Is there information on this elsewhere, couldn't find any, like cost, how to register.
Tried a search couldn't find anything but for past years. But I am search challenged.

I drove my car 500 miles last weekend it should make it to Utah. driving.gif

Thanks

Reservation made ... get with it you pikers!!! angry.gif

Am looking at a second run .... Beaver to Bryce Canyon Nat'l Park .... 176 miles total ...
Lunch at the Hungry Coyote ... best ribs anywhere

Problems:

1.) Anybody younger than me has to pay $25 for entrance into the Nat'l Park

2.) Return route is same as the way in.

Oh well ... gonna stare some more at Google Earth.

Hey Jeff, we're not organized enough yet to determine fees other than t-shirt cost ($25 which is separate - see t-shirt ordering thread or talk to Ferg to tell him what size you want). Lunch tabs will likely be taken care of by each individual at lunch. If we end up doing a dinner that is a flat amount for the group, I'll collect money at RRC.

Just tell me you're attending - that's your registration. beerchug.gif

Thanks for the info, might try and make it. Been wanting to drive the 914 to Albuquerque to visit the Grandkids, could make this a stop on the way or way back.
Turns out beavers exactly half way. I'm going to plan for it....I'll let you know for sure as it gets closer. driving.gif beerchug.gif

Back to the top .... if for no other reason than to irritate the World members.

How could you possibly miss an event where the world's largest ice cream cones are right across the street from the hotel?

How could you pass up a pool that actually has water in it?

How 'bout a hotel that doesn't lock the front door at 7 PM?

An Erc ... you'll love this place. Front desk clerk is named Jasmine .... whoooyaaa!

Even though you are over 62 and have a Senior Pass for all the Nat'l Parks, I made a rule that Retired Vegan UPS Pilots MUST PAY
. I have tremendous influence in gubermint circles.

I am over 62 and an asshole so I get a free pass!! lol-2.gif

If you're going to Goodwood, you better post a crap load of pictures immediately on return or sooner. biggrin.gif

Scott, don't forget you must dress appropriately, ie period correct. A group from the Shelby American collection went a few years back and had a fantastic time.They ran several european vintage races, which are not gentleman races. They are balls to the wall but with old expensive cars. Joe, who helped me with Mustang project was on the pit crew at the Spa race.

I plan on dressing like "Twiggy" - or Mary Poppins.......

Make your reservations. Order a "T" shirt. Drive into Beaver. Like most Red Rocks Classics, getting there is half the fun. Spectacular scenery. I might bring my mountain bike. That should be good for a few laughs.
MoveQik
Are we there yet? I need my 914 fix and the weather here sucks. I need some Beaver.
SharonG
If you have Netflix, watch season 6, episode 9, of "How I Met Your Mother" for a beaver-related episode. It has a catchy beaver song and everything. The episode title is "Glitter". beerchug.gif
SLITS
Since we may not have "giveaways or prizes" this year (I'm tired of asking for freebies), I have proposed a food fight at the awards dinner much as seen in "Blazing Saddles" ... pies, mashed potatoes, butter, frijoles ...

And at the mention of fijoles, I would heartily endorse a bean eating episode around a campfire. That should please the Vegan Elleyot. We can have Mongo as a guest of honor. Matches are optional.

I'd be happier if beaver were taken off the map completely. Pretty sure that speed trap exists just so the stromberg.gif hole cops that work there have a place to run amuck. sheeplove.gif sheeplove.gif sheeplove.gif sheeplove.gif sheeplove.gif

I have made the drive from between So Cal and SLC at least 15 times. Only place I have ever had a problem with cops was Beaver. They will pull you over for doing 73 on I-15 in the middle of nowhere, and they will make it a mandatory court appearance even if you live out of state and tack on warrants and tons of fines if you don't show. Try calling them to sort it out and the only person that can help you is the judge (the only one they have) but he can never take your call as he is always in court.

bunch of sheeplove.gif ing a-holes
anyways *rant off*

The drive itself sounds nice though, just realize what you are getting into down there. who knows, maybe its gotten better since the last time i made the drive.

Awards are being manufactured by John Peterson.



Since I have been handed this project without adequate training or adult supervision - I have made the arbitrary and unilateral decision to change some of the usual award classes:

Best of Show. drooley.gif

Most Original 914. first.gif

Most Creative Custom Mod. sawzall-smiley.gif

Cleanest 914. chowtime.gif (The Ferg Memorial)

Long Distance. driving.gif

Best Non NARP. cool_shades.gif (The James Dean Memorial - Rebel Without a Car)

I usually do what I want so I'm going to do something different and not put myself first. I gotta do one of these every once in awhile.

Same here. Called and left my first name and phone # for the group reservations girl to get back to me. She called a few days later, asked what kind of room I wanted and my zip code. No full name, no CC, no confirmation #. I guess I've got a reservation? confused24.gif
