Who's going to Lime Rock?

I'll be there, no DB9 yet, so driving my Range Rover. At least it's British...
As the recent AMOC badge thread revealed, many here are AMOC members..
SO, who is going to Lime Rock for the 43'd annual meeting?

Didn't you have a blue Vanquish? If so, that was a damn nice looking car. Did someone finally buy it?

No, not me. I wish..
I'm a former Transaxle Porsche guy (924 track car, 937 Carrera GT &GTS) I left the fold when they gave up on the transaxle cars and veered into just keeping the 911 crowd happy.

I got confused. There's a guy on the AMOC forum named Bluecab from Mass and he had posted photos of a blue Vanq. I mistakenly thought it was his car. But you must be AMOC 'Bluecab'?

You can spectate, but not participate. Walk thru the Friday concours at the hotel or watch the cars run around Lime Rock on Saturday.

Was going to bring a date, but my losing streak (winning streak?) continues so I'll be flying solo instead. But I changed my plans and I'll be getting in a day earlier, on Thursday. I should be easy to spot

No rain in the forecast for Saturday. I'm looking to head up on Saturday. I know telum1 will be there Thursday on, but what about others?

If you're going up for Sat, better get there early, otherwise it may be over. Frankly, unless you are actually driving on the track, there's not much to see since Astons and some other group (Porsche?) alternate taking turns on the track. After 10 minutes watching them go roundy round, it gets pretty boring.

Honestly, Friday is the day to go to see all the cars displayed at the concours across the street from the Interlaken Inn (that runs from around 10 'ish till around 2 'ish.
