So... Question r/e display only entrants. How do you gain access to the display area? Do I bring proof I have paid? Or am I on some list with Motorsportreg ? Thanks. For those who pre-register, the OCR volunteers at check-in should have you on a list, but IMHO bring a paid receipt print-out or on your phone if you saved it as a page there.

Everything about Dana Point/Lantern Bay is better in my estimation... Can't be helped Lawrence, all 4 car shows got booted from Dana due to lack of water causing dead grass in park. I think everyone is hoping we'll be back there in the future. Dave - you'll have better .... or at least flatter trailer parking at Mile Square!

Folks - feel free to express your support for a return to Dana with Concours Chair Norm Follis, while you're there.
I'm sure the committee will take into account the preferences of members & public in future decisions - assuming the city reopens that park to future Concours. They did try out Sand Canyon CC a few years ago, then went back to Dana the next year after member feedback. However, I know a guy with the Woody Club who said the city is trying to get them to move it to an on-street location on Del Prado Ave. with traffic whizzing by - which just does not work for us judges trying to concentrate on the cars within our allotted 5 min. time, & not get whacked by a passing car! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Apparently the director of parks & rec and some other city staffers have changed in the past year or so, & they have other ideas for car shows & concours, which won't work out for the participants & spectators. Their idea is to pull traffic & business into the retail area along del Prado, which would be okay if an off-street location were secured - even if not as beautiful a setting, as the park on a bluff overlooking the harbor & state park/beaches there. So words of wisdom to the city would help too! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) BTW - the 356 Registry has been allowed back on the park, after one of their member's spouse - who works for Orange County's water management dept. - got them a bit more water allottment in the drought plan. Unfortunately, we at PCA-OCR don't have a similar advantage! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) TIA (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |

As much as I had prepared and planned, I won't be going to this one.
The 'rules of the event location' made it almost impossible to feasibly bring a car on a trailer. . From the instructions and map I was sent, trailer parking is relegated to what looks like 1/2 mile away on the dirt shoulder of an access road. . Park restrictions say no trailers allowed to park in parking lots. Not conducive to full concour cars at all. . My experience with having events at public parks is like inviting munchkins to touch and feel. . . Had a kid, with his parent at hand, stick a wad of bubble gum on the side of my car last year. . Parent did absolutely nothing and just walked away. . . . and you often have to keep you eye on your stuff all the time or it walks off. . From the registration information online only 2 full concour cars are currently entered. Last year at the San Diego 'Park" show I got a parking warning from a very upset Harbor Police officer for parking my trailer in the public lot. . Won't tow to that one either anymore. End of Rant. |

Sorry to hear you won't be making it Dave, & of the trailer issues. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
I think some of this year's problems are that they've had to make lemons out of lemonade, with losing the Dana Point site (which is also a public park BTW). I'll mention it to our Concours Chairman as something to fix for next year. Hope to see you in SD at the Concours. Your silver beauty will be missed on Saturday! Cheers!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) For those entering for the 1st time or wanting some helpful info on being a CW - Concours Wanker in my parlance - the link below has a bunch of helpful info, how to prep articles, rules, slideshow on judging, etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) http://www.zone8.org/events/format/concours.php For those displaying - just wash & clean her up to look purdy & (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) over, & enjoy the interest you'll get, questions on 914s, & seeing the other nice cars & folks out there tomorrow. It's supposed to be pretty HOT, so bring water etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) ... I have no idea what kind of shade will be available where the city's park dept. will have us set-up, so it may be an idea bring some shade too, as well as beach/camp chairs to relax. Cheers!
