Many people from the 914 Club have worked diligently to bring you this 914 WCC 2004, and we are excited!

The event webpage at the link below is the most current information about the event. Only a few of the finer points remain to be finalized, but we are almost there. We wanted to give you the maximum time to make plans to join us.

You might wait a day or two to contact the Pruneyard Inn for reservations, they may still be processing the paperwork for our group.

Please be sure to check back on or after March 19 for the registration materials.

See you there! Help make this the largest gathering of 914s in one place anywhere in 2004!!!

i'm looking at a map. a few years back my wife and i were in s.j and we rented a miata. while driving up 1 from santa cruz we went east on hw 84 to cut back to the bay area. the road from Skylonda to woodside was a real fun drive. is it called Sand Hill rd? is this a road we might want to consider?

Thats one of many incredible Bay Area 914 roads Kevin. We won't have time to do that particular road during the WCC, this year. But next year, if the event happens then (and I hope this will become an annual event), we will plan for a road tour that may include that route or others just as superb...

Skyline and 84 are popular routes for rice rockets and porsches alike.

Be assured there will be plenty of curves on the AX course. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif)

Will the AX require stuff like tech inspection and helmets? I know a lot of people would probably want to participate in the AX that have never done AX before (like me). Having a pre event tech checklist and helmets available for rent/borrow might be a good idea.

The autox will require an on-site tech inspection. Any safe, roadworthy car will pass. Generally, it includes:

- battery is properly fastened down
- firm brake pedal
- front wheel bearings properly adjusted
- no excessive oil leaks
- throttle return spring present and functioning
- adequate rubber on tires (no cording).
- M or SA helmet with SNELL 95 or later sticker.
- probably a couple other items I'm forgetting

Helmets will be available as loaners - but if you already have one, bring it because we will probably be short on loaners and will need to rotate through loaner helmets as people drive.

We will have instructors available to ride with those who haven't autocrossed before. The whole event will be geared toward the fact that many participants will be first timers.

Demick's list is very comprehensive. If you are unsure about the condition of your car, have someone take a look at it. The most common problems that cause a tech inspection fail are: 1) loose battery 2) loose wheel berrings 3) brake issues and 4) sticking throttle.

Dont forget to take extra things out of your car. Wear comfortable clothing. Bring sunblock and water, and be ready to go that morning.

If you've never autocrossed before and would like to try one beforehand, visit GGR and LPR's websites for N Cal autocross events, or you local PCA region.

Its always a great event to see 914s in competition.

Looks great guys! Nice job.

I guess the hopes for one of CA's fine road courses did not materialize - bummer! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I just found out that our family reunion has been moved forward from August to July 4. Hope I can manage both so close together.

San Fran in June & Illinois in July. Just wish I could fit everyone in the teener.
