To date I've met super star Delibes on one of his many travels and Govert (from here and BW)

I may have met vstech in 1976 when I went to the same school as him but I don't remember him in particular.

it's unlikely we were in that school at the same time... I was there in 78/79... I left when the Ayatollah Khomeini gained power...

It would be hard for me to count, as there are so many. My brother and I have organized many GTG's and cruises, and meet new forum members every time. I am sure the list would be longer than Charlie's (charmalu), but don't know the exact count. I know it is not a competition, so I will not even try to list them. However, I have to say that this forum is a wonderful place to hang out and meet great people (sometimes even in person). With more future drives planned, I am sure I will meet more forum members....Rich

Edit: It is also nice to meet the cars too!
