You do need to be a member to register for the Parade and participate in the activities (Concours, Auto-X, Rallye, Banquets, etc), but you can spectate without being a member (if it's like previous Parades).

I believe the host hotel is the Marriott in Monterey, but there are plenty of other hotels in the area. The actual schedule and events won't be posted till January in all likelihood.

Hopefully Eric will be healthy through the whole event this year!

California 914 guys and all you others too!

Not since our cars were being built has the Parade been in Monterey. I can't think of a better place to invade with our 914's since there are so many of us in California and the surrounding area... Let's do it!


Except, of course, the one in 1990 .....................................

The Cap'n

I was there in my 914. beach boys racing debuted there Monterey 914 there.

I'll probably go, but I have places to stay in Pacific Grove and Capitola, so no hotel for me. Now just need to get the car back on the road by then.

You got a little less than 8 months, in that time you should be able to transplant a VW W16 into it!

This is perfect, I love all these Porsche events in Monterey...since my parents live in Aptos and I don't have to worry about a room (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Another thought... One of my co-workers just offered me his bumper-pull travel trailer. Sleeps 6 I think... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)

I have been invited to be a technical presenter on the modern Porsche engines at Parade in 2014, but I haven't made my mind up about doing it yet..

DO IT! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) There are soooo many Boxters around these parts

I sure hope work doesn't get in the way of a visit to Parade next year since it is so close. Joining the AX would be epic. I've already put in some sweat and beers on the 914 Limo at McMark's and would do more work to have it ready for Parade (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Just spoke with admen at Laguna Seca and they are saying it's not one of the major events at the track,,,?,, but the track well be in use by the Porsche Parade for 2 days though could not affirm the 2 days of use at this time.
I just made my res. for the whole event as can always change the dates later and Monterey hotels/motels book up for several events at all times, not a good place to just drop in and get a room .

If you're in PCA, you'll see the schedule of events when it gets published, or up on http://pca.org .

If you're not, then you'll have to rely on PCA members to tell you when things are going on.

The two main things to see:
- The Concours (usually in the morning, Monday or Tuesday) with all of the amazing shiny cars lined up somewhere beautiful.
- The autoX, which is spread over a couple of days and is located on some large piece of pavement nearby. Might be the Marina airport, or might be the Laguna Seca paddock again.

The tours might be of interest, but you'll have to talk to Eric about those. If you're not a PCA'er, your driving will be completely unofficial.

The Rally is limited to participants, as is the Tech Quiz. You can probably hang out in the hotel bar and BS with everyone without signing up for Parade, but there will be some areas that will be off limits. (The Hospitality room, the Goodie Store, the Art Show, etc.)

In 73 Parade AX was held on the track. Would be cool to replicate that event again! Here is my dad finishing parade ax back in 73.

This is awesome video of concours and ax from 73 parade I attended with my family . My dads all orange 914 parked at local dealer. The 914/6 I rode in on 17 mile drive to concours at pebble beach is in this too! Not sure where first part of video is from but majority of it after first 4 minutes is Monetery in 73.
