Hows this going have we made it yet?

Sorry Scott,

I missed this thread until today. If you are still collecting let me know, and I will Paypal ASAP!!!

Joe, I bought a brick of notepads once, but this brick is better (but still not smokeable ). And thanks for what you did, but you are ruining my image you know <_<

one week later....

I don't think I've rec'd your money Mike.

el total, por favor

YES!!!


In fact, we now have so much now that,
John/Vegas Racer
& I have determined that we can get a SECOND Brick.


So PLEASE, keep Donating. Or start Donating.
Or, remember to send in your donation that you just haven't gotten to yet!

Two, Two bricks are better than one

Oops sorry, a couple of you asked for totals, huh?



PayPal: $332.00 (after the fees)
Checks: $265.00

Total: $597.00

Our 1st Brick: 12x12 = $500


Our 2ndBrick: 8x8 = $250 (1st choice for a 2nd)
4x8 = $150 (2nd choice for a 2nd)

8x8 has 6 lines of Text
4x8 has 3 lines of Text.


NOTE: the $597 does NOT include my own personal donation.... I was going to make up any difference between what we've rec'd AND the cost for two Bricks,
one $500 & one $150, until......

I mentioned to VegasRacer that we were that close and I wanted to get a 2nd Brick. John(V.R.) said why don't we go for a 8x8 2nd Brick, see if a little more money comes in, which it sounds like it will now. THANKS EVERYONE!


We think the 2nd Brick should talk about the 914's
Racing Heritage/Victories.

Examples:
PORSCHE 914
LE MANS 24 HOUR
1970 CHAMPION

Or with SIX lines of Text:

PORSCHE 914/6GT
24HR CLASS WINS:
1970 LE MANS
1971 DAYTONA
WWW.914CLUB.COM


Didn't a 914 win a Rally, the Carrera de Rally or something like that?

Some races 914's won

http://www.pbase.com/9146gt/image/25226951

Per http://www.vpracing.com/The_Cars/the_cars2.html

In 1970, Porsche introduced the competition version of its mid-engine, 914/6 roadster, the 914/6GT that won its class at Le Mans. The next year in the hands of Peter Gregg and Hurley Haywood, it would claim the inaugural Camel GT championship, going on to later win several Camel GTU crowns as well. The model was also active in SCCA National competition, and in international rallying, although it never achieved the success in either venue that it did in professional, high-end international circuit competition.

We are so close to the extra $250 we need for the 2nd 8 x 8 brick.
It looks like we only need another $153 to make it happen.
Having 6 lines of text to play with would be great.
The limit of only 15 characters per line makes it tough.

Here is some more 914-6 GT Race history with links to results.
Any ideas or suggestion for the 6 lines of text are welcome.
Be sure to comply with the 15 letters / spaces per line rule.

The first brick is a 12 x 12 for $500 with our logo.
The final vote is in and this is what it will look like.

An option for the 8 x 8

THAT is NICE John.

me Likey alot!!!

The only other major class win for the GT was the sweep of 1st, 2nd and 3rd at the 1970 Marathon de la Route. It was held at the Nurburgring so it is kinda covered along with the victory in the 1000km at that track in 1971. I tried but there was no way to abbreviate it so it would fit in 15 letters or less and still make sense.

There is enough space in line 3 to have a space in LE MANS (or LEMANS) if you think that is better. The same for the dashes between the events. Either with or without, your call.

Would the first line be better as 'PORSCHE 914-6' ?

Come on guys (and gals) just a few more bucks and we are there.

1) I think I like LE MANS better, but only because ALL the letters have to be in CAPS.


2) I like 914/6GT actually. Can you make that work John?


3) Yeah, c'mon, just a little more.
Give 'til it hur, er, feels good.

Like this? Do you want a dash or a slash on 914 6 ?
Are you sure we want GT back to back on line 1 and line 2?

Just sent $

Regarding the slash, makes no diff to me. It seems like on the cars, it's 914-6
but in print from the factory it's more like 914/6
right?


and

you're right, I think it would look better to NOT have GT on both lines.
Nice call Vegas Racer.

Scott You got mail

Hey! I DID Paypal $20 a while ago

I just sent PayPal $ again.

Paypal Sent

You know what GTeener, I thought you did too!

I made up that Paid & Unpaid last nite from home, went thru every single Paypal/Email I got and didn't see your payment.
I didn't go thru the Paypal site though, I'll do that again.

If in fact I've rec'd 2 payments from you, want me to send one of them back to you?


you can PM me that if you want.

Yes please.

Scott, FYI GWN7 is Bruce Napier.

Jen

BUMP

if you guys do this just do me a favor and spell

Nürburgring

right, will'ya?
Andy

PS: notice the ü ???

Paypal sent

Spunone you have been added to the Paid List.

thanks.



HEY....
what do you guys/gals prefer....

914-6
or
914/6
for the 2nd Brick.


Slash / or Dash -

I would say dash but that is just me. I dash everywhere.

I'm in paypal sent

I do know how to spell it properly with the umlauts.
I don't think that option is available.
I guess all we can do is ask and if they say no . . . . . oh well.

From the SCRAMP brick ordering web page


Here are the two final options (with the umlauts).
With the slash or with the dash in 914 6 ?

Sorry, This one slipped by. I'm in paypal

After careful deliberation . . . . .

I say the slash.

We are already using a dash for a different purpose on the brick.

slash

Ju no get my money mang? I sent 2 days ago.

i get an "Invalid Syntax Error", what ever that means, when i type in the yahoo address. i got 2 inquiries regarding STICKERS!!! so i will include the $12 with the $20 out of the checking account for a total of $32. it will go out in today's mail. STICKERS!! STICKERS!! STICKERS!! did i mention STICKERS!!?

STICKERS!!!

Payment of $25 finally sent!

I vote Slash.

Im excited that we get a second brick!

Slash.

Boy am I Glad/Happy that I read THIS before I put in our order, I was going with the dash (-)

But you ALL have spoken, and our 2nd Brick will have the
SLASH!!!


914/6


I'm NOT supposed to be online right now.
I will move the Updated PAID list to the 'last' page here, somewhere around 1.30pm-ish.

I'm sure if Redshift was around he would also vote for SLASH.

Why the /6 or -6? Who cares about a 6 anyway? Again, as before, forgotten the mighty 4. You might as well join the pinky lifters.

I *think* that all, if not most, of the victories listed on our 2nd brick were done by 914's powered by Sixes, that's why?

914-4's are awesome too, no doubt.

I know - I just wanted to be antagonistic as I usually am. And to remember all those who have campaigned the dauntless 4s for years in SCCA and other venues.

We went with 914/6 on the 2nd Brick.

AND

we got the Umlauts, the 2 dots above the letter U in Nurburgring. So that's REAlly cool.
