The planning has begun and it's going to be bigger and better than ever! Come join OF members from all over the Mid-Atlantic region (and even some from other parts of the country) for an afternoon of everything horological, drinks and a great lunch, a raffle, first class swag to take home, watches for sale, and just a general good time. We'll even have the traditional Porsche auto show in the parking lot afterwards! If you have attended the G2G before, you already know that it's worth the trip. If you haven't, you don't know what you're missing, so this year, take the plunge and join us! Details to follow in the coming months, but if you plan to attend or would like more information, please PM me on OF and I'll add you to the private email list.
Hope to see you there, -Greg a/k/a @gbesq

Not agaaaaaiin!!! I still haven’t recovered from last year!
Maybe my (now) vintage BMW can join the Porsche stable…although it will need 6ft of social distancing so it doesn’t catch anything.

You love the event, James. You know you do. You just dread all the work that Hannah is going to make you do to prepare for it. 😁

Bring a BMW and you might convince @Archer to show up for some mutual support.

Does the BMW need to be vintage? 😗
Depends on your definition of vintage- 1993 is now considered vintage, but it wasn’t vintage when I got it 🙁

If it’s the E34 M5, it’s 1000kg or so lighter than the new M5 which definitely sounds pretty vintage.

And same footprint as a modern 3-series if I recall, which is insane.

I'll be by myself in the Subaru party area. By party, I mean we can share a bag of trail mix.

Both Niko and Erric will be in that paddock as well. Greg will be napping as his Mazda self-circles the block searching for parking.

Alas, the newest incarnation of the former Mazda 6, the EZ-6 (fully electric), is so far being sold only in China. I'll be first in line if a version of it with an extended range someday makes it to the U.S. If it's a typical Mazda, it's a blast to drive.

^^ That's cute.
255 HP, 50/50 weight distribution, RWD. Cool interior too with heads up windshield display and voice command for most functions.

Still trying to figure out some practical ways for shedding some weight off of it. Its bloated at ~3400 right now.

Remove the sound deadening and rear seats! Swap everything possible for carbon fiber and aluminium.
