Ahh... man I'm probably going to miss this one, bummer. Have a baby due May 28th. Maybe I can jam up there for a day...

It was a great time the last time it was in Lake Tahoe. I would recommend going for sure.

Hey, I told you what to do about it, you did it, it worked, you sold it. Now you have one of the nicest 914's around both running and looking! So, we expect you'll drive down this time right? confused24.gif

Yes I plan to drive it down. Assuming I can afford the trip after the Porsche Parade that is. Not to mention 2 girls in College blink.gif . Should be fine though. I'm looking forward to it.

The Expedia deal is a much better rate than the "group rate" they offered, the rate on their website was better than the "group rate" they quoted. That's why I posted it this way. Once the Expedia deal is over.....who knows.

Jeff
ConeDodger
True, but we need to figure a way to keep lot C. I'll email her with a WTF.gif is up with these rates....
jim_hoyland
Please post the link to reserve. And, is the reservations cancelable without penalty ?
biosurfer1
You just have to do a search for the dates on Expedia and the rates shown give you the deal.

Yes, you can cancel the Expedia deal up until May 13th without a penalty.

They will probably give you the same BS I've heard before... "oh, the group rate GUARANTEE's everyone in your party get's these rates, even if the regular rates go up which I'm sure they will very soon" dry.gif

Unfortunately, if we use this method of going through the cheapest route, ie: Expedia and Hotels.Com and such, as it gets closer to the date the price may go up.

I suggest you book now and get this price. You can always cancel up to 24 hours in advance I believe but do check the policy with whoever you book through...
Elliot Cannon
Holy $hit!! 99 cent tacos!!

I booked my room on hotwire.com - same deal - $225 for 3 nights + resorts fees ($15 per day).

See ya all soon.

Signed up & Girlfriend approved. looking forward to a great trip. I think it would be cool to share Photos from past 914 events over dinner. I have photos from 25 years back I will be bringing mine even if its on a zip drive.
ConeDodger
Firmed up activities so far:

Thursday evening - Welcome BBQ in the parking lot.
There might be beer but I can't officially confirm or deny that... biggrin.gif

Friday morning - Gather in the parking lot then a drive around the Southeast corner of the lake through Incline Village and down scenic and curvy Mt. Rose Highway. This goes through the Mt. Rose peak area which is the highest peak in the Sierra-Nevada Mtn Range at 8900'. Those of you worried about your carbs don't. It peaks then quickly, drops to the valley floor over a distance of about 30 miles. You will be mostly off the gas. Once down on the valley floor, we will travel a few short stop light to stop light miles down historic South Virginia Street to Need 2 Speed where we will have a little friendly competition. For those who choose to participate, (cost is $45 each) and I encourage you to, we will have a 14 lap qualifier race followed by a 16 lap main event. Save your time sheet because there will be WCR awards based on Fastest Lap and main event winner. After the fun at the track, we will eat. Basically, and this is still fluid, we will be taking over a motorsport friendly restaurant called Joe's Diner. (Your tab is on you but probably less than $15 with Joe's prices). Then off for our afternoon drive back up the Northeast side and around the lake back to the hotel.
Be sure to pick up your cards at each of the stops because the whole day is a big poker run. Best hand wins!

I haven't been on in a long time, but my local PCA chapter website said you guys were coming to our area for WCR this year.

I don't have a 914, but I am an "enthusiast", mind if I tag along? It'd be nice to drive through the mountains around here with like minded Porsche folk.

Nice! Perfect then we'll see you there. There is typically an open seat in a 914 for the drives too.
