Nice! I was at the 2013 Fest. It was my first track event. It's great to see Nelson Ledges still going - a few years ago they shut down completely due to the condition of the track, and I thought that was the end of it.

It’s been repaved and lots of other improvements. Nice track to drive!

One of the highlights was the really nice thing that the ‘fest team’ did. They arranged to pick up a 944 that was going to be fixed up and raffled off at the event. In reality they were fixing up mechanical issues, full tune up and detail and then given back to the son of the owner. Really nice gesture and the new owner was really moved by it.
Great social event…dont miss it. (Like I have for the past 10 years - not going to miss it again!)

That's awesome, and congrats on the trophy! I don't think I've ever seen that many 944's in one place in real life. Just checked and its 2,539 miles and 37 hours from me, per google. :( Do they give an award for furthest travelers? Anyone there drive from the West Coast?
