Special thanks to Thomas, Albert, and Matt for their support and their class act this morning.

It was my (and wife's) first trip to CC and met some great 6speeders in person. We flew low pro through the gathering, but felt the energy and emotion all around.

Ben would have been proud...

Gentleman,
Thank you for such an inspiring and genuine day. I cannot explain it, but I feel that I was lucky to be there and lucky to be involved with the 6SpeedOnline crew. A truly remarkable day for a truly remarkable man.

Great tribute.
I never knew Ben, except here, but he was always active on the posts or when I had a question.
So weird to come on this site and not to see his avatar anymore.
So sad.

...remember, there is a whole section for Ben. Posting all over the forum makes things a bit tricky to keep up with.

These pictures are stunning and almost brought a tear to my eyes. I didn't know him as well as you guys, but I used to get into friendly debates with him on the m3 board and have added the memoriam pic to my sig in his honor.

Thanks for all of the wonderful comments - we have special community here and I'm just proud to be a part of it.
As someone mentioned earlier, I'm sure Ben's looking down on us and smiling - great job everyone.

Nice pics, had a great time. The cruise was a fun one and a good way to remember why we were there. Too bad I was in the last of the caravan with only like 4 Porsches. Great pics none the less.
