Porsche The Rally Reunion: Porsche Karuizawa Rally Commemorative Album

A wonderful album gift from Porsche

The reunion event of the Karuizawa Porsche Stamp Rally in June 2018 held at Museo Gotemba the other day.

One of the souvenirs I received at this time was very, very, very moving! !! !! That is ... this June's "Album" by The Rally -Amazing Moment-.

I posted it on my blog about the time of the Karuizawa rally several times, but at the time of this rally event, the people in the shooting team took a lot of pictures and videos.

Looking at them, I had a faint expectation with the entrants, saying, "I'm sure you'll be able to put together something at the end" (laughs).

…But.

Five months have already passed since the rally was held, "Oh, those photos and videos are the purpose that Porsche will use for future recording and marketing, is there anything in the entrant after all?" I was starting to think for a moment (← I understand that I was expecting it quite bluntly (laughs)), now! !! !!

No way! !! !!

This really really nice album! !!

Suddenly it appeared in front of me! !! !!

If you say this impression (tears). Thank you very much (crying).

The Rally's album was more "impressive" than I had imagined (tears)

It seems that these albums will be delivered to the entrants who did not participate in this rally's reunion event at a later date.

When I asked Mr. Entrant who did not participate in this event, it seemed that he had not received it yet, so I would like to not write details about this album here.

It was a moving book that was more than I had imagined, "I really did something like this."

I would like all the entrants to feel this excitement by picking up the album, and soon ... after all the entrants received the album and were impressed, what? I would like to add that I was even more impressed ^ ^

I hurriedly took this opportunity to be involved in the planning and production of this album, as well as the photographers and film crew who took this opportunity to take a lot of wonderful photos and videos during the hot weather at The Rally. I would like to thank everyone. It's really a lifelong treasure ... That's why Porsche-related lifelong treasures are increasing steadily ... (laughs).

I'm glad I was able to thank you for taking a picture of my car ...

I arrived at Museo Gotemba on the day, got this album, and then sat down at the lunch table. Since the seating place was decided in advance, I was guided to the decided place and took a seat.

I lightly said "Hello, excuse me" to the person who was already sitting next to me, and then took a seat. I wanted to see the album sooner, so I opened the album and started watching it ... I was so impressed that it was next to me. If you instinctively talk to someone who came to Japan, "Wow! Did you see this ?? Isn't it really ??"

"Oh, that's what I took."

I was told ... "Yes, yeah !!!", and when I saw him, he was a photographer, Mr. Ogawa (laughs). ↓ The photo is from Mr. Ogawa's greeting.

No, no, I would say to the Porsche photographer who "photographed" these wonderful Porsche people, "Isn't it great, did you see this?"! !! Hey. I must sincerely apologize. I'm sure Mr. Ogawa was also surprised (laughs). I'm really sorry ~.

However, I was happy to be able to thank him for taking the picture directly! It's a miracle that I can tell such a happy thing directly to the person who took these wonderful pictures (* Not all the pictures in the album were taken by Mr. Ogawa). Thank you again!

The way back from Museo Gotemba

By the way, I went home with such a wonderful souvenir. On the way back from Museo Gotemba, this time I'm driving a black 911 Carrera and my husband is driving in front of me with a white GT3.

My husband had a little stop on the way home, so I ran with him only halfway through the highway, but this time I could see the GT3 running from behind, and the drive on the way home was full of happiness.

The power of appearance of GT3 is different again. And as usual, Mr. Kuro Carrera's running was very light and awesome!

In this autumn leaves drive, I passed many Porsche, but it was a sunny day for the autumn leaves drive, so it was fun to pass by many other wonderful cars.

It's Ferrari.

It's NSX.

As with the Karuizawa Rally in June, I enjoyed the nature with Porsche 911, and I have one more wonderful memory.

I'm sure there will be a day when we can meet the entrants who couldn't meet again this time, and the entrants who could meet at Museo Gotemba this time, at some event. Looking forward to that time, I would like to immerse myself in the memories while looking at the wonderful album I received on this day ^ ^

Thank you for the wonderful rally reunion event!
