I finished the GT lid.....I have the GT muff ready, just waiting on the install of the motor. THAT is outta my hands.
Click to view attachmentThe back problem required that I have a 3rd party do that part. Weeelllll, it's down to the last week or more. The ride is 9 hours away, so my close to WCR residency is blowing up in my face.
It also needs a windshield. $350 plus installation down there, $240 installed up here.
IT DOES have a tow hitch on the front, so I can flat tow it home...

For those of you who are wondering about the weather - the average high during WCR2010 Teeners at Tahoe is expected to be
64 degrees. The average low is something you will want to pay attention to if you are a ramp rat and want to spend the late evenings drinking and chatting... The average low will be just north of freezing at
38 degrees. Now since we plan on being on top of the ramp which is a large mass of concrete that will have absorbed heat all day, that might not be as big a problem as it sounds. Bottom line, bring a jacket and some gloves for the late night non-event of drinking and bullshitting on the ramp...
There is a 10% chance of precipitation on Saturday and you will probably be leaving Tahoe on Sunday under cloudy sky.

You should meet up with our caravan in Sacramento. I think you might be the only one there at 2pm... Caravan leaves Sacramento around 11:30am. Then we take the long way up the mountain...

I was looking at the Havey's web page and took a few of the virtual tours, can you explain what the ramp is and where its located.

May 9 2010, 09:01 AM
Anyone ever stay at Harveys? If you have a choice when you check-in, what block of rooms would be more desirable for the WCR?
What about car trailers & tow vehicles....any idea where they need to go or are they stored near our cars?
After point F on the caravan, you can go directly on route 50 or take the longer twisties route as planned. Is anyone going to try to keep-up with the carvan teeners that is towing on the "twisty" backside route?

I think the take off ramp is located on the waters edge of the lake and the landing ramp is the one located on the right. Hopefully the lights will still be on when "
That Guy"decides his car is fast enough to clear the gap.
Click to view attachmentAlthough I could be wrong so you're better checking with one of the organizers to be sure.

88 normally has some traffic and not all that many passing areas. I imagine we'll stop at some of the pull outs too, so if you got lost in the dust you'd be able to catch up from time to time. Really though, I don't see it being a race up the mountain, though I'm not leading the group.

Here's the best I can do. We'll be meeting at the top of the parking structure, but trucks/trailers will probably not be allowed up there, so you'll be parking behind the structure.

I had a great time in Tahoe this weekend.
I must say however I was very much disappointed at the dismal attendance at this years WCR. It seemed like I was the only 914 in attendance. I can only hope that the planners of next years event do a much better job of organizing.

OK, I'm an idiot. I knew WCR was the 3rd weekend of the month yet the calendar in my head only saw four weekends in May. I knew I had other things the last and next to last weekends so haven't paid too close attention to all things WCR. But in talking to Computers4Kids yesterday I suddenly realized there was an extra full weekend in May and I had to mentally rearrange my internal calendar. The clouds parted and I realized that I was free for the WCR weekend!
It's too late to plan vacation from work, but I am now registered and will be arriving Saturday morning. Pending unforseen circumstances we will be driving the 914. Hopefully I haven't used up my quota of troublefree miles since in the last month or so we have taken the car to Sacramento (Conedodger's coffee & donut Porsche reunion), Sonoma (McMark's Original Customs), Las Vegas (visit the kids) and Visalia (Computers4Kids).
Looking forward to meeting everyone else!
