Love that color. My 71 was that color. Would love to see it in person.


If all goes well you will. I'm hoping for a big crowd!


That will be really sweet! But if my wife doe sent seem too intrested...let's just say my 71 was not really very dependable and I was 24 hours late for our first date. But still somehow managed to seal the deal.

Got Rust?

Our excellent northern heavy metal experts at Restoration Design are sending something that many of us will need.

That right side engine tray below the battery is gone in many 914s. This is a part that many of us will need!

As the person that has been begging sponsors to support this event I want to point out that at this point, our sponsors have donated approximately $5K in items and support for this event. Some of the best ones have not been disclosed yet.

Besides the overall cool factor of the driving, if you attend this event there is a good chance you will walk away with some really cool stuff. It will be worth the effort.

Bump for the Event!

And I am in again for Banner Elk, Bob check is in the mail.

I was fortunate enough to win the Custom Gauges last year on the final Raffle draw, which will become part of my 914-6 GT recreation, unfortunately not in time for this year's event. I have another great runner that I am bringing looking forward to running those outstanding roads and the cooler weather.
Last year I got to run behind the four Sixes from the Fontana Dam to the lunch site in Bryson City. ( I think (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) ). The sixes were spectacular and they left me in the dust.

Great time if you are not signed up you are missing a great event!!

Was that the group with bob? Hang around enough and we will have a 6 in yours. It's amazing what you can do with a set of tools and a 12 pack!
Look forward to seeing everybody.

Valves and carbs adjusted, some minor paint work on some under carriage and we are ready. Thinking of getting the rear brakes upgraded to the brembos. See you soon!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Looking to go fast on some curves? The guys at Tarett Engineering are giving someone a 50% off deal on a front sway bar kit! That is some seriously well engineered kit.

OK, so I just spoke to the hotel to finalize all the meals, rooms and such and give a deposit. She said there are 24 rooms booked already with our group.

Our room block is released on 8/17, meaning after that, you may have a tough time getting a room, so book it now and get your registration in!

Just over 8 weeks away!!!

Would love to attend, but will be at a wedding in New York state between my nephew - Army Ranger LtCol (3 tours to Afghanistan and 2 to Iraq) and his beautiful wife-to-be - Army full Colonel doctor. Maybe next year.

Heading to Afghanistan soon. Tell your nephew many of us appreciate his service and the sacrifice he has made for our country. He has earned a great wedding day.

Totally acceptable excuse! Tell him and his new wife that everyone on 914world thanks them for all they have done and we hope their wedding day is perfect! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif)

I am an engine swap and some front and rear wheel bearings away with luck. One motor out and fixed and is now ready to go in. Have to get the motor out of the LE and get wheel bearings done. Still a possibility. I'm not out yet.
