914 West Coast Classic 2004 Poll

Arrangements for the biggest West Coast 914 Porsche event of 2004 are taking shape. Before final arrangements can be made, please help the planning committee with your input. Your vote above indicates your date preference, so don’t vote if you cannot attend, or don’t think you can attend. This is only an informal poll to better ascertain your preferences, it is not a commitment to attend.

Tentative Event Schedule

Having a stand-alone 914-only event appears to be beyond our reach this year, so we propose to augment certain events planned by other San Francisco Bay Area P-car groups. This way, we will enhance their events and contribute to our own success at the same time. We currently plan to start our event on a Friday with a 9:14 Breakfast and then enjoy a twisty-road tour through the mountains to the scenic Monterey Peninsula, likely staying the night in Monterey. Saturday we will Autocross, and there is a good likelihood that it will be our own dedicated 914-only event. On Sunday we would attend a Porsche-only Concours and swapmeet as a group, and finish up the weekend with a farewell, catered, 914-only, BBQ-style picnic en masse. The cost will be minimal, only to cover expenses, and will occur by prepaid registration.

There are only 2 weekends this year that this can happen, June 4-6 and July 30-August 1, 2004.

Would you be a paid attendee for this event, and if so, which dates work better for you? Final announcements, registration and other information will be available soon, stay tuned.

Please help us plan by telling us your date preference:

FWIW, I just did a quick check on various discount hotel web sites comparing the two dates and rooms in Monterey are quite a bit cheaper on June 4-6th. That problably means that something else is happening down there on the weekend in August.

Thanks

Is the event still gonna be a full week?
I know the focus will be on the weekend, but IIRC there were plans to start on monday/tuesday for the "hardcore" teeners...

Either way, July is a PITA-month for me (stuck at the office), so I won't be able to catch a plane any earlier than friday 29th
That would mean I'd miss part of it and/or be jet-lagged for the rest of the event (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

The june dates would be MUCH better for me.

cheers,

Jeroen

Given some lead time we can certainly plan some informal events either before or after. Golf comes to mind, hanging out, relaxing is a real treat, even tourista stuff. Let's get the core event together and I'm sure there will be some extra stuff that will shake out. Heck I'd like to see Brad's shop, I'd could even be talked into Hooter's (Brad if you read this I'm not the old puritan you must think I am). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bs.gif)

Doesn't matter... It's gonna be a full week event for me one way or the other (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif)
Either way, I'll let the others decide and I'll just tag along (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Hmm, well I'll be up there on the week of the 9th of august through the 15th for the Monterey Historic Races. So I don't think I would want to drive up 2 weekends in a row.. so I guess I'll vote for June.

I voted for June as later in the summer is when everyone goes on vacation. (thats why flights cost more Jeroen).
PLUS in June there is more daylight and we can play outdoors more (fixing our cars).

I'll say 30-1 because in june month that date rests on two auto x's. I would like to go to the auto x's but I could go either way..

I voted 30-1st

I have no real preference as far as scheduling goes. But I think the weather will be better july/aug, so I picked that. But I could go either dates. Whatever's easiest for the planners, I say.

In theory I like a later date. Of the 52 weekends in the year you picked the only one where I have a major conflict. July 30 - Aug 1 is the VARA 2nd Annual Golden State Classic at the California Speedway Long Course in Fontana. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Please don't make me pick only one. I will gladly give up a race weekend at Buttonwillow or Willow Springs. It was a month before this event last year that I blew my motor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) I don't want to miss it again.

VOTE FOR JUNE 4-6
(or vote for July/Aug) but VOTE !!!

If I still lived in Chicago and the event was being held there... I would offer to you the Chicago politicians behind the scenes comments....
