914World.com _ 914World Garage _ WCR 2013 The Dalles, OR - Shilo Inn
Posted by: Mikey914 Nov 12 2012, 11:39 PM
I negotiated a group rate and have 15 rooms set up to start, The rate will be $99 a night, it's not a Motel 6, but not the W, but a good older hotel that will have a parking lot for us to "meet" in and they're ok with us BBQ'n in the parking lot.
There's not a lot of choice in that area that will meet our needs. This should meet our needs nicely.
I'll have the group code for the rate in a few days.
2 Queens or King room. Not a ton of savings but $10-$20 a night less.

How far is it from the airport ?

Now I have a deadline for my car...

Yahoo!

I was thinking the same thing. Now that it seems I can get by with a refurb, and not a restore, June seems about right.
Also...The Dalles Oregon is a nice drive from Moscow Idaho.
Posted by: JimN73 Nov 21 2012, 10:07 AM
My wife has found that the Shiloh Inn has a VETERANS rate, it's only $89. Look for a dropdown in the rate area.
That savings pays for my gas.

Nice !
How far is it from the airport ?About 45min down the gorge.
I spoke with BKLA yesterday and we may at least be able to get a parade lap at the Oregon Raceway, and I'm trying to put together a lunch as part of the experience there. Track time looks like it may not happen, but it's just a matter of $$$.
The vetrans rate and the AAA rate may be better as it looks like $99 a night + tax is the best I can get. They will set aside a back parking lot for us and we can have a BBQ out there. We can also run a few clinics. I was thinking about doing an Acrylic polishing one, and maybe aluminum polishing. If we can get a few others that want to step up I hope to have a 2-2-1/2 hour block of instructional how to's each could be about 30 min with a 10min space between to facilitate transition.
More to come

Proposed Bay Area caravan route:
- Leaving Wednesday, June 12th
- Driving up 101 north along the coast to Bandon, OR and stay overnight. Estimated driving time: 9 hours.
- There's a nice motel at the beach in Bandon that we stayed at on our way to the WCR in Seattle.
- Leave Bandon early on Thursday morning, continue north on 101 and cut over to Portland using 18.
- Pass through Portland and drive east on 30 to The Dalles. Estimated driving time: 7:30 hours.
- Going back home is either the reverse (preferred) or if we're in a hurry, we can just take 5 all the way down.

If you have time the Bandon Game park is on your route, it's pretty cool.

Good idea. I'll go a week early, check into the hotel, give myself an award for best driving lights, do the fun run
and then be home the next week for my Sons wedding. The wedding might not happen anyway. He proposed at the top of Mt. Whitney. That's 14,000 feet. I told him he was probably hypoxic when he proposed, so he could probably get out of it OK. 
Cheers, Elliot

And the fact we are not a legal entity makes insurance more difficult. If we can piggy back on with another group then the cost is much more reasonable. We were looking at having to cover about $6k for a day, and the math is not there.
Posted by: ConeDodger Nov 21 2012, 01:39 PM
Ok, I've got to figure out how to embed the map. I probably have the most fun route I can imagine, though running up the coast sounds incredible. My route is 10 hours and some change and goes through mountains all the way. I think a night in Klamath Falls to split it up but it looks like the drive of a lifetime...

I am trying to tie us with another organization that may use that weekend. If a group will do that for us, track day would be around $250/day.

Also, Here is a proposed road trip that takes about 2 hrs. Detour to ORP at lunch for a parade lap & BBQ/Lunch at the FinnSport garage.
I've driven about half of this route and it is sweet! In the spring, ill drive the 216/197 route and check it out.

Parade lap is cool...As long as the pace car is going 100 MPH.
Posted by: Eddie914 Nov 21 2012, 06:41 PM
It take about two laps at 100 MPH just to warm up the tires and brakes!

Stone Hedge and the mueseum and the park are pretty nice , 20 miles up the river

As of right now, I'll be there with my wife. But she doesn't really care about track or AX events. Are there going to be other wives there who would like to join her in sightseeing, wine/beer tasting or other events? Local knowledge?

