That's just wrong! Next thing you know you'll be telling him tail draggers are 2nd rate.

Hi Jon

Jon! Where have you been? Come on down! We’ll have a special photo session for the taildragger guys featuring my old photographer!

Well, I am gonna make a run for this one. It will be about 5,000 miles round trip. Maybe I will get there and back Wife gave it the thumbs up today. She may fly to Portland. I was out at lake crescent last month and then around 101. It rained the whole time. Perfect! College days in ONP may be long gone, but still love the place. Really really want to be in the PNW driving a 914.

Is there room for people like me? I’m not 100% sure I’ll have a roadworthy 914 by then. I haven’t been on a racetrack since a couple driving schools in the 80s, and I wasn’t particularly talented at it then.

Of course. A love for these things is enough. You my friend, are all in.

I keep coming back to this post for some reason.

Wishful thinking?

All are welcome, we will be opening registration this next week, and posting up what has been finalized. Rob is soliciting donations for swag for the event.

My neighbor wants to fly his gyrocopter down, it has a Rotax 914 turbocharged engine

That’s impossible Tony!

Everyone knows you can’t turbocharge a 914!

Gig Harbor, not Tacoma

Your welcome to try my friend

MSDS always sending along door prizes to our 914 Events...hit me up on PM Rob

As AM I!

Glazed donuts and beer. Dinner of champions. That was The Dalles I think. I can usually date the year by Jeff's injuries.

Hoping to make this one with my teener

Well then, put down the popcorn. Put away the camera. Get out in the garage. Pick up a wrench and get at it!

thanks for putting this together - it's on my calendar - looking forwards to specifics! thanks again, brad k

i would love to drive portland raceway again, but a track day there Click to view attachmentmay be tough to get . . .

Going to try and make this one...

Is staying at the Grand Lodge a lock at this point? Mcmenemin's is doing a BIG project in Tacoma. Magestic old Elks Lodge.

Thankfully I have the car running again and consistently also. Just have to fine tune it some more and fix a couple of the bugs. I will most likely be bringing my camera if I go also.

June 7 - 10

Bring your wife. Our women are heavily involved with the planning so it’s likely to be an inclusive event.

For some reason this one can fly

All joking aside I’m in and looking forward to seeing everyone !!!
I’m in the hall pass is processed and signed

The wife doesn’t know yet and she won’t be happy I’m taking my two side chicks with me.

Well it’s good we’re all so open minded then!

Guys the preliminary looks good, I just confirmed the block of rooms and this looks like it's gonna be a bunch of fun. The autocross is still not able to be confirmed as the owner of the lot we want to use has it up for sale, so he isn't wanting to inhibit a sale. I'll be posting up more tonight.
