I see Andy is already registered for full concours. Anyone else going?
http://www.motorsportreg.com/index.cfm/eve...3D#.VWerJflVhBc Although it's not really a concours car (I drive it a lot now! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ), I was thinking about entering my green 914-6 in the concours. It would push me to finish up the last few small things... -Steve |

I'll be there judging too, but without the 914 since no real work done yet - let alone ready to show! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
... I'll probably have the now resto'd/refurb'ed 88 Westy there though! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) To those on the fence, we usually get a bunch of rare Porsches there in both display & entered, plus a number of great sponsors/vendors with lotsa goodies! Last year Both Circle & Walter's Porsche had the new Macans there - 4 or 5 in all! Very nice Porsche car posing as a CUV! We also may get that 918 Weissach that was at the Temecula Z8 CdE in January, since the owner sad he may come up from Carlsbad for it! Temecula had an excellent 914 turn-out & everybody from the PCA-taildragger club & others commented on it! So lets have a great turnout of 914s again, & display isn't that expensive considering the local parking situation. If you folks are interested - I can check with the Chair to see if they can set aside a display area specifically for the 914s - if someone here is willing to get there early enough & "babysit" the 914/914world area to guide folks in & keep others out?? That person needs to be someone not entered & not judging, cuz that will take all their time. Please email me if there is interest here & a volunteer "914 Wrangler" so I can contact the Chair for this aspect. Plantman - GO!! It's your SON's Eagle Scout project - not yours, & he needs to do it himself! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Mike/Cuda - you should enter your blue 914 in the concours!! Others please enter too! ...& any of your P-cars will do! Do it for fun or more serious competition as suits your style. FYI - make it easy on yourself by just doing the Wash-&-Shine div. (interior & exterior only is judged), which is the best for folks daily driving their 914s. The next easiest divisions are Street & Preservation (min 75% original) - where ext/int/engine/storage (trunks or open) are judged - so more to clean, or Ubergang (for newer P-cars where engine is not judged due to lack of access). Full Concours is hardest since it adds undercarriage - or the underside of the cars are judged - 1/2 with engine & 1/2 without engine - so 6 judges per team there for all 6 judged areas! This is best for fresh restos & garage queens - or masochists who want to flog themselves! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) SoCal Andy is doing Full Concours now to get his 914-6 "finished" as a top car, so his is a fresh resto which he drives, & then is a masochist to get ready! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) There are a few other Full Concours entrants you drive their cars daily or at least regularly. Anyone thinking of entering, go to the PCA Zone 8 website under the Concours area, as there are a bunch of How to Prep, informational & rules downloads on there to help you out as both first timers & experienced contestants. The various Concours Prep & Judging Schools offered around Zone 8 are really good too. Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |

Recall on all the Spyders. Waiting on parts is what I hear from Donn. 10 days at least. Rob - was that the same recall that Donn told me about back in January when he came out to Temecla & he's still waiting? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ... or another one? Tom /////// |
