Well this was unexpected... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
I got a call the other day inquiring whether I'd be interested in showing my 914R car at Rennsport VI in a special new 'outlaw' display within the paddock, with around 20 total cars. This is an official Porsche Factory/RRVI Committee curated collection, not the PCA corral... Apparently it will be the only 914 in this display, and will not be far from the priceless museum and private collector stuff also to be there. Wow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) It's not 100% official yet and I have some work to do to get the car ready, but I thought I'd share this super cool news with my 914world family. |
