Details will be forthcoming, but I had a very positive attendance at the shop today on five-day's notice and I've decided that it's time to have a real Florida event.

It will be in 2012.

Stand by........


Those who were there, post your pictures here.

Stopped by Daytona Speedway which is near Joe's shop.





This is the farthest the car has travelled from mile house so far, 110 miles one way.

Proof that the 914 is always a chick magnet. This nice young lady sold fried
chicken and malt beverages at a local establishment.

Congratulations, Joe. Great to see your shop facilities after following so many of the threads on the projects you have completed.

Now know you are located in Florida!!

Joe, Just wanted to say thanks for hosting a fun event for us. It was great meeting some new folks and sharing a great Saturday evening with so many "infected" 914 sicko's!! Can't wait to help with the Ramble...we must do it

Posted by: Tom_T Jul 24 2011, 01:37 PM

Would that be a FLAT Ramble, or a Swamp Ramble!?

.... I suppose you could do multiple circuits around both hills in Florida for the twisty effect!

Posted by: racerbvd Jul 24 2011, 02:36 PM

Joe has a Air Field right there, so it could be a very FUN Ramble..

Posted by: rick 918-S Jul 24 2011, 04:35 PM

Thanks for the wonderful bottle of Pinot Noir and the great photos John!

We are looking forward to the Southern Fried Gator Ramble. Old school air strip AX, Air Port Bar, Great folks and good times!

I'd be up for a Florida RRC, always looking for an excuse to drive home. Keep us posted.

Posted by: kevin311 Jul 25 2011, 12:14 PM

I can't wait, this will be my first event.
My schedule will work around it.

Posted by: Series9 Jul 27 2011, 06:19 AM

Here's what I can tell you about the event:

It will cost an estimated $95 to register.

It will be three days.

Everyone who registers will get a custom embroidered work shirt, free draft beer in the evenings and several meals.

It will be in the spring or fall of 2012.

There will be an AX on the DeLand airport.

I will try to have it coincide with some sports car racing at Daytona, preferably historics.

I'm going to go drive the RS on the beach to see if it's realistic for us to set up a beach photo shoot.

We will use the restaurant at Skydive DeLand as our banquet hub and people who would like to make a tandem skydive while here will be offered discounted rates.

Posted by: Series9 Jul 27 2011, 07:16 AM

I can't believe it will have been five years since I put on the Atomic Ramble in NM.


Anyhow, the shirts everyone will receive with their paid registration will be similar to this:

Sounds like you're on it, Joe.

If it coincides with Historics at Daytona maybe we could get some parade laps?

Where do I sign?

Posted by: VRROOMM1 Jul 27 2011, 02:50 PM

hey we have mountins i live in mount dora fl. and we do have a lot of flat good roads.(and swamps) im in

Posted by: URY914 Jul 27 2011, 05:18 PM

Will all the shirts have Wills' name on them?

Posted by: carr914 Jul 27 2011, 05:37 PM

Those ain't Mountains - they are as big as Hills get down here, but not Mountains

Not as much Vintage @ Daytona as there is at Sebring. The PCA Race @ Daytona is in October every year

Paul, I'll even autograph yours.

Posted by: Al Meredith Jul 27 2011, 09:00 PM

I'm interested, I've been to three 914 events , love them AL

Posted by: SirAndy Jul 27 2011, 09:06 PM

I've been planning to visit friends in Florida for quite a while now, so that would be a good excuse to hang around a bit longer!

Posted by: Series9 Jul 28 2011, 07:56 AM

Right now, I'm leaning toward late April or early May.

Fall of next year is just too far off.
