Folks -

It is a bit late in the year to start planning an entire event from the ground up, put it together and actually expect people to attend it in a 4 to six week period - Clay and Tony had been talking about having this event in Fredricksberg, but October is impossible due to Oktoberfest is celebrated there the entire month of October... Hotels are already fully booked ...

So after much consideration, this is what I am proposing...

Due to time frame, we piggyback an existing event, and no one has to kill themselves this way -

Porsche-Palooza is a national PCA event taking place in Eureka Springs, AR, November 9-11th. This event is put together and ran very similar to the MUSR's... Meet and greet registration Friday, cocktails Friday evening, show and shine and at least 2 different cruises Saturday, and a formal dinner Saturday evening, There is also a Auto-X Sunday AM - This appears to primarly be a 911-996-boxter crowd, but since it is PCA we won't be crashing their party -

Distance from Dallas to Eurecka Springs is 375 miles, so please make sure your car is in good working order - If you don't have a 914 but want to come, please do ! I have already had a question whether or not someone could drive their Morgan 4 !

You pay for what you want at this event..
No registration Fee -
If you pay in advance prior to Oct. 25th -
T-shirts , $12 if you want one
dinner, $32 if you want
Auto-x, $20 if you want
Motel - ~$75 per night at the event hotel, or ~$45 a night down the street at the cool funky motel, where most of the 914 folks will be -

Joseph Mills and a few of his friends and their 911's will down the street at the funky hotel.. I plan on joining them there -

This is a big event - Last year 117 cars and over 200 participants -
I will be posting this information on all the 914 sites in the next day or so -

Please let me know if you are interested so I can gauge interest, and maybe get a few more rooms put on hold for us -
Below is a link of the event website, and the funky motel -

Preliminary thoughts for travel for the Texas gang include meeting at Wes Hildreths shop Thursday (the 8th) afternoon in Plano, Tx, and driving to Talihina, OK - breakfast Friday AM in Talihina, and drive on the Eureka Springs via the Talimena Parkway - (one of the best roads in the country) -

Please let me know your interest, positive or negative -
