At this point I'm planning on crashing the event. I'll probably go to the Friday breakfast and then split when it's drive time. Saturday I might try to catch up with the post-AX crowd for dinner. Sunday I'll go to the swap meet and crash the goodbye lunch or whatever is planned. That'll be just about all I can stand of happy 914 people until my car is drivable.

I think it's about the people. the cars are just the common thread that brings us together. I'm glad your planning the join in. BTW: We could probably use some extra people that know there way around with us.

I still have several people that havent signed up yet. I have NO idea how we will accomodate them.


Ok kids...this is how it is. Registration closed a week ago today. It closed because the event planners need to have a headcount and time to make commitments to vendors, caterers and do other organizing and coordinating for the event to minimize any glitches. This is not like every other car event you are used to where you can just show up at the door and crash the party, or decide last minute on whether or not to attend.

We have already ordered specialty items, paid deposits and quantified things, so certain items are already fixed. But we will try to remain as flexible as possible, because this event is really for you and we really want as many 914 owners to gather as possible for the WCC 2004, but we need your understanding and cooperation.

If anyone is not preregistered and prepaid for the breakfast, and you just show up at the door, you wont be able to eat. You also will not even be able to sit with us because there won't be chairs for you or room. There are no extra goodie bags, even for purchase. This is not like the IHOP breakfasts, its a prepaid event and we need to know well in advance who will attend. So you will be turned away, which is not something we want to do. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) So REGISTER and PAY NOW if you want to participate.

If anyone wants to attend this WCC, or even a portion of the event like just the AX, or the farewell party, they are invited but we respectully request a Reg Form, including payment IMMEDIATELY.

Any registrations that we cannot accommodate, will be returned.

Anyone not preregistered and prepaid for the breakfast or Monterey Drive, will be turned away.

You CAN just show up without pre-registering or pre-payment for the 914Club AX, pay the fee at the door and you can play with us (but you wont be eligible for the AX awards). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You CAN just show up at PartsHeaven on Sunday but...If you are not pre-registered (no payment needed), you cannot park your 914 with us as a 914club, as that will be prearranged. Without prepaid registration you also will not be eligible for the Awards or the parts Raffle at the Farewell Party. But you can eat your hot dog from the PartsHeaven hot dog cart with us...

Contact me directly if you have any questions...

Thanks Jeff that does answer some questions. Maybe I'm daft but I wasn't 100% positive what exactly was included in the registration and what wasn't. Some things were clear like the 17 mile drive fees and the AX fees, but other things (food mostly) didn't seem spelled out for us mental midgets.

Also, has a support vehicle been designated for the Friday drive? If not I could probably be coerced.

Hell, I'm still brainstorming to try to find a car in record time, but I'm still registered, paid, and planning on going...

Guess I need to try to make a room reservation too...

Looks like I'm going solo, the family isn't too hot on doing things in the area w/o me while I'm doing 914 stuff. The wifie doesn't really like 914 computer geeks anyway! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif)

Iz sooo confused...

FYI, Pruneyard still seems to have rooms and is still offering the club rate of $85. I just made reservations.

Brad better go, otherwise I'm going to have to converse with somebody else to make this trip a write off... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Enough with the "Boo Hoo, Boo Hoo, poor Brad is on the welfare and has to work" bullshit, he needs the write-off too!!!

Yeah. It's tough love.

I'm glad you're coming, Steve. Too bad the kids won't be with you.

Thanks! Great list. I'm looking forward to putting names to faces.

Are we planning on doing name tags? I know it sounds dorky but I think it would help greatly if we had name tags with the club username and our real names. I will even volunteer to print them up if someone wants to send me an excel file or text file with the info.

Jeff,
How's the 17 mile drive set up? Are we going to try to keep a continuous line of 914's or just meet at certain spots? That will be a historic sight. When are we going to see the route?

Hi Felix, all the details are being worked out now, and will be included in the event brochure which will be distributed at the Breakfast. We will drive the twisty road tour, incuding the 17-Mile Drive in smaller pods of about 10-12 cars, which will redezvous at group photo locations.

Registration confirmations and brief info will be sent out in another week or two...

Allright! (sheesh, it's about time)

Now, we still need the bradmeister and the crowd that he's threatened to bring to the party.

Who else is missing but available (sorry Gint can't come) and needs a personal invitation??

I briefly entertained the thought of flying out there Friday morning (while my wife and kids fly to Albany), and then flying out Friday night to Albany and meeting back up with the fam.

I'd lose $300 for the original ticket, and the tickets there and then to Albany would cost (this is where I REALLY choked) about $700-800.

Jeroen, I'd ship your hat to Brad, but he won't give me his new address (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) like he doesn't want me to know where he lives (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I don't get it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I'm afraid if I ship it to HPH you'll never get it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) just cause there's so much going on there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
