Wanted to see this event continue to occur. What's the status? I know we have come COVID issues, but perhaps a little later in the year most will be behind us???

I'd like to at least help out.

Personally, the roads we drove in the Petaluma area were great drives. We could move a bit south to the Bay Area but you run into bad traffic 7 days per week typically. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Yep, at the closing of WCR 2020, Robert @BuddyV mentioned San Luis and that we (Robert, @MarkHoward and me) would be willing to coordinate again. I can't speak for them as we've not talked about it since, but I'd be willing to help. I can do awards, planning, leg work, etc.

Note that zero effort has been put into looking at hotels, costs, drives, etc. so...

That said, if others are chomping to be in charge and run the 2021 show, just say so. Either way, I'll help, if needed.

And this time, hopefully, I'll have my car there, in full participation mode. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Yes, great back roads, PCH, breweries and wineries and usually good weather. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I'm going to say that even with the "challenges" of 2020 the event was great.
Any improvement in social spacing and everything else this will be fantastic-er

I'm thinking late July as that should see a better chance of all this being a little more in the rear view mirror. Just want to see it come together and these things typically take some planning.

Count me in where ever it is.

I even have a running drivable 914, it still needs some work but it will be ready.

My wife and I both went to Cal Poly SLO, so it is one of the places I can talk my wife into going.

LOVE this topic!

We managed a great WCR this past year in November..... and I think July 2021 is too soon. I am on the board for a local hospital, and we "Might" have half of our population vaccinated by then. Not good enough, IMHO.

The driving is social distanced.... but otherwise, it's tough to stay safe. Not impossible,,,, but tough.

Maybe again in November?

A. It gives more time for vaccinations
B. Cooler than July , and no one except maybe JamesJ has AC (Yes, I'm jealous)
C. SLO area is GORGEOUS! - my alma mater (spelling??).... and we have a 2020 attendee that lives local... I will reach out
D. SLO is HOTTTTTT in July. Too Hot..... 100+ degree hot.
E. Maybe we can manage something special, like a camping location instead of motel?

And let's face it.... most of us NEED that long to get our cars ready.

That said, a few of us Northern California members are certainly willing to help coordinate whatever the group decides.

Lastly.... if SLO doesn't work out for some reason, and no one is interested in hosting in Southern Cal (or anyone else), we would be happy to host again in Northern California..... but would rather share the love south of us this year.

I am vaccinated. I suppose when I look at it through that lens, I forget that many of you aren’t. Something to consider...

Tell me this doesn't feel good to discuss this.

That's why I made that video for the northeast event. It's something to look forward to, something to count down to on your calendar. We need it.

Hey Robert,
You and Chris and Mark set the bar really high last November and it was a great experience. I agree with you...waiting until next Fall might help out for all of the reasons you mentioned.
I may have A/C, but your car is lighter than mine and did I hear that it is getting even lighter?
Count me in for WCR 2021!