My wife will be there too. She may need some distraction as well. Talk her into organizing a Women's event day. If she plans it, they will come...
Posted by: BKLA Nov 22 2012, 11:46 AM
There are a great number of local attractions, museums and events in the gorge area. Significant others who are not interested in car related functions will have plenty of things to do and explore.
Here are a couple of links:
http://www.historicthedalles.org/
http://www.el.com/to/thedalles/
I created a list of a number of other interests and will provide that info (and more) as we get closer to the event.

I strongly suggest that the route back to The Dalles from Maryhill be via Goldendale and 142 to Lyle. There is a section along 142 in the canyon that doesn't have a center stripe. It is two-way, but you can use the whole thing as long as there is no opposing traffic.

Back ion the 80s we took the 75 914 to Seattle, up I5 and back down the coast. We planned a 5 day trip back, going over to Long Beach and then South. Took 4 days to get to Eureka, CA. There were enough RVs, moving road blocks and reasons to stop on the highway to keep our average speed down to under 40 mph.
Beautiful tri and we'll do it again if we have more time.
Posted by: Mr.242 Nov 25 2012, 11:37 AM
I will get this on my calendar and hopefully can block out any other things that might pop up. Pretty sure the wife will join too.

Yes you can book the rooms no problem They have set aside 15 rooms at this time.
Contact the hotel Directly We will have a parking lot in the back there should be enough room for the trailer or two.
Let him know you want the 914world rate of $99 a night. Should be the same as the AAA rate.

I should be there with wife and Pugs, is the hotel pet friendly??
If not, I'll bring the MH and find a RV park nearby. If no wife and no Pugs, then no problem.....I'll drive the 914 on her own.
Posted by: Mikey914 Nov 28 2012, 12:51 AM
I have not checked, but a call tomorrow would answer the question. I too have a pug that I'm sure my wife would love to bring. I have the day job tomorrow, would you mind checking and posting back.
Thanks,
Mark
Posted by: aircooledtechguy Nov 28 2012, 01:26 AM
Those with dogs are O.K. They have pet rates.
My reservation is in. I'll have my wife, and my 2 youngest kids with me. My wife and daughter will probably do their thing while me and my son do "manly things".
Looking forward to this!!
BTW, I may not be in the 914 this year. The Squarsche is almost more fun to drive than the 914. It's way faster too!!
Posted by: rdauenhauer Nov 28 2012, 11:02 PM

This isn't going to be a Kit Car Convention.

Looks like I'm in for sure. The Dalles Inn is dog friendly even has a pug on the front page, just incase the Shillo inn won't accmodate. I'll figure something out to keep the wife and Pups busy this time so I can go out and play

Rich, you need to make this. I went to the last one unemployed. TC wants you to smell his pugs. No excuses. And bring Troy. Speaking of excuses... But if you make him take showers he won't smell too bad.

Rand I DO want to come but things are ...*tight*, to say the least.
Hell, If'n Id made it to Corvalis, Greenie would still be LOOKING for his Big boy pants!
Actually Ive got two irons in the fire right now (finally), one IS going to land me a job, but as a new employee I wouldnt have any time off......
Posted by: rdauenhauer Dec 1 2012, 12:31 PM
What about RV parking? Then Id be in it for the gas but could save on the room?

I'm booked!!!!
For some reason the girl taking the reservation didn't know anything about the 914 world or Porsche event, hope I booked the right place ????
I requested a lower room facing the pool, looks like a good place to relax after rambling all day
I am still thinking of the RV but the wife may need something to drive if I leave her behind

Posted by: Mikey914 Jan 9 2013, 12:34 AM
We have room for the cars in the back. I think I could pursuade mamagement that we have hirred security to watch the cars so we could sneak in 1 RV, but I'm pretty sure we would have a problem with more.

eric, a 300 mile shake down run prob isn't such a good idea. 300 or less before you set out to work out any bugs might save you major hassles. by the time you get home it'll be over 1000. seen it a few times...radiator failure on a v-8 conv, shift bushing go kaput, wheel bearing adj, cables...

