Have you been to one before? If not, why in the fence?

We just booked out plane tickets yesterday.

Rennsport is better than Monterey Historics! Worth the effort.

Mostly financial. I have a bunch of spendy activities going on during September and October. I need to cut the fat somewhere.

I know the feeling...
-SCCA Dragon Hill Climb
-Okteenerfest
-Rennsport Reunion
-Petit LeMans

All in back to back to back to back weeks...Petit might be the odd one out this year.

I'm at the Hojo too. A bit over a month away! Do we have a count on the 914 guys attending yet?

I have not seen any planned rendezvous.

I will be there but not my 914, I will have my truck and trailer in campsite CSV 605 overlooking the corkscrew.

All of our 914world friends can always meet up at the MSDS booth located in the Merchant row. Not a big tent, but centrally located if you need to meet up, hang out or (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Had I thought about it and planned better, I was going to ask one of you if we could borrow a 914 for the corral. However, being only a month-ish away and obviously the corrals are sold out, I guess it doesn't matter now. We'll have a rental car instead.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I'll be at HoJo Thursday. I have an open seat if you would like to join us at the corral; there should be additional open seats from HoJo to Laguna Seca.

FYI: there's a great lunch/dinner place on the beach at the end of Reservation Road in Marina. Kula Ranch. Good parking, reasonable prices, and right on the beach.

The corral has been sold out however you can get on a waiting list though I wonder what the likelihood of more room opening up!
I must say it is quite amazing to me that at a Porsche only event the Porsche Corral parking would not have enough tickets to buy at this point being over a month away.

For the 2011 Rennsport IV at Laguna Seca, they used all the area in Green Lots 3 and 4 for the Porsche Corral (see attached layout) - that's a lot of parking!
My guess is they just didn't have enough room; they may open up more dedicated Porsche corral space but I wouldn't bet on it.
Between you and me, I'm not driving my 914 or Cayman - I can't handle the heavy clutch in the Teener for the long traffic jam drive home to San Jose (plus the lot closed before I could even sign up for it).

Here's a short video of the Green parking lot at the last Rennsport. It starts near #3 of the green section (see map in previous post) and swings up to green #4. In the distance you can see a whole bunch of cars parked in the Blue #4 section. As I recall there were about 800 Porsches in the green section and another 500 in the blue section ... and they still ran out of reserved spots.
