This will be an “off the cuff” event. These are the suggested hotels but meals will be dependent on the COVID situation and of course your level of comfort and risk. Parking lot shenanigans the same. There are no group hotel reservations - call or go online to reserve as an individual unique person. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Please let me know if you plan to do your own thing in place of the organized food/meals.

Thurs Sep 10 Montrose, CO, Red Arrow Inn & Suites, 1702 E Main St, Montrose, CO 81401, 970-249-9641. Dinner 6:30pm at Horsefly Brewing patio, 826 E Main St, Montrose, followed by shenanigans.

Fri Sep 11, drive to Durango. There won't be an organized lunch so BYOL. We'll stop in Silverton for around an hour if you want to find lunch there.

Fri-Sun Sep 11-13 Durango, CO, Caboose Motel, 3363 Main Ave, Durango, CO 81301, 970-946-2518 ask for Maureen (if she doesn't answer, leave a message for Porsche 914 group and she'll call back)

Fri Sep 11, 5pm dinner at James Ranch Grill in their outdoor under tent seating, 33846 US-550, Durango, followed by shenanigan-agains

Sat Sep 12 drive is probably this. We'll have "lunch snacks" like chips, apples, veggies and cookies.
Attached Image

Sat Sep 12 dinner BBQ at Moorman’s, 346 Horse Thief Lane - 7.3 miles north of the Caboose - turn right at the stop light - then right into South Dalton Ranch. (We ❤️ Moormans) followed by she-nanigans.

Sun Sep 13 Hasta la bye-bye. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)

This is the t-shirt link. It’s an order and pay and Custom Ink ships so even if you can’t attend, feel free to order a shirt. *shirt ordering is closed*
This is, above all, an opportunity to connect with friends and deal crud about our cars, as always. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) We will be wearing masks in situations we can’t socially distance.

Interesting...maybe that's why! Always thought those were "early" Rivs with the rounded spokes/paddles. Not usually polished. Anyway they look good.

Thanks to all. We had a great time and being able to spend some quality time with my 28 year old son is priceless. We went up Pikes Peak on the way back, that was interesting and is a lot narrower than I thought from watching videos. 3300 miles in total, the car only got better the more we drove it and the more we appreciated it. The only glitch was early in the trip when one front tire rubbed the inner front fender when I hit a dip in the road so I stopped at a gas station and adjusted the front suspension up. It was great seeing all the cars and the stories about the cars. Most of the way back I was thinking of what I was going to improve on my car next like smaller diameter front rotor so I can move the wheels in and mount 7” Fuchs in the front also. Move my coolant lines out of the tunnel and redo the front clip and radiator. The Yakima cargo box was solid and I didn’t know it was there even at 100+. It was a great time and thanks to all.

Ross - it was great to meet you and Seth. Glad to hear that you are home safe.

Your car was a hit to say the least. Please plan on coming to Red Rocks Classic again - cheers!

this is the proper way to pack your trunks for an RRC event:

Took a few days sightseeing and got home late last night. Spent today putting a clutch in my daughters Jetta. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)

Many thanks to Sharon for organizing, Mike and Kathy Wills for hosting Friday night and Mike and Mary Moorman for Saturday night. Always nice seeing old friends and meeting new people.

@brant

First, Thanks Ed!

Second, I found and fixed that annoying rattle! Muffler bracket nut came off the transaxle. The bracket would clatter at super low RPM under load. It was driving me insane. Gone!
