914world.com SOUTH EAST CLASSIC The 914world.com South East Classic “Heritage of the South” will be held on September 8th and 9th of 2006. The event will take place in the beautiful town of Helen, Georgia. This year we are planning to have around thirty cars, and around 45-50 people attending. This will be the southern 914 event to attend. We are expecting to have a lot of fun, with the combination of a rally through the mountains of GA, NC, and TN while driving through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, driving the Tail of the Dragon (www.tailofthedragon.com) , and touring Jake Raby’s Aircooled Technology. We have many sponsors for our event, including: Camp 914, Appearance and Performance, Series 9, team NARP racing, EvilWerks,Engman, No Bad Days Graphics, Callicott Motorsports, and Hennessy Porsche. The Registration fee will be $45.00, which will pay for one main entrant, and one co-entrant. The registration fee will include two event T-shirts, two boxed lunches for Saturdays rally, one goodie bag, and one official license plate. Any money left will be donated to the local Ronald McDonald house. The plan for Friday the 8th is to meet at Andretti Karting Facility (www.andrettikarting.com) , and to have a swap meet in the parking lot, starting at 2:30 PM. Departure for Helen will be at 5:30PM. The host hotel will be the Comfort Inn, just outside of Helen. The group rate is $79.99 per night not including tax. Their phone number is (706) 878-8000. Make sure you tell them that you are with the 914club. We plan for this to be an annual event, and there is already much talk of SEC 07. A schedule of events will be posted as soon as the Rally route is finished. The SEC planning crew would like to formally invite everyone to come and share the fun with us. CUT OFF DATE FOR REGISTRAION IS THE 19th OF AUGUST. Thank you, The SEC Planning Crew |

Paul (URY), will you join me in organizing this event? PM me about this if you get the chance. Thanks , Barry (IMG:style_emoticons/default/locust.gif) Sure. Let's see what we get for reponses and maybe do a low key event this fall and build from there. The WCC wasn't built in a day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

lol, I am not that close. I am like right on the FL line. It is about two hours for me, but I will be staying in Atlanta for the next two weeks (my grandfather is dieing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) ) so I may be able to scout out a hotel that we could get a discount at..and some fun roads. NAMES NAMES NAMES! help out. Even if you are not attending please try to help with a catchy name.

Let's drive that Devils Playground (isn't that the name of it) the one where all the rice bikes play. Isn't not far from Jake's.
BTW I would not assume we can go by Jakes. But we could ask. |

914 Rebel Rally sounds pretty good, but some people are a little touchy about the term rebel... and the rebel flag...and everything that says rebel...some people think it stands for racism...Just uneducated idiots who think they know everything...

Yeah, he said he doesn't like that many visitors, and I think he kind of got ran off. I have heard of the Devil's Platground but I never thought of it. Sounds like a great road. Anybody have any more details about it. I think that would be a great place to rally. We could make a great big loop, and end at somewhere cool...like a Brewery like at WCC, or an auto museum.........or Auto Atlanta (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) |

Gosh, all 2 on this post. :PERMAGRIN: Joe The B and P classic is pretty catchy... When someone else organizes it, we could just change the meaning to the "The Beer and Party classis" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) |

"NARP Rally of the South" this has a nice ring. Here is the road I thought you were talking about,but it`s not. It`s too far away.
