Will there ever be an East Coast Ramble where it alternates between the north and south eastern states? Or does the Hershey event cover most everyone. The Hershey event is on my bucket list. Gotta make it back there for that some day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

They usually do an East Coast Cookout too. Just another opportunity for the evil doc to prey on the innocent.

The East Coast Ramble went for quite a few years. It was generally (always?) in the Northeast; often in Vermont, at least once at Watkins Glen, and at least once in Montreal. I had some good times at those--must have been good, 'cause there are still some parts I don't remember! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Evill Ed and Unca Dunca (John Dunkle from Rennlist) were involved in putting on the earlier ones, I think Ralf Hartmann organized several of the later ones. I don't know what is going on with it now. --DD |

Kerry Herr started an East Coast Cookout/Mid-Atlantic Mid-Engine Ramble in about '04 ('03?). The first was in Richmond VA, then PA, MD, VA others repeat states; no ECC last year (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) idea was that is was held on or about 9/14 or when agreed upon

Gotta make it back there for that some day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Cheers, Elliot There is an east coast ramble every year but its not really a 914 event. It doesn't get much press on our forums. Ralph Hartmann is still one of the organizers. I'm (probably) having an open house at the shop this year, but my events are one day only. |

Maybe Rich T will have a roadworthy 914 by then.....but probably not (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

Setting these up is like herding cats (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) We keep trying and it keeps moving around and then often almost not happening.

Yup, ECC is at Scott's shop in VA. I hate to sound bitchy (I really do) but I got annoyed when I worked to set up the ECC in Cumberland with Bill in 2010, including an AX and party, and got a totally lackluster response. We only had a few (4?) cars in the AX - which was almost all historics and insanely fun, and maybe 10 cars at the party. On a really NICE fall day, I was bummed to get such a small showing.
Scott got a nice turnout last year, so I'm backing his party as the new ECC, and embracing the nice mix of rods and porsches that show up. Its a FUN party! Zach |

We only had a few (4?) cars in the AX - which was almost all historics and insanely fun, and maybe 10 cars at the party. On a really NICE fall day, I was bummed to get such a small showing. I remember, I was working that weekend and couldn't get away until the last minute. I live only an hour or so away, but I didn't show because there were no directions to where the party was. There were directions to the airport/AX, but for someone leaving at 4:30, I assumed that the AX would be done and everyone gone by the time I got there. So I bagged it. I think the lesson learned is that we have to have a contact posted early for people who are traveling. Not to belittle your efforts, Zach. It's hard work and that's why nobody wants to do it. |
