Porsches & Planes in LA! - LA Region PCA Concours Sun 9/10/17, Santa Monica Museum of Flying Options

[Tom_T]

UPDATE:

If you're wondering what happened to the LA Region's PCA Zone 8 Concours normally held in July, for 2017 it has been moved to Sunday Sept. 10 2017, & it's again at the Santa Monica Museum of Flying.

Here is their Reg page link:
https://www.motorsportreg.com/events/pca-la...-angeles-932761

Remember that there is now a 914/914-6 Class in Wash & Shine Division since last year, & in all other Divisions except Ubergang (for new Porsches without easy/much engine access, so engine not judged in UG).

Also remember that you can enter an engine swapped Porsche - including 914s - in the Special Categories Division SC-1 - & if you track/AX your 914 or other Porsche, then you can do SC-2.

Come on out & see some nice Porsches & Planes, great lunch, etc.

AFAIK, you can get a free informal display by just parking in the parking lot out front, but formal Display areas are inside the museum building & in the back display area.

It couldn't have been closer in the points with the others in the class. I've been chasing some owners all season with years of showing thinking if I was close then I'm cool with that but she won one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Wes, just so you know ....

That was from back in the 2015 one. I wish Andy would come back out with his "Bitchen -6", but he's been too busy with work since then.

In that 2015 season, Andy was on the way to the Zone 8 overall annual awards too, along with 3-4 very experienced past Full Concours winners, including the Porsche Award Winner from the Monterey Parade.

Then after that LAR 2015 show, he got hit in the RR-3/4 corner at the gas station, literally on the way to San Diego Concours the next month after this 2015 LAR one (see Andy's pix at the SDR Concours topic which I just updated for 2017). After a frantic call from Andy at the gas station here in Orange, we were able to get the damaged area waived/excluded from judging at that San Diego Concours event.

See post #9 here at the SDR Concours topic:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...=2&t=260023

That hit & the needed repairs put him out of the running for the overall Full Concours award in 2015, but he would've still gotten it in the 914 Class of Full, if he'd even just taken it as-is in its damaged state to a 2-3 more shows to meet the annual number of shows entered minimum, & suffered point losses .... but .... Andy is a perfectionist & didn't want to do that.

Currently he & Kent are helping Jim G. to finish Jim's excellent Phoenix Red 70-6, which should do very well in either Full Concours or Street Divisions (Full requires cleaning/detailing the undercarriage + the Street's exterior, interior, engine & storage (both trunks for 914s) - so much more work for us old farts like Jim & I!

Andy's is truly an amazing resurrection - much more than a resto! Maybe we'll see Andy do some TLC on his DD'ed 914-6 & return for some more torture ... errrr .... I mean awards! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)
