes and Niagra Falls?

Hi guys, I have made it to New York via Michigan (car is withe the shipping agent in Newark). I have tons of photos & experiences to share, I will probably start the thread at the weekend. I have been way too exhausted everynight to even think about anything but a few Facebok updates or Instagram pictures. If you want to look at the Instagrams in the meantime, I'm Gloriaoutlaw69.
Cheers,

Not strictly Porsche but a fun event run by Dave at TRE (where I keep my 67S) I'd certainly like to dovetail into one of these days :)

Not Porsche, but I'm sure you will like it all the same.

Onboard Video Escort Fitzpatrick Jarama 1971, look out for the photographers standing on the apex curbs!

Some Zakspeed and Porsche loving in the Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft 1977. Check the final sequence with the Jagermeister BMW – gives you an idea of how powerful and unforgiving these cars were as he does his celebratory lap...