Yea I've thought about that. We'll see how soon I get it put back together, and if I get to drive it much before hand.
If I don't get much time to ensure it is reliable, I may trailer to the event. But only if you guys promise not to call my baby "Trailer Queen".
Posted by: BKLA Jan 9 2013, 02:10 PM
...not that you need any help, but here is a link to some videos on the track. The cool thing about ORP is we can run it both directions... I prefer CW in a car because its more challenging (blind apexes, off camber exits, etc.) but it is not for novices IMHO. Ive done CCW on a bike and felt more comfortable as to apexes and visual clarity, so we could do CCW the first few sessions to get people comfortable and then go CW if people want.
Either direction is a blast to drive and will challenge even TC, should he join us from the far south

Hey Mike Bellis are you trailering your car up? And what day are you leaving? I'll be leaving wensday morning about 11:00 am.
Not sure on either yet. I Can leave Wednesday but that's a long way off right now. Might be a midnight build just before leaving... never know.
I will certainly caravan with you if the timing works out.
What about the rest of you wussies? What's your excuse not to go?

Calling Jakeodoule to the white courtesy phone! I see you lurking son. Are you coming out for this one?
Posted by: cary Jan 9 2013, 07:34 PM
Just come & leave. Only an a couple hours back to OSU. Party with your son & come back
Jamie, I was kind of thinking the same thing.
I haven't seen the time schedule yet.
Time will tell ..............
Posted by: jsconst Jan 9 2013, 10:50 PM
My car is done for now.....and ready to go.
Not sure when I'm leaving yet, depends on what job I'm working on, too soon to tell.
Probably leave sometime Thursday at the latest.

Booked my room will arrive on Thursday.The Lady I talked to didn't know anything about our event and said that the contact has not been confirm,and will give us the group rate when the contact gets confirmed. John
I was told by the person at the desk that there was not a group rate at this time.
They gave us a discounted rate so asking for the group rate caused confusion with the woman I spoke with. After giving them the dates she saw the discounted price and then took my reservation.

eric, a 300 mile shake down run prob isn't such a good idea. 300 or less before you set out to work out any bugs might save you major hassles. by the time you get home it'll be over 1000. seen it a few times...radiator failure on a v-8 conv, shift bushing go kaput, wheel bearing adj, cables...
k
Yea I've thought about that. We'll see how soon I get it put back together, and if I get to drive it much before hand.
If I don't get much time to ensure it is reliable, I may trailer to the event. But only if you guys promise not to call my baby "Trailer Queen".
whats wrong with owning a trailer queen!

Linda & I will likely be there and make it part of a vacation. We love the area and we had such a great time at Medford that it will be great to go back to Oregon. Unfortunately, I'll be sans-914. The 2 trips we've made with the Eurovan Camper towing the 914 have resulted in radiator fan failures while crossing Nevada. We're just not going to take the chance anymore on towing.

I'm guessing you probably would get the best of baby and me at AX...Since she is bone stock. I've thought about doing some serious AX, but just can't see tearing up a good original 73' 2.0 survivor. I think her destiny is to take some fun runs in the Washington, Idaho, and Montana mountains. We have some incredible scenic switchbacks in this area that are just CRYING out for 914s to give them a try.
I wouldn't mind putting putting in a few laps at the track though...just to have a legal place to get her up to 100 MPH, and then throw her into some turns. That would be some serious fun. I see your a PNW guy, so maybe I'll get to meet you at the WCR if my refurbish goes as planned.
Posted by: kg6dxn Jan 21 2013, 12:44 PM
Looks like I'm out
My nephew is in a program for at risk youth sponsored by the California National Guard. I (ex-Marine) am his mentor. He graduates on June 14 @10am in San Luis Obispo. Smack dab in the middle of WCR. As much as I want to be there, family comes first.
I have considered all options but it doesn't make sense to race on Friday afternoon to Oregon just to make the end of WCR. There are no airports (with a flight) within 1.5 hours of each location. 
I am cancelling my reservation in OR and booking one in SLO. My new goal is to have the car running for a trip to SLO. Then a nice ride up the coast with my wife.
See you guys next year!

