Who is planning to attend the Reunion Friday March 6th and or the Cars and Coffee Saturday the 7th? Sign up for the C&C is now and Werks sign up is opening in the next couple weeks. I’m thinking about planning a drive down to the Brumos museum Saturday after C&C for any teeners interested. I’m gauging interest.

Do you know where the Brumos museum is being built? I thought it was around Mayo but couldn't find where.
Posted by: stevegm Dec 3 2019, 08:31 PM
I’m in.

I plan to make the trip.

I applied early and accepted for the C&C, Steve was waitlisted for C& C but cancelations happen so hope you get in but if not still come but parking is crazy tis all over the place along the roads etc. For Werks on Friday, pay for the Porsche Coral parking if not being judged, its worth it, they will put all the 914's together - last year there were 4-5 showing/judging and only 3 of us in the Coral, would be great to have 20 or more there!!! I plan on trying to get in for the judging so we'll see, its not open yet.....

I've got lodgings secured and plan on bringing the 914 in one way or another.

I might be sleeping in my car, even back a few weeks ago when I got accepted for the C&C all hotels were booked up .... and the AirBNB as well.... its not looking good for a hotel room. ..... might have to be a ways out and drive in unfortunately

Try Jacksonville, near the airport, for lower priced but name brand hotels. Plus, the food is less expensive as well. I've been staying by the airport for all the Amelia Island concours and werks events. Nice drive into Amelia (about 30 minutes).

That is the address of the old building behind the old dealership building.
They have to move from there because the dealership was sold.

Missed racing with HSR at Daytona and Sebring due to restoration delays. We are bringing this bad boy. Car is painted in Porsche Exclusive Gold, as found on limited edition Turbo S. I wasn't a fan of Gold ever in my life, but after seeing the Richard Childress Gold cars at the Daytona 500, celebrating his 50th anniversary, I was hooked. Pretty ironic it's the 914's 50th anniversary celebration at Werks Reunion.

Registration is open. I had debated, but, I guess it is a bit of a 50th anniversary of the 914 event. So that settled it for me.
EDIT: I went back in and added judging. We will see how this goes.

got it done, but I had to go in thru logging into PCA site not just generic, that would make me wait until 3pm, after logging in and then clicking on the link it took me directly to the motorsportreg.com site and completed it fast, since I have an account with them already from last year. - so if you are having an issue and you are a PCA member go that way and you should be able to get done now. - I was #18 I think in the judging category and there were about 20 so far in the Coral registration .
good luck and see ya'all there

Probably checked the "see who else is attending" link right after registering - I noticed that I registered as the third 914 attending.

Hey DrPhil,
Did you see this:
"Werks Reunion was created by the Porsche Club of America as an event to celebrate both the Porsche marque as well as the camaraderie of being an enthusiast. This is not a contest of who has removed dust from the deepest crevices in their Porsche but rather a judged show that rewards a Porsche that has been lovingly maintained and presents itself well on the field. Our judges do not use Porsche Parade Concours score sheets but rather rank the cars according to certain attributes discussed prior to judging. For those who do not wish to have their cars judged, you may display in the model-specific corrals or if the organizers see fit, on the judged field itself. There are no score sheets returned or protest committees. This is a casual gathering of Porsche enthusiasts focused on having fun rather than solely competition."
Sounds like you can relax and have some fun.
Posted by: BENBRO02 Dec 11 2019, 05:10 PM
I signed up for the corral. It's only 679 miles each way, what could go wrong?

Yes I did and knew that from being there at the coral last year. I think it’s great, it’s not concourse judging and it’s not a people’s choice, it’s something in between. Of course I want to present my car the best I can but a spec of dirt or dust is not what they look at. I’m there to have fun enjoy talking to other porsche owners and builders and get ideas etc. there will be some sweet cars there I am sure- I can share a couple pictures of several nice 914’s last year.

I’m counting on it. Mine is anything but concours.

Wondering if it will feature the 914 on it

I did also but didn't go for the t-shirt
Posted by: poorsche914 Dec 11 2019, 08:40 PM
The grill badge will have the Werks logo with Amelia Island and year. It won’t include 914. The posters and t-shirts will have artwork of 914s on them.

OK, so, I deleted the badge and added the shirt
Posted by: MJHanna Dec 12 2019, 08:13 PM
I think I'll pass on the shirts High quality polo style shirt with embroidered Werks Reunion Amelia Island logo and "2017" 
designation. Got signed up for the judged group, It's only 1050 mile one way to get there shorter than going to rennsport,

I did too, even without the 914 on the badge, still a collectible item to have I think. I am signed up for Judging, shirt, badge, etc and am in the C&C Saturday.

I was at the first one a couple years ago when they celebrated the Boxster. Very nice event with lots to see.
Many participants (including me) stayed in Brunswick, GA. Much less expensive and, IIRC, less than an hour drive to the event.

I think it was Kingsbay I stayed last year in Ga and was like $70 a night and really not bad. might do that again this year, if I cant find something closer, just sucks to be so far away being I have to clean and prep. oh well it is what it is.

Some of us will be meeting up Friday and Saturday mornings to ride in together very close to Holiday Inn Express & Suites Jacksonville - Blount Island. It’s a very nice 30 minute drive in from there. Got to watch the sun rise over the ocean as we drove in last year.

That might be a quicker drive than from the north side in, with construction last year it took me 45 minutes to go 20 miles

Finally secured a hotel room for the weekend but I am out on the 295 beltway, at the hwy105 /295 intersection. Will have to be driving in from there on Friday and Saturday.
See ya’ll there.

Posted by: jdamiano Jan 19 2020, 02:44 PM
A bunch of us will be meeting up at the Gate gas station at 2-95 and Heckscher Dr early for the drive in. I know at least one other judged 914 will be in the group. I will post the details on 914World when we finalize the time. Looking forward to it!!

You should make the drive in the morning using 105 (Heckscher Dr.).
Great road.

Steve see my post above - there are still rooms at this hotel- a few locals and others cruising in in the morning from there so grab a room at that Holiday inn now.

I plan to drive down Thursday to attend Friday's Werks Reunion and Saturday's Cars & Coffee.
Anything else being planned by the local 914 guys?
Anything happening Saturday afternoon or evening?
My wife is joining me (she hasn't ridden in a 914 for YEARS and has agreed to travel several hours each way in one 
) She'll be mostly hanging out at the beach while in Florida and we plan on spending a night at Hilton Head. If nothing happening later on Saturday, will head to HHI then. Otherwise, will leave Sunday.
Thanks!
