I remember when i was younger that in Park City, Utah there was a porsche gathering on labor day. All the porsche's would drive down park city main street in the parade. Does anyone know what happened? Is there any 914 meetings in utah, colorado, arizona, idaho, or nevada?

thanks,
Josh

The Intermountain Region of the PCA is very active.
http://vista.pca.org/int/
Check with them for meetings and events in your area.
They sponsor a race in Vegas every year. The members I have met are all very nice.

Don't know about any porsche events in Park City, but as soon as Eric Shea gets his 6 on the road, we plan a trip up to park city. The more 914's the better.

Josh,

Provo huh..
thats cool...
I've got friends that live in Provo.

Once upon a time there was discussion about a utah group getting together with our colorado group...

I'd definitely like to do this some time...
I'll remain open minded as to the when/where/ and planning in general.

Wanna take the reins?

The six just came alive... now all I need are updated plates.

Jim... let's talk about getting this thing to Ed.

Josh, I'm the editor for the Intermountain Regions Zeitung magazine. I don't recall the Park City cruise in the 8 years that I've been here. We do have a “CONCOURS D’ÉLÉGANCE" up there every September/October now though. I don't have any dates for this years event yet.

As Jim (Stratplayer) mentioned, we're good to go on a PC cruise. I need to get the emmissions test done and get some current plates on this beast and away we go...

Here's a link to my friend's tour site. He runs Boxster tours throughout the state. This is an upcoming Moab tour. Jack Brittain is the Dean if the Eccles Business School at the U of U. You may have seen him in last Saturday's Salt Lake Tribune announcing the Lori kay Soares Hacking Memorial Scholarship Fund (donate if you can).

All Porsche's welcome and his tours are fantastic...
