Default Porsche Meeting in germanys black forrest

Two weeks ago we had the last meeting with the guys from the porsche forum for this year because most of the porsches will be prepared soon for wintersleep.

sadly the weather wasn't very good but while driving around very fast we had luck and and dry streets on the curvaceous roads up and down the mountains. was a very scenic drive despite the bad wheater. i guess i really left a lot of rubber on those streets....

here are some impressions:

Haha. . ROFL. . . haha. Actually judging by the weather, if it was a Ferrari meet, I think only 2 cars would've showed up.

Thanks for the pics! Nice to see a gathering of enthusiast like that.

it's not really a problem to drive them during wintertime, especially the newer models. but if there would be a car like an old rs or something like that in my garage i wouldn't drive it in winter too because those older models doesen't have things like underbody covering....

German Schwarzwald

Mountain region, Baden-Württemberg, southwestern Germany.

It extends in a fairly narrow strip about 100 mi (160 km) along the eastern bank of the upper Rhine River, from the Neckar to the Swiss border. Its highest peak is Feldberg, at 4,905 ft (1,495 m). Its name comes from its dark interior, the higher parts being thickly forested with fir and pine. It is the source of the Neckar and Danube rivers. The setting of many of the Grimm brothers' fairy tales, it is famed for the beauty and charm of its villages and rolling hills. Winter sports are prominent in the area, which also has many mineral springs and watering places, including Baden-Baden. The forest has suffered serious damage from acid rain.
cool translation 8)
