Hmm, can I make South Bay breakfast and the already planned Sac lunch in the same day?

Posted by: neo914-6 Feb 8 2006, 10:59 PM

San Jose to Sacto airport...

Posted by: Midtowner Feb 8 2006, 11:23 PM

I'm in - without my Starbuck's.

Posted by: Porcharu Feb 8 2006, 11:44 PM

I'm in. No 914 this time around.

Posted by: jkeyzer Feb 8 2006, 11:45 PM

I'm out this time. I'll be in Austin, Tejas.

Posted by: Carl Feb 9 2006, 12:11 AM

I think Meredith and I'll be in for this one but will have to check with her to be sure.

I'm in, but my 914 is currently dismantled.
Greg, perhaps i could catch a ride with you.

Posted by: Dave_Darling Feb 9 2006, 10:48 PM

Unless I have some major revisions of plan, I won't be able to make it to this one.

1) Hellhole rust repair via McMark.
2) Engine bay paint.
3) Engine cleanup and seal freshening.
4) SSI exhaust upgrade.
5) Jackstand performance testing.

Marty,

Sure, let's do it. I am praying for sunshine - I'd much rather drive to Santa Clara in the teener. With the cage and cross member behind pass seat the legroom is a bit tight. But I guarantee a fun ride to IHOP !

I'd like to make it to this one (my first) and meet y'all- but need to get my interior back together though.

Posted by: Jenny Feb 10 2006, 11:48 AM

You don't need no stinkin' interior.

All you need... Seat, seatbelt, steering wheel and shifter. You're set!

Jen

Posted by: lapuwali Feb 10 2006, 12:32 PM

You don't even need a 914 to show up. Lots of people show up in something else. I've only been to 2 or 3 of these things WITH my 914.

Posted by: McMark Feb 10 2006, 12:48 PM

We can bring our 914s?

I've never brought a 914 to one of these things.

Geez Brent, when you talk about the "boys" and I''m looking at your avatar and my mind wanders...to "the girls"....

Posted by: Maine914 Feb 10 2006, 11:18 PM

Here in Maine, the windchill tonight is well below zero, so my teener is bedded down until May [April, if I'm lucky].
I may be in Los Gatos on the 25th, and would like to try to make it to the breakfast if you don't mind my crashing it. [I don't think I've ever been in a room with more than one other 914 owner.]
Not knowing the area, what's the best way to get there other than the direct route I can see from the maps?
Thanks.

From Las Gatos, the easiest way is probably to take Hwy 17 to Camden Ave. turn left and follow Camden (turns into San Tomas espressway) until you reach Stevens Creek - make a left and IHOP is about 2 miles on the right side.

Posted by: Jenny Feb 12 2006, 04:57 PM

17 to 280 to lawrence Expressway might be quicker, unless you want to stay with surface streets.

Where in los gatos will you be staying at?

Maine 914:
Google maps come in handy! IHOP is the place with the blue awing near the intersection indicated.

Steve,

My car is living in Carmel so I don't I'll have it for this breafast meet.

But in the summer for sure!

Posted by: stevesc_us Feb 16 2006, 01:41 PM

Olav,

Too bad, I was really looking forward to seeing it. Oh well hopefully you can bring it down this summer. Maybe Carl will show with his blue six. Does he live in the Bay Area?

Steve

Posted by: Jenny Feb 16 2006, 01:45 PM

Yes, Carl is in SJ, and he'll be coming to breakfast with Mer. I think Carl's the only guy who consistently drives his 914 to breakfast meetings.

Posted by: GTeener Feb 16 2006, 05:32 PM

I might be able to make it on the late side (depends on water polo practice schedule), but sans 914

Called Harvey about my wheels and found out they are in process though

And I have my new LE valence waiting in the garage.

Posted by: lapuwali Feb 16 2006, 05:47 PM

Way things are going, I'll be bringing the 912 again. 914 isn't on the schedule until after the FIAT is done, and the FIAT is at least three weekends away from being useful again. The scooter won't go faster than 35mph, so taking it all the way to Santa Clara would be a major trip. The type 3, well, is a type 3.

Looking ahead, I'm very likely to be out of town for both the March and April breakfast days, so someone else will need to volunteer to pick a venue and call the place to warn them they're about to be invaded by a large block of people who'll leave oil puddles in their parking lot...

I'd take a ride if someone was taking a 914, but totally happy to pick you (lapuwali) up on the way. We could also convoy (bundle up?) from san mateo/foster city.

My welder crapped out last night - so I don't think I'm going to have the 914 running - so would you prefer the Miata (0-60 in 7.9sec) or the turbo wagon (0-60 in 5.4sec)??

Of course - if I do get the 914 running tonight - I'll be bringing that - complete with it's new megasquirt II.

Bundle up...? Andy, does the car have a "bundling board" now?

Posted by: ChrisNPDrider Feb 24 2006, 03:42 PM

One of these days....I WILL GO TO A 914club breakfast.

BUT this weekend I might not even have the 914, and if I did I need to finish up soooo much around the house this weekend it would be hard to squeeze the trip into my busy day. Not much time after I sleep in to 11am


Unitl then I'll be lurking and looking at all the photos, finishing the rustoration, and FINALLY taking some pictures and starting a blog.

You're letting life pass you by. Get yer arse out of bed. You could be back home by noon.

If you guys have that much early morning get up & go you leave right after breakfast and join us for lunch. (Mcmark?)

Some pics of the breakfast.

As usual it was a lot of fun shooting the sh*t with everyone and seeing all the cool cars in various states of development.

Thanks Jim for the spring tool, I'll bring it back I promise.

I would have, but I had a car to sell, and a new car coming into the shop. Lots going on today. But as I rolled into Napa at 1 pm I thought about the fact that if I didn't have other commitments I would have just kept on going north and caught the tail end of the Sacto shin-dig.

But on the plus side, Tom (carreraguy) let me drive his VW R32. That's a friggin' awesome car. Super tight in the corners and flat, flat torque curve. Zooooooom!

Cool stuff... howd it sound?

Posted by: Dr. Roger Feb 25 2006, 06:15 PM

How's the CHP in your area?

Posted by: Brent Feb 25 2006, 08:58 PM

Thanks to Dr. Roger, Andyrew and I will benefit from some early spring cleaning. Andrew was working today, so I will drop off his door prizes next weekend on the way to work on my cars.

Neo914-6, if you need some help on your monster Sunday, let me know. Im still in the area.

Notyers, your V6 has inspired me to stay away from the true monsters...for now. Your car sounded truly beefy, yet still german. Schweet.

No troubles as of yet, but Im not a troublemaker...

They look at me in the 914 or the race car, but they dont do anything....

Sometimes im tempted to shut off the engine in the 914 when Im gona pass them

Brent called me, Next week he's gona come over..

I had work today..

Posted by: Maine914 Feb 27 2006, 01:52 PM

Thanks for letting me crash your breakfast. For someone who has not seen more than two 914s in the same place at the same time, this was great.
When I arrived back in Maine it was nine degrees with the wind blowing. Enjoy your weather.
Take care.

Thanks. I was lucky to have one kid who's interested in 914's. The other two can't figure out what's the big deal. To them a car is just a tool of conveyance.

For Mer it's

We enjoyed your presence....any time. We like to get the perspective of out of area 914 enthusiasts....sorry you were welcomed back "down East" so rudely....Jim
