At 70mph, for 20hrs a day, with 4 hours for breaks and sleep, you can make it here in just over 2 days. Soooo, if you take your time you can sleep an extra 4 hrs/day (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

We will be there. We have a back to back vendor space. (Rob may decide not to bring parts to sell, and drive his 914 turbo).

Definitely worth the drive! It took us a day just to walk through the swap meet. With a little time left over for the for sale corral. If I lived in California, I would still make the trip.

Unbelievable event! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

I've been wanting to go to Hershey for quite some time & just might get off my ass & go this year. One thing I know for sure is that it's Hershey- that means Civic & no 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) ... it's gonna rain (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Hi...I am close to Hershey and should be able to make it, so if you're trying to reach a certain number of 914's, count me in. Thanks
Steve

Hi,
This is the First Annual MidEngine Invasion at Hershey...the largest Porsche only swap meet and soon to be the largest 914 attended event....(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Its in Hershey PA.
We decided to invade Hershey at both the Swap meet and the AutoX on Sunday.
This is an event that has been going on now for 3 decades and its time we invaded.

The simple plan is as follows.
The Event is on April 25th...
Most people arrive on friday night.
I drive down iron butt and get there at 6:30 am

So,
We will be getting at least 4 spaces to allow us to hang out and have a tent etc.
We will get a single cheap hotel with a bar...Dr Evil is on that.

I have contacted the Central Region PCA group to see if they will allow the following.
A special section for 914 only parking in the corral/show area.
We will have several awards in that area.
A special class for our 914 community (Club and World) with the ability to give out awards....if not we can get the sheets at the end of the autox and figure that out ourselves...
We will have awards one way or another.
Special allowances for V8 cars, typically this region does not allow them...so I am told.

We have a planning forum on the other site so if one of you guyz is attached to the Central region PCA...give me an email or PM to see if we can get a few things done.

The goal is 40 cars. We get 20 at Foleys event and 20 at the ECC....so we should be at 40 if we all commit.

More logistical details will follow as things firm up and I hear info from the Central Region PCA.


Rich

I did most of my primary training at WHP. 3000' with power lines both ends.

They actually got a 727 in there - pilot got confused with BUR which has a similar heading, but is 5000' longer and another couple miles up the road. However, it went out in pieces...

You forgot to mention the nice downward slope to the runway as well. It was like landing on a skateboard ramp (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Here is a logo I am working on for the event. This is a dev version only, in jpg format. The scalable .ai file I don't think can be seen on the board.

Let me know what you think. The font was just the first one I could find that looked decent.

If we make a banner, I could put it in a horizontal layout. Though, I am not sure what Hershey park might say if we have a banner with "Hershey" on it. Maybe just MidEngine Invasion.

Can't get the attachment to load. Hold on a tic...
