I would like to take this time to invite anyone that has any interest in 914’s to come to the Howard Dranow Memorial West Coast Ramble. You do not have to own a 914 to attend this event. The agenda will be as follows.

Friday evening the 15th of May we will have a Meet and Greet at The Double Tree Inn in Irvine, Headquarters for the event.

Saturday morning starts off with Cars and Coffee, which is only 4 blocks away. After that we go back to the hotel for preparation for a drive to the beach and a Team NARP Bar-B-Q. Then we return to the Hotel for the 914 R/C Car Challenge. Then you are free for the evening.

Sunday we drive to Lancaster to The Inn of Lancaster for the Show and Shine and Tech Inspection in preparation for The Streets of Willow and the Awards Ceremonies. We have about 20 awards to hand out. Sometime durning the weekend we will have an auction and a Raffle.

Monday is Track Day. We have rented The Streets of Willow and have the track from 8am to 5pm. Corner workers will be provided so the only time you spend on the track is in a car.

I would like to thank Howard (God rest his soul) for the inspiration for this event as we are following the agenda from his event in 2005.
This event is being hosted by Team NARP and more information will be posted here and at Pelican as it becomes available.

Got an address for the Irvine hotel? That the one near El Toro?

I'm in for everything except maybe the hotels: A buddy lives in Anahiem Hills (not real close), and I live kinda near Willow Springs. Looking forward to a fun event!!

Gint, you've been watching too much HGTV. You are getting good with all these fancy colors.

Oh...I'll be there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I will be there for the Friday night social, Saturday and Sunday (gotta work on Monday). Since I live about a mile from the hotel, let me know if you need any temporary storage (I have a smallish garage)

Joe and all thanks for the work you're putting into this. I will be there with my daughter and possibly my son.

My daughter and I are going to take a few days and drive down the coast. We've already started planning the itinerary.

Man am I looking forward to this.

Hey Joe,

Sounds like a blast! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

A couple of questions...

I'll be driving Greenie ( stock 74 )down from Seattle, what will be the requirements for me to participate at Willows?

Will I need a safety inspection, and what specific equipment will I need, helmet etc?

What is the cost for the track participation? Cost for the Ramble?

How soon do we need to book our hotel rooms ?

Thanks for organizing this, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Looking forward to May!
