UV is not trying to overhype his presence to draw participation. He's a personal friend to some of us and so he's just sending the FYI that he is back in town.

For those who are really into fast cars or watch speed channel or are on the L4P forums, will know him and might be interested to meet him.

Do a google and see if you are interested.

I see. I guess I'm just not THAT into cars. Must be like me when I take pictures with corporate CEOs and post it on Facebook like they're celebrities, but no ones cares.

I've been to private parties and rubbed elbows with Larry Ellison and I used to work for Bob Metcalfe who co-INVENTED Ethernet, but many people don't know who they are either, hence not found on my Facebook.

VRAlexander to most is just a mystery Porsche driver, but a lil backround.. he was the first to own the Porsche CGT, a Zonda, and the first to import some of the world's fastest cars. Known for speed, many shops and drivers wonder what is under the hood of his mystery porsche 996. those that watched the supercar showdown knows that is NOT what a normal engine sounds like. RMMS4 and I to this date still dont know and cant figure out, and he wont tell. He is also the producer/director for some speed channel shows coming up. so those that know him have always wanted to ask him personal questions about some of his cars and their amazing horsepower.. so this is the chance. those that dont know him.. o well, no biggie.

I'll be there on Friday to meet up with Alex.

Hopefully we can mix a little business with pleasure.

There's a lot of wide open road in the Pacific Commons area.
