914World.com _ 914World Garage _ West Coast Ramble 2011 in Medford Oregon- Roll Call

Posted by: JRust Feb 17 2011, 02:51 PM

Hey all this is a roll call for WCR 2011 June 23,24,25 & 26th. All the info is in this thread
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act=ST&f=2&t=108997&st=0#entry1343229

This will turn into the official registration thread soon. For now this is just a roll call. Please chime in if you are coming? Also if you have made your hotel reservation yet. I'm trying to figure our registration costs now. It will help having an idea on who is coming though.

You know you plan to come anyway. If you haven't allready made your boast to be there. Now is the time beer.gif

My plans now are to drive my 914 car from Atlanta to Medford and then leave the car somewhere on the west coast for a few months and then come back in the fall for the return drive. Anybody got any inside storage I could rent for a couple of months.

I'm in and have made my reservation at the La Quinta. Just gotta get some new shoes...

I'm in and have made res at the LaQuinta.

I have plenty of outside storage for free Big Kat. Very safe and secure property. That time of year outside is fine for the NW.
I'm in Portland area not too far from the Airport.

Actually Bob I can probably hook you up there. Worst case it would be under a carport. I only have 2 stalls in my barn right now. I do have at least 3 spots of covered area's it could park out of any weather. I am north of Medford but you can catch the flight out of Eugene no problem. I am a good 5 hours north of Medford though.

Oh but I do reserve the right to look at all your suby stuff & copy anything happy11.gif . Storage is free though

Posted by: biosurfer1 Feb 17 2011, 05:24 PM

I will be there...maybe +1. I will make my reservations soon.

Posted by: PeeGreen 914 Feb 17 2011, 05:35 PM

Okay, Time off requested and granted, hotel res made, wife is looking forward to it, car is scheduled for paint touch ups in April...... sweeeeeeeet piratenanner.gif

Posted by: KELTY360 Feb 17 2011, 05:59 PM

I'm in and my reservations have been made.

I could also provide storage for that 914/eg33 if you want to leave it in Seattle. Really looking forward to seeing that engine in a 914.

Posted by: mstein95 Feb 17 2011, 06:22 PM

The Stein's will be there (2 adults, 2 kids 11,9 and one basset hound)
One 914 and one family truckster

No reservations yet but plan on staying at host hotel.

Can't wait.

I promised Hotshoe a 914 to drive if he flew out

Posted by: Daiberl Feb 17 2011, 11:24 PM

I'm in if I get the car running, everything is back together but the first start of the engine will happen in around 2 weeks and then I should know better. I also have to bring the car down to Jerry (jmmotorsports), he painted the car and once it;s done he will planned to do some wet sanding and I got a few scratches in the paint which need to be fixed. If I come then very likely +1 since my daughter wants to come too but she will have her 8th birthday on June 25th smile.gif . No reservations yet.

Posted by: roadster fan Feb 18 2011, 12:14 AM

I'm in, haven't made any arrangements yet but will work on that tomorrow after I find out if the wife and kid are in.

BigKat I would have the space for you if you wanted to drive to the Santa Cruz/Monterey Area and leave it. Plenty of major airports to take ya to and pick up from when you return within an hour. But like Jaime I am not responsible if/when all the suby swap tricks are copied shades.gif

Posted by: Sailor Feb 18 2011, 12:32 AM

Me and my copilot should be there. Still working on lugguage solutions.

If the car is running, I'm in. Plus the wife. Made reservations a couple miles up the road where I could use some reward points from work travel.

Posted by: Loser_Cruiser Feb 18 2011, 10:54 PM

girlfriend and me in 911 (parts car)

Posted by: strawman Feb 18 2011, 11:19 PM

We will be there (me, wife Nancy, 14-yr old daughter Cassidy & a friend, and maybe my mother). We plan to get reservations tomorrow. Hopefully, the teener will be running...

Me +1

Posted by: J P Stein Feb 19 2011, 11:12 AM

I'll be there to watch & tell lies....at least for the AX part.
I'll be driving my truck so if anyone needs tires or other stuff hauled down from the Portland area, lemmno.

Posted by: jcd914 Feb 19 2011, 12:56 PM

Wife and I are planning to be there,.

I will not be bringing a 914, unless someone gives me a runner.

I will be bring home brewed beer!! beer3.gif

I will NOT be driving Rob's car up this year.

Made reservations a few minutes ago.

My wife has a conflict at work, her boss has taken that week off. She is supervising a 24/7, level 2 help desk and normally he covers for her when she is out, so she is going to have to work out other coverage.

JP,
We need to talk, might need some help as I'm a little oversubscribed that weekend.....Chuck's Shasta weekend is that weekend.
I'll be in touch, out of town right now.

Yes, probably +1 if the wife can take the time off. Have not made reservations yet, but plan to stay in the hotel. Will be driving the 914.

Posted by: hot_shoe914 Feb 22 2011, 10:27 PM

Well, I have officially reserved a flight to Portland on the 22nd, now to scrape up the $10.00 bucks that the ticket cost me. Sure hope I can sell enough parts to raise the dough. Hope to be there if all goes well.

I'll be there assuming I get my butt in gear and finish the car. I tore it down for repaint 3 years ago. Engine hopefully going back in this weekend. The minor details are taking me longer than expected!

I'm looking forward to seeing all the 914s in town.

Thanks, Brian

We don't care if your car is running. There will be plenty of people there not in there 914. It is a can't miss weekend. Especially in your home town poke.gif . Seriously though it is a great weekend. You won't regret being there even if you are not in your teener. If you need help with your car just holler. There are a few guys in your area I am sure would be more than willing to help with the install. I would consider it too in the coming weeks. I need to make a trip down anyway smile.gif

OK, it is official... we just reserved three rooms for my family. I hope to have the car running and ready for the autocross, but it will probably be on a trailer (won't be licensed yet).

I'll bring a 5 gal keg of homebrew to share, too. Woohoo!

Updated the main thread on people. Things are looking great but we all want more. Get your hotel reservations made. LaQuinta is filling up fast. They gave us a good rate so let's fill that sucker up. Much better having a bunch of teeners there than other people who might complain about us being to loud confused24.gif

Rain and arthritis...

My car is in the driveway (because the garage already has a 914 inside). Rain has slowed the progress a bit. It seems to rain every weekend lately.

I have been having real bad back pain as well. My Dr says I have arthritis and bone spurs. Not much I can do with it. They have me on Salsalate (anti inflamitory). Progress is slow and I have to take breaks.

So, if I make it this year it will be last minute. There's always next year...

We all understand if you can't make it. IT does suck to tow your car to a WCR & not have it get off the trailer for sure. Only a total dip stromberg.gif would do that blink.gif . Seriously though if you have the parts. Have a work party man. Amazing what a bunch of teeners can manage with BBQ & beer.gif . We'd all like to help get you there.

Posted by: ThinAir May 1 2011, 10:31 PM

Linda & I are in. We'll be flat-towing the 914 behind the Eurovan Camper. Sent an e-mail to the RV park tonight & hoping they still have an open spot.
