SPECIAL MESSAGES:
We have a very special
event coming up this week, on Sunday, October 2nd from 10am – 1pm. It’s the 2nd
Annual Porsche vs Ferrari Concours and Car Show at Moorespeed. Event
Coordinator John Brindley reports that we are sold out of our spots for
judged and display cars. But, we have plenty of
space for spectator parking onsite. Last year’s event drew an estimated crowd
of about 250 people. We are expecting an even bigger event this year! We will
have 50 judged cars in four classes: 1949-1969; 1970-1989; 1990-2009; and
2010-2022. Our display section will feature 30 more cars from both
marques.
There will be food and
drinks on site in the form of Granny’s Taco truck, Apex Coffee tent, and the
Infamous Brewery tent (free beer).
Watch for more event
details coming out in a separate eNews tomorrow!

In The Rearview Mirror
Sept 25 Escape to the Estate Wine Tasting
We
had an absolute blast this afternoon at Flat Creek Estates winery! We
packed the covered pavilion with about 55 HCR members (plus 2 from Longhorn)
and enjoyed a 5-wine tasting flight, plus some excellent food selections from
the onsite restaurant. The "live" music was really a treat…Kyle
played some awesome classic rock tunes on his guitar. Lots of Eagles, Pink
Floyd, Beatles, etc. (Yes, we walked away with a case of wine from the tasting
room to stock our wine fridge). Thanks Amber and Crystal for a fun and
different Sunday afternoon event with our Porsche friends!
Sept 24 Espressos and Exotics Car Show
Another
bigger turnout at the Fall version of Espressos and Exotics, sponsored by
Porsche Austin! Porsches spilled over into multiple lots after we filled our
main Porsche section. Free handmade breakfast tacos from the taco truck were a
big hit, plus the free coffee at the barista bar was top-notch! Besides our
beloved Porsches, there was a cool old Lancia and, oh my, a Pantera GTS
with a lovely, gnarly exhaust note.
