Sorry to say guys (& gals) it looks like I'm out of the running for this year. I'll have to wait a whole year for the next opportunity - that sucks.

The CV joints went out on my teener. I had a spare set of used shafts that we were able to come up with four that were usable for at least a few months - until I can find a source for rebuilts.

Anyhow I ended up spending all the cash (and more) I set aside for the trip (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)

I am totally bummed, but at least my wife gets her car back for the next few weeks.

Enjoy! And get lots of pictures.

Hey all,
John (VegasRacer) and I are in a little coffee shop in Williams. Wish you were here!!! Looking forward to Neverland!

Been a great day with perfect weather so far. It's not to hot, that's for sure!

No traffic on Rt66, road conditions are good W-E, so we imagine that the road will be wonderful tomorrow.

Peace, Liz & John

Bummer! I don't think it's gonna be a whole year before we do something in Arizona. We've got all winter to do something in the south, the summer to do something in the north, fall to do something in the east and spring to do something in the west. The Arizona gang has become a lot more active since WCC2005 and I expect we'll hatch some kind of plan before 12 months have passed.

At the moment mine stopped running and I'm trying to get it going again - electrical on the relay board I think - I hate when this kind of stuff happens!

I've been telling myself that I've got to stop saying to the club that the car is ready for Saturday... but this time I think it really is! Got the electrical gremlin fixed, adjusted a tight valve, and swapped the busted heat exchanger. Just took it out for a couple of miles and it runs sweet. I think we're actually ready to go... who needs sleep anyway?

Sleep is for dogs, cats and infants.

The gang's all here. Joe Sharp and Linda Horn made it early this morning. Joe' having vapor lock issues with Neverland, so he says he'll head straight into Kingman after breakfast.



See ya at 9:14 in Ass Fork!

I was the last one to show up, and I'm guessing the first one to make it back home, funny how that works. Anyway, had a great time, and enjoyed meeting everyone. I'd love to see more events like this in the future.

Back home in Flagstaff! Wow, what a day! Only got 3 hours of sleep last night after getting the car finished, but it performed flawlessly all day. It was a really fun day with everyone - and the road to Oatman was the most incredible, all out, twisting driving fun I've ever had. If you weren't here, you really missed out! (Gotta rub it in!)

We ended up with 5 cars and 9 people. The folks at the diner in Ash Fork really pulled out all the stops for us. We had our own 914 special that more than filled us for the day for $9.14. I think only Ron and Mike managed to finish it all!

Thanks to John Peterson for scoping out the route ahead of time and for arranging for the great T-Shirts. Thanks to Jeroen for great T-Shirt artwork. Thanks to everyone for showing up!

No, I'm a hard core bottom feeder. I have loved 914's since 1970. Just reading about Porsche engines...... Just shot a few practice rounds(big backyard).
