I took a few pics too; we started very early at SharkWerks; the weather wasn’t as good as yesterday. I have not seen that many Porsches in one place until today.

Since I can't add much to the fantastic photos that Frank and Eugene have already posted, I'll just add a few that are a little different than the others (with some captions up top). Hope you enjoy them!

Our arrival in the fog (about 7:20am):


Alex's car looked like it belonged on the track -- I think they just waved him into the display area :


Warm up laps in the fog -- must have felt lonely out there:


At least the pace car was keeping things under control:


One of the best picture taking spots on the track -- the Corkscrew:


Strategically placed signage:


More Corkscrew:


Now that's making use of the full width of the track :


Sun is out and the corral is full -- note that this is just part of one of the corrals:


The track is getting full too:


Helping to keep the cars secure, or just checking out the cars?


Mr. von Platen (President, Porsche North America):


Dr. Wolfgang Porsche (question: is there a new mid-engine Porsche in design? answer: No (with a Big Smile)):
