@Krieger - Funny you should mention that. We (all the lane residents) are partnering with the neighbors who actually own the lane to have the potholes filled and the speed bump removed! Not sure it'll be gone by the 9th but it will be gone "soon"! |

Awesome! My track car has an issue driving over and around it. I may have to drive my red one.

Thanks Chris! Looking forward to seeing everyone there. A friend will be going as well. He is the new owner of a 914-6. We will each bring our own cars.

It's looking like it'll be a great turnout!
Just want to poke you attendees: Only one person has mentioned wanting some help with a project - and that's fine. I'm totally good with this being more of a 'cars & pizza' thing! Big THANKS to Robert @buddyV for his offer of grub! So just a reminder: If you want to "do some real work", please PM me to let me know so I can be prepared. If all we have is this one thing I mentioned, you may be forced to watch me struggle through a redesign / fabrication of something for my car! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |

A bit less than a week until our event and the only thing on the "to do" work list is making a small panel to hold a couple auxiliary gauges.
Not that I don't love a gathering, I just want to be sure I'm prepared. So if you want help with a part or access to tools or do anything other than hang out, drink/eat and take turns driving my car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) , please let me know ASAP. I've confirmed that Bill will be here with his 50-years owned '58 Speedster. Seeing his car is one thing but hearing his stories about midget racing, building and racing his own Group 7 car or his exploits racing the Volvo is worth the price of admission - which is free! Bill is 85 and one of the OG "build-it-race-it-improve-it-repeat" guys from back in the day. In short, there will be no shortage of interesting stuff. See you on the 9th!

As you enter our lane and pass the first house, WATCH OUT FOR THE SPEED BUMP!!
There are also a couple REALLY BIG pot holes on the right side, just in front of the bump. In my 914, I put my driver side tire just off the left edge of the bump and I make it over just fine. But don't say you weren't warned! |

I'll be driving my 914 in from Sacramento, about 2 hrs.
I have not driven this 914 that far yet, so it will be a test of both me and the 914. Anyone else driving in from my direction? Jim |

Yes, HB and I are meeting up at the IKEA somewhere near Sacramento and then going from there. I sent you a PM.
Thanks, Michael |

This thread has pictures of two cars with American Racing Torque Thrust wheels ! I'd love to attend, looks like an awsome event. The travel time is an issue. |

Planning a straight run out 80 to 37? I had looked at going out of Woodland out past Lake Berryessa but it adds an hour. I'll send my cell phone number via PM. Jim |

Just saw this. I'll try to make it for at least a few hours. @markhoward - I'd love that wheel if you're coming up.
Thanks Chris! |

For anyone coming out of the Sacramento area, we will be meeting at the McDonald's at 700 Ikea Court, W Sacramento at 0700. We will leave for Petaluma after the appropriate amount of BS'ing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