The idea would be to have the doc help assemble a few transmissions over the course of a few days. It would require dissassembly cand cleaning prior. The doc would work with those that wanted to do this prior via the internet, and could assess the required parts prior to the even to bring along. So basically just assembly would occur at the event.
Thoughts?

:worship:java script:add_smilie(":worship:","smid_36")It take some real effort to be "That Girl/Guy" so she should be able to avoid it, if that is truly what she wants.

Track day info:
ORP has graciously added the WCR weekend to the ORP club schedule. All three days (Friday - Sunday) are available to those who want lots of track time.
Single Track day cost (including catered lunch) $400.00
The attached pdf explains more regarding the cost. If you are "local" and plan to do more track days, part of the fee can be credited to your membership and the cost of each subsequent day goes down.
Further, as the sponsoring member of the ORP Club, I am credited an amount for every person who joins. If you join, I will have that amount additionally credited to your account (rather than mine) to help defray some the of the cost of membership.
Again, if you are local (seattle, PDX, Etc.) and want access to lots o' track days, this is a great way to get track days!

Just finishing up the artwork for the poster, working on the shirt design with the art guy next. 
Extra shirts should be 10 or 15 bucks depending on volume, long / short sleeve etc. Not set up to print them myself yet, 
otherwise I would do it, so we are at the mercy of a "professional" shirt print company. 
However I will get some extras done and have them at the rally. Patches, extra posters maybe some stickers and other swag should be available then too!!!!

I've got Mike on getting these posters together and we'll be sending these out to a few local shops and dealers to help pump the effort. We have registered the website WCR2013.info that I need to build and poster will reference the site. I want to pump the event for the VW and Porsce community to maybe draw in a few new members.
A little cross promotion will not hurt.
More to follow-

I'm new to the world, I might be interested in coming down as I have to be in Vancouver anyways June 16th to cheer on my then 14 year old son on his 1st full marathon.
Posted by: jsconst May 7 2013, 07:41 PM
However I will get some extras done and have them at the rally. Patches, extra posters maybe some stickers and other swag should be available then too!!!!
[
Sounds great! Since my wife can't go I'm bringing my dog Laney. She could sure use a new shirt too, any chance.
All paid up and got the hotel reserved, see you there.
Thanks,
Jeff

I will be there driving my jeep and towing my BBQ pit (the same one that was at WCR 2011 in Medford, Oregon) Unless we don't need it?
I will also be bringing a few things to give away from this place! The owner donated Three (3) cases of beer (22oz bottles) and some beer glasses! (just like in Medford)
Bare Island Blonde Ale
Named for the scrappy Bare Island in the middle of Upper Klamath Lake, this blonde ale is sure to please any hard worker. It has the strength of a microbrew, yet stays on the lighter side. Its crisp flavor, a characteristic of a Vanguard Hops ale, is smooth and refreshing after a long day on the job. So kick back, relax and enjoy. This beer choice will hold up for the long run. Available in 22 oz. bottles or draft. (2011 Award Winner)
4.3% ABV 20 IBU’S
Glasses from the Brewery
Crystal Springs IPA
Like the sparkling and impressive Crystal Springs we find in the Klamath Basin, this ale steps away from the crowd, to a place where clarity comes naturally. Our India Pale ale is rich with complexity but the taste is simply awesome. Citrus and pine hop flavors dominate the aroma of this Northwest India Pale Ale while allowing malt flavors to linger in the background. Indulge yourself; you won’t be disappointed. Available in 22 oz. bottles or draft.
(7.1 % ABV 70 IBU’S) 2012 Award Winner
Drop Dead Red
Inspired by the gorgeous redhead whose temper was as reknown as her beauty… or so the story goes. This palette pleasing ale will appeal to your sultry side. Its flavors find a balance between toasty and nutty, while the roasted malts impart the deep red hue. Available in 22 oz. bottles or draft.
(5.9% ABV 52 IBU’S) 2011 Award Winner
Vanilla Porter
Vanilla dominates the flavor of this robust porter while chocolate and coffee flavors linger in the background. Brewed with a blend of vanilla beans, this delicious porter is sure to please even the most discerning beer connoisseur. You don’t need an excuse like pouring rain or drifting snow to come inside for this porter. Simply take a taste, and you’ll find yourself enjoying one of life’s finer creations, regardless of what mother nature hands you. Available in 22 oz. bottles or draft.
(6.7% ABV 40 IBU’s) 2012 Award Winner

