^^ Then I should probably put the
engine back in the car and the
BMC, and new
fuel pump, and pedal cluster, and new
gauge cluster, and interior, and something I'm forgetting right now.
Don't worry, I'm a professional, and I have the week free.

Well I changed out my trans and diff fluids, new coolant and an oil change, new brakes and checked all tire pressures so I'm ready to go! Oh, and it really doesn't count- it's on my Subaru...

I just called the hotel to confirm my reservation and I'm good to go!
No 914 for me this year...mine is still sitting across the street untouched waiting for a new motor
I'll bring something German to drive, but hopefully I can bum a ride or two

I'll be leaving the Bay Area on Thursday, early afternoon.
Starting in Oakland, going down #880 to #101, then cut over to #1 near Salinas and hitting #1 near Marina.
That should put me at the Hotel around 6pm ...

We will be leaving Thursday about 5:30. Probably get there about 10-11, so most of you will be asleep (Hopefully...)
Still havent decided on the Fiesta ST or her auto Genesis Coupe turbo. Leaning heavily towards the Fiesta, but she's no good with the clutch so it'll be me driving all the time.
Gotta remind myself to put the spare back in the Fiesta...

That sounds like a good option for us landlocked mountain dwellers. The more ocean views I get the better I'm thinkin'. But others here know the roads better and that's what it really comes down to- IT'S ALL ABOUT THE ROADS!!

I'm not married to it. So far only Me and Mike (mgp4591) are known to be coming from Vegas/the South East. I can drive this route home, I have to stop in Pasadena anyways. If there is more interest in a coastal route then as long as the time frame works.
Taking Pearblossom instead of Angeles Mtns cut an hour from the drive if an earlier depart time is needed.

This event will be a blast / and as a former employer of many, the orginazation required to pull if off is a tremendous
effort. Special thanks to the org.
I am driving up Thursday and my lovely wife is following in her SUV (custom 914 tow bar install tow truck) on Friday.
Of course Larmo63 will be strutting around the grounds with his newly installed thru-hood gas cap assembly ( completed in my shop in Laguna) and well done in one session to-boot. the hole saw is headed for my hood soon.............
See you all there.
