Hey Dave, glad to see you’re driving down. Certainly not as far as Helen was and some great roads.

A couple hundred miles shorter. It will be a shorter drive home in the remnants of a hurricane this time! Haha. Wouldn’t miss it for anything. See you there!

Is everyone staying at the Best Western in Banner Elk? My wife and I have done air b&b in the past for trips. Are there a lot of events happening at the Best Western that it would be worth staying there or would an air b&b close by be fine?

Best Western is the host hotel and where everything happens: registration, dinner/banquet, the door prize display of items, Friday drivers meeting and where the drive starts from, wash station for the cars...and just the general gatherings each day/night to hang out and lie about our cars... a big part of Okteenerfest is the comraderie of the people so just hanging with everyone each night IMO is one of the best parts...(and not worrying about drinking and driving)

A special thanks to Patrick of Kennedy RPM Flags.com for providing a sample of flags for the event.

https://www.kennedyrpmflags.com/product-p/por-914.htm
https://www.kennedyrpmflags.com/product-p/porsche-914-6.htm

I have a couple of these and they are great! Also if you are an attendee, PM me for a special deal on flags. No one else is making these flags and they are in high demand. Kennedy RPM Flags is making this special deal for attendees to show their support for the 914. So this is an additional bonus for attending!

I am sure all of us know Tangerine Racing and Chris Foley. Every part Chris makes is top notch and that is the reason I have so many of his parts on my car.

As a prose this year, Chris will be providing one of his amazing engine lift plates, an Oil Pressure Relief Valve, and a $120 gift certificate for the event.

Also we will be featuring the installation of the oil pressure relief valve in a tech session. Chris is offering a 10% discount on the oil pressure relief valve for attendees.

Sorry. I will be at the event in Twin lakes WI in a few week's.. I am much like you and just don't have much spare time. Notice how my own car is lingering with no updates.

You need to call 1) to get the special rate and 2) because our block takes up a majority of the hotel it won’t let people book online because the rooms are blocked off. There are still a few rooms left as of last week.

I may be the first casualty of Okteenerfest. My wife has just been diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer and will start radiation/chemo immediately and probably won't finish until early September...then surgery. Way too many unknowns for me to be away from her so I'm out. I have 2 rooms booked which I will cancel over the next couple days.
I understand if there are no refunds and if that's the case can someone mail my t-shirt?
I will, however, try to drive my car on 9/14.
Maybe next year.
Have fun and stay safe.

AND DON'T PUT OFF GETTING A COLONOSCOPY!!!

Is there a list of activities online yet. I'm trying to time my departure and arrival times.

EXCITED to be able to attend this year after all these attempts in the past only to have the rug pulled from under me year after year.
