I know it is early. But, in working with the PCA on their 914 calendar ad, I talked to them about letting us park all of the 914s in the concours corral (even though if they are not in the concours). They have agreed to let us have our own area in there to park (we just have to give them a list of cars 10 days in advance).
With that in mind, I was thinking about doing a mini-914 show there, with some awards and all, and having the dinner on Saturday night, after the Swap Meet. What do you think? We would still do the drive on Friday. WHO'S COMING? struckn Big Len mepstein stevegm somd914 saigon71 |

Steve - First, thanks for communicating with the PCA on this event. It must have been a bit frustrating.
Judging by the fact that there are more 914s than all other mid engine Porsches combined, you would think that the stand alone catagory would be for us and not for the minority. I don't recall the number of different classes of cars, but it leads me to believe there may be a lack of respect for the 914. I don't doubt that if "only" five 356's registered, the PCA would continue with the class. So be it. Let me also say that I think you're a douchbag if you enter a brand new car. I've seen this at many different shows with Corvettes and M3's alike and I still don't get it. And let me add, if you're a spectator and your people's choice vote goes to a 2015 M3 over a equally beautiful 1972 2002 tii, your vote should be nullified. In the end, I would still go forward with the goal to enter as many 914's as available. The end result would be having the group together in a very visible area. It would show unity and the love we have for these cars amd maybe, sway a few people to become future owners. |
