    Rennsport Reunion IV

    The Porsche Rennsport Reunion IV was at Laguna Seca this year, largely because the organisers took the opportunity to hold the event the same weekend as the long-planned Porsche Race Car Classic show at Quail Lodge in Carmel. The result was four days of exquisite Porsche overload... pure car porn for the faithful. This was the first time Rennsport Reunion has visited the west coast and expectations were high, to say the least. From my perspective there was little disappointment. An awe-inspiring gathering of historic cars and their fans.

    Compared to Daytona the facilities were rather cramped, but that didn't seem to matter to the estimated 60,000 that attended. For participants it meant limited paddock space and no personal vehicles, so everything was shuttled in and out. Track sessions were 20 minutes each, and amazingly the schedules ran on time. Kudos to the track and paddock staff for that.

    We'll start with a few photos of the Porsche Garage display, from the first Porsche 911 that raced in the USA (#18, won it's class at Daytona in 1965) to the hybrid that ran Lemans, still battle scarred.

    Never own more cars than you can keep charged batteries in...
