I was wondering who's going to the Portland Parade Autocross.
More impotrantly, what manner of 914's will be represented in what classes?
(Read: Who's going to be running against who?)

Linda and I are running in I01L and I01M resprectively.

Anyone else?

Both Pamela and I will be running the 3.2. Dave Hunt and his kid, JP Stein and Brit will be running JP's car. I think we are in Mod of some sort or other. Don't know of anyone else. We are running a post Parade a/x on Saturday the 12th. Preference is given to Prade registrants. If interested, www.driverregistration.com has the registration concession.

We are running the vintage races a/x this coming weekend with the WCC event here in Portland, along with several other events for the 914 enthusiast.

914's rule!

Steve Nieslony will be there in M1, Eric fry in M4,
Tom Provasi in M5.....the usual local suspects in M4

BTW, I think (hope) they cut off AX entries at 434 (auuuuuggggh).
General entries were cut off (I heard today) at 998......good grief!!

A quick count shows 37 914s entered.
You have one competitor in IO1...a tail dragger.
Youe wife has a trophy locked......no one else in IO1L

Sad to say this "suspect" is withdrawing from M04. Car is sold.
JP and Gary's chances for a trophy just went way up!

(looks fast anyway)

Thanks for the invite on Saturday, but we have our AX then as well.
If anyone feels like getting up real early and driving north to Bremerton, WA you're welcome to join us at Bremerton Raceway.

JP--you seem to have the intel on Parade AX. I got a peek at I01 and that tail-dragger is an '86 Carrera? Unless he's backdated to 912 or 356 power, he's in the wrong class.
Since there are only Linda and I in I01 doesn't that mean we'll get bumped into I02? Can you tell us what we might be up against there? Some ITS 944's perhaps?

Can us regular folk find this info somewhere?

This is the Parade....everybody gets a trophy.
AFAIK, at Parade they don't bump classes like SCCA does.

IO2= 3 944s

Maybe

Britain:
You gotta remember, 3 runs only. Tough on a cone killer

There are some damn fine drivers in M4...life is gonna be hard.

Posted by: drgchapman Jul 2 2006, 10:48 PM

So I just looked it up...........I'm m4 as well. So who's who in m4.........besides Brit?

Posted by: J P Stein Jul 2 2006, 10:56 PM

M4 guys I know that are damn fast:
Doug Skinner-911
Leeds Gulick-914 Greg Fordahl drives this car at the Nationals
Eric Fry-914
Randy Wells-911

Posted by: drgchapman Jul 2 2006, 11:11 PM

Didn't see you or Brit in m4 class...........WTF?

Posted by: J P Stein Jul 2 2006, 11:30 PM

It's from April. Hopefully it has been updated.
Wiseass Chuck put me in SO3L.

Unfortuniately, we backed out. Stay tuned details at 11:00

With that list, plus Ricky #4, Gary and Britain, probably good that I got the hell out of that contest!

How do U know if you are in the AX??

I thought we had a AX event with the WCC??

Hey DaveH, if you aren't gonna AX let me take your spot....otherwise there is no reason to drag tires all the way down there.

To get into the Parade AX, you gotta check the block on your application.

We do have an AX at WCC. Read the update ob the WCC website. I'm lookin' for a few good volunteers.....even Geoff would do:D

We can prolly get somethin' going if you want to take Dave's spot.....after Dave explains exactly why he ain't doin' it

....that's a joke. If it's sumthin' serious & none of my biddness, that's OK.

I already withdrew via official channels from Parade. (Not really sure what that is). Got half my money back. Retired with mechanical issues.

Posted by: Bleyseng Jul 4 2006, 09:28 AM

I swear I checked the box but I didn't keep a copy of the entry form....

Hmmm, where is this WCC site to see whats updated. I just get the registration form.
