UPDATE:
If you're wondering what happened to the LA Region's PCA Zone 8 Concours normally held in July, for 2017 it has been moved to Sunday Sept. 10 2017, & it's again at the Santa Monica Museum of Flying. Here is their Reg page link: https://www.motorsportreg.com/events/pca-la...-angeles-932761 Remember that there is now a 914/914-6 Class in Wash & Shine Division since last year, & in all other Divisions except Ubergang (for new Porsches without easy/much engine access, so engine not judged in UG). Also remember that you can enter an engine swapped Porsche - including 914s - in the Special Categories Division SC-1 - & if you track/AX your 914 or other Porsche, then you can do SC-2. Come on out & see some nice Porsches & Planes, great lunch, etc. AFAIK, you can get a free informal display by just parking in the parking lot out front, but formal Display areas are inside the museum building & in the back display area. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/static.wixstatic.com-10181-1499741952.1.jpg) . [i]INFO ON PAST EVENTS BELOW:[/i] Another fun Porsche event is coming next month in LA - Porsches & Planes at the Santa Monica Museum of Flying across from the south side of Santa Monica Airport on Sun. 7/12/15. So enthusiasts can come out & see both P-cars & Aircraft! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) CWs can enter for Concours judging! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) ....

Sorry, but I'll be at the G&R. By the way, the Santa Monica airport won't be there much longer. They might need another venue for this event. Might I recommend Riverside? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Well, they got rid of Meadowlark back when, but this will be a harder nut to crack, since there are too many power players with planes at Santa Monica, & the FAA has federal law to back them up keeping it there. I just find it incredibly stupid that folks move next to an airport & then complain about the noise! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) El Toro should've been an international airport for OC, but they worried about the noise in those areas south & west, got rid of it, & now have the JWA/SNA noise over them, now that the controlled airspace around El Toro is gone! Serves them right! Say Cheers to Tony D. for me next time you talk (I've lost his number (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) - please PM or email it to me when you get a chance), & travel safe coming down to G&R next weekend. Happy 4th E! Tom /////// |

QUOTE(jim_hoyland @ Jul 4 2015, 04:58 PM) Jim - LAR had this date scheduled soon after their 2014 one last July! G&R was supposed to be in April .... not July 12th .... but then it got cancelled, kicked out, adopted by Bruce & now scheduled for the same day! However, it is possible to do G&R in the morning & this in the afternoon, for those who want to see the Air Museum & Porsches. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Last year they had 2 Carerra GTs on display, & probably 1 or 2 + a 918 this year. I'm judging, so I have to be there pretty much all day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |

Sorry I missed you Marty! I was off judging on the other cars on the far side when you guys were chatting. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Well someone took home top honors here with a score just 0.2 off the perfect 325, & is well on his way to securing some 2015 overall Zone 8 honors as well! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)  .... but I think he's talking with the "Ice Princess" photo gal here, & not looking at his hardware, like Kent is doing! Must be tough to be chased by the paparazzi!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I'm sure he'll add some nicer pix than my crappy cell phone pic when he gets a chance. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) See what you miss when you reschedule the GR&B on top of the long standing LA Region's Concoiurs! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Cheers!

The Museum of Flying also has some interesting aircraft etc. to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) over,
.... including this Mid-Engine Car of another sort! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)        (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) ... hmmmmm .... radial aero-engined 914 .... Kinda like Bill Cosby's 1960's bit about the Cessna powered Rambler! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ... or whatever car that was? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |

 There! ... it worked that time! Feel free to add your own pix from the event here too! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) Tom /////// |

On the food - & not to knock the GR&B cookout food - but LAR had a great caterer there this year & last with BBQ chicken, ribs & tri-tip, beans, slaw, mac & potato salads, bread, sodas, etc. So you might consider putting it on your calendar for next July, & maybe the GR&B can get scheduled back to spring & fall on a non-conflicting weekend. Bruce - you can PM or email me when you're scheduling them next time & I'll email you the link for the Zone 8 events, to keep the 914 swap off of the AX, DE/TT/Track, Concours & other events in SoCal. PS - what you can't see is that Andy in the pic above has the bowl full of his seconds or thirds of the BBQ food to take home! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Cheers!

It couldn't have been closer in the points with the others in the class. I've been chasing some owners all season with years of showing thinking if I was close then I'm cool with that but she won one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
