Okay Folks, Donna (my better half) finally got approval for time off for this event. So we will be meeting up Wednesday morning with @FL000 , code word 'aburguine' @VegasRacer , @76-914 , and @densible1 in Mesquite for the caravan. I fully expect crap from everyone about driving a truck and trailer. It will be nice to got out of the heat for a while.

Only thing I'm worried about is where to park the truck and trailer. |

They said if its full they had an agreement with the bank across the street for extra parking and its already been approved. So we may have truck and trailers next to each other across the street.

Mike Me too. We also found a lot by the airport. Jim, Bob, Just got off the phone with the Silver Lodge about the trailer parking. I told them it would be from Thursday until Sunday and there will be at least 3 rigs and possibly more. They assured me that it would be fine. As I see it here are our options. 1- park in their lot if room is available. 2- park at the bank lot across street (already approved by them and the bank). 3- park at their sister property down the road (extra large lot according to them).

@mxkinn01 - You and Donna should throw caution to the wind and drive the 914 up. Nothing like the fear of a breakdown hundreds of miles from home to spice things up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Nothing like the fear of a breakdown hundreds of miles from home to spice things up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) As I figure it, that means seven days away from home driving around in a 914. How i love the car. And how Donna thinks that all can be fixed via Visa. it is still a bit daunting. Have we missed any registration deadlines? |

No big deal on the trailer, that's how I'm bringing my car this year. Only thing I'm worried about is where to park the truck and trailer. I would worry about losing a ramp! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |

JP, sorry to miss the Mesquite hookup. mark That's a bummer @densible1. Not sure how to interpret this but please let us know how surgery goes whether it's on a clutch, an ankle, or a clutch ankle. Hopefully not your own ankle. @worn here's your opportunity to book if you'd like. |

2 weeks. When preflighting I realized that I needed to do an oil and filter change since I would most likely put 3000 miles on it this trip alone. So stoked, so ready. This was my 1st 914 gathering in 2010. Slits did his fire dance and my phone was passed around to take pic's of some willing ladies upper attributes, if you will. My wife never believed I was an innocent bystander. Thx a lot guys. I busted Jim B's lungs that trip. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) I drove my 76 after a brief 9 month refresh but threw caution to the wind thinking "what could possibly go wrong"! Ed aka ejm hitched my psg seat and told me more about my car than I knew about it. Lots of water has passed under that bridge since then but the same great folks, sans Ron aka Slits, haven't. Looking forward to another great reunion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

JP, sorry to miss the Mesquite hookup. mark Oh man, that sucks. After all the work I spent dialing that motor in I was really hoping to see you ripping around in it this year. And I owe you a window sticker. To many of you LA guys getting taken out by injuries, take it easy out there. Wishing for a speedy recovery. |
