Well, my "quick 6" made it to Canada and back with only one small failure, the voltage regualtor. I ran on the battery the entire drive home with traffice some 5 hours. I am completely sold on Optima batteries now! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) As if I wasn't before. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Remember this 914 was a 914 1.7 just 2 weeks before this trip. I only spent 2 weeks converting this to a 914-6 2.2. The first pic is of my two most favorite things, my wife and my 914 in that order the morning of the 20th.

I have noticed over the past few years less 914's seem to attend. I am not sure if people are keeping them in garages or they are loosing there place on the road? Either way, I would have loved to see more 914's.

this the first i've really heard of the event, and with 130+ cars entered, i bet registration closed a long time ago...

i spent 2 wks in Whistler a couple of years ago and had a ball; great place!

so next year, when the event registration opens, LET US KNOW! post a note!

i'm not trying to unload on you but this is the 3rd of 4th time THIS WEEK i've heard of an event report where someone said "great event, all the event regulars had a ball, wish there were new people" for an event or gathering that had (as near as i can tell) very little advance publicity outside the group of people who've attended in the past.

okay - so Whistler's pretty far for me and i probably wasn't going to be a contender for attending THIS event THIS year. but if you can create interest in an event, people will look forward to attending some of these events Some Day.

(BTW - pretty car!)