Yup, they lost all their reservations. Just called to re-reserve.
Posted by: mstein95 May 29 2013, 11:36 AM
I have a hard time believing that Shilo Inn doesn't have some kind of redundancy in there IT. It would be really bad for business to lose reservations.
With that said - I will check my confirmation # at their website.
Posted by: NORD May 29 2013, 11:37 AM
This is TRUE, They lost all their records!!!!!!
I just had to rebook my room for the weekend. Do call and confirm your reservations
If you are a Vetran, book as a vet and get room for $89 a night, then just bring
Any kind of ID to prove it.
Posted by: mstein95 May 29 2013, 11:44 AM
Just checked my reservation on-line - still there.
Posted by: TC 914-8 May 29 2013, 12:00 PM

Yes they said only the ones booked over the phone or at the hotel were lost. On line reservations should be OK
Posted by: Mikey914 May 29 2013, 12:04 PM
Might want to make a call..sorry guys. I figured they would be a little more organized as this is a larger locally owned chain.

the guy just told me the computer crashed and lost a lot of data. They had to take all my information again. We have a Shilo Inn down here.
Posted by: Rocky May 29 2013, 04:35 PM
Thanks for the heads-up! They did indeed lose my reservation. All good now!

Proposed Bay Area caravan route:
- Leaving Wednesday, June 12th
- Driving up 101 north along the coast to Bandon, OR and stay overnight. Estimated driving time: 9 hours.
- There's a nice motel at the beach in Bandon that we stayed at on our way to the WCR in Seattle.
- Leave Bandon early on Thursday morning, continue north on 101 and cut over to Portland using 18.
- Pass through Portland and drive east on 30 to The Dalles. Estimated driving time: 7:30 hours.
- Going back home is either the reverse (preferred) or if we're in a hurry, we can just take 5 all the way down.
Sooooo is this caravan going to happen? Haven't read anymore about it....unless I missed it.
If so where and when does it leave from, I'm ready.

Just tried to book a room at the Shilo Inn...they're booked of course! Something about a wild bunch of car nuts that weekend!
I can only make it for Friday evening and Saturday morning so I only needed a room for the night. I have parties on Saturday in Eugene and graduations in Portland on Sunday.
Then my wife says Hotels.com has a room available there for $79!! I say! I book it just waiting for it to tell me it's not available... Well, I just got a confirmation email saying its booked,
See you all Friday!!!! Check Hotels.com if your late to the party like me. $86 total,
Gotta love a wife like mine!

Nice work!
Unfortunatly this was the first attempt at making patches and had a problem with getting all the colors to line up correctly, so they won't be there.
But the good news is you can buy these on evil-bay from Thailand for 5 bucks all day. The other good news is my cuz spent the extra free time making something really cool for the poker run / raffle prize, and the winner will promptly be beaten or stabbed or shot by all the jealous loosers that didn't get it. It is being (mostly) hand-made right here in Oregon. (sorry no pics, it is a suprise)
Posted by: retrotech Jun 9 2013, 09:15 PM
There is a good local event happening this Sat. The flyer below gives you the info. Sat may be a track day. But for any that want to cruise in the area, this would be fun, and the local car guys would love it.
Hope to see you there,

on the way home monday i may stop at carson hotsprings (hotel st martin) in carson for a HOT! geothermal water soak in a 6ft tub. when you're done with the soak, about as long as you want if there's no one else waiting for a tub, you lay on a comfy cot while wrapped in a sheet and blanket with only your face exposed. while soaking you drink the hot eggy tasting water. you sweat like crazy. shower up and you feel like a new man. your crap stench for the next 2 days is unbelievable but your digestive tract is well cleaned. you up for a try jim?
