Hi Guys,

We have been having a great time on our US holiday. There have been so many highlights but special ‘speedster related’ mentions for Peterson Museum’s Porsche exhibition and a brief visit to Vintage Motorcars to check out Greg’s operation for a quick speedster “fix” (thanks Greg @VSpyder for taking time out of your busy day).

We had a fantastic morning in Monument Valley yesterday and have rafting on the Colorado planned for this afternoon.

We'll be spending 3-4 days early next week in Yosemite before heading up to Sacramento by Friday.

I'm hoping some of you SOC’ers in the Sacramento area may be about for a catch-up either Friday evening or Saturday morning. I know you guys recently held your Tour D’Hoe event (loved the video Ryan) so you may not be up for a cruise but even a quick “meet & greet” (with your speedsters 😁) would be great.

Terry, i know you have a big weekend scheduled, all the best with that.

I'll keep an eye on this thread and hopefully some of you will be available.

I look forward to hearing from.

Kind regards,

Tony

Hi @IndianBob

Yes, that might help :-). We will be arriving in Sacramento on the afternoon/evening of the 11th October and need to head off to San Francisco by lunchtime Saturday 13th October.

I know it’s a relatively small window and will understand if people aren’t available but just in case there’s a chance of meeting a few SOC’ers I thought I would throw it out there.

Kind regards,

Tony

Hi Sacramento SOC’ers,

We just arrived in Sacramento this afternoon after a few days in Yosemite NP. What a beautiful place!

Really enjoyed the drive up the 49 through Jamestown, Angels Camp, San Andreas and Jackson. You have some great countryside to drive your speedsters in this part of the country!! The occasional spot even reminded us of back home in Australia.

Anyway, just wanted to put it out there that we are planning to head over to the Folsom Cars & Coffee this Saturday morning just in case any of you were interested in meeting and bringing your speedsters along. It will be my last chance to catch up with any SOC’ers before flying out of San Francisco this coming Monday.

Thanks in advance for any interest.

Kind regards,

Tony.

 It was very nice to meet you today at the Folsom Cars and Coffee event.  I’m glad you got to drive my car around the parking lot to get a little bit of a feel of a Porsche 912 powered fiberglass Speedster. I’m sorry I had to leave right at 8:30 am and didn’t get to say goodbye again to you and your family so I hope you have a very good & safe trip back home to Australia.  My wife and I are now thinking of spending our 50th anniversary with our friends in Kings Beach Queensland next August and if we do, we of course would want to come visit you too!  And as we talked about, I will give you special deal on my Speedster ! 😊

Your Mate,

Bob

Hi All,

The family and I had a great time at Folsom C&C yesterday. So many amazing cars, especially for a relatively casual gathering. Sacramento certainly has an active car community!!

It was so good to meet @IndianBob and @RONSTR on the day. Thanks so much for taking to time to bring your speedsters along!! That made my day!! An extra thanks to Bob for letting me take your speedster for a quick drive. Great fun!!

Had an awesome time!! Thanks!!

Kindest regards,

Tony.

 

Tony,  It was great talking to you and your wife.  I hope you find the the car of your dreams.
