“When we were finally allowed down, we were met with cheers and
waves all the way! These people were surrounded by all manner of
interesting racecars, and they were waving and cheering for US.
Maybe I'm a little slow, but it wasn't until that moment that I
realized that this "scene", if you will, is something special...
even by enthusiast standards.
You
just don't see that many 928s, not in ten years, never mind dozens of them
parading through a tiny town in the Appalachians. The 928 is an important
marker in the history of sports cars, and enthusiasts respond to it. We're
preserving our culture here, a small piece of the answer to why there are
car guys.”
