I've got to say, I was thrilled to be elected Vice President of the Hurricane Region. What an awesome honor!! Being the first two-time recipient of the Golden Clamp award... not so much. No, I jest. I am truly honored to be recognized by the club for not only burying an engine under my parent's deck in 1981, but also driving off from a gas pump with the nozzle still in the filler; although my car catching on fire is the much more popular activity to receive ribbing about (especially from Chris Saba!). But enough of that!

I have just returned from the Porsche Southpoint Grand Opening. And what a gala affair it was! Not only were there many cars there from Bob Ingram's collection, there was a staff of incredibly nice and receptive people there to greet us. But there is one gentleman in particular I wanted to mention: Brian is a new service technician who joined the Porsche Southpoint team just two weeks ago and who has only been working on Porsches for about a year, having been a Maserati and Ferrari tech previously. Tasked with manning the door to the shop during the grand event, Brian didn't get to see any of the festivities happening  "front of house", but he undertook his task with aplomb and took time to talk to my son, Grant, about the alignment he had recently performed on our '03 Boxster, patiently explaining the issues he encountered with the alignment. Brian is extremely friendly and personable and I am glad I had the opportunity to get to know him better. So, thanks Porsche Southpoint for that, lots of good wine and food, the enjoyable company of your staff, and most importantly, parking Yellowbird right out front for all to see!!!
