If doing an event in Tahoe, I would suggest the Cal-Neva if they are reopened by then. We attended a MiniMeet there in 2011 and it worked out fine. They even provided a separate parking area for us.

Plus the place has a cool Frank Sinatra vibe...

My favorite. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2rDb4Ur2dw

If it is in Central Cal I.ll go. ..2019. Wish I could help out in So Cal but life has been full this year.....been a helluva year and it aint over yet.

I was hoping that we may go a but further south, but Tahoe works too.

Still open just need an organizer

I'm not sure who the genius was that hacked my account and posted that but I'm pretty sure it wasn't you.

I was hoping this as well.....I thought Temecula was great....The wineries while not as good....have some great drives.

Was hoping Oscar would step up

I think one further south is overdue ...

Camarillo was a great site back in 2005; near the coast, Malibu and Mulholland Dr, freeway access and far enough away from LA to avoid the gridlock.

Impressive attendance!!

If Oscar steps up I'll assist.

Montery was awesome. Location plus the sorts of amenities we love. it's not every day you get to get on Lagun Seca.

Somebody is missing from that list ...

Hmmm....,.more research needed

05' was a jam packed weekend.

As a former long time Temecula resident (74-96), Temecula would be a good spot, though it's sort of light on Hotels. Tons of great drives (Palms to Pines, Mt. Palomar, etc), maybe even take Hwy 395 down to Stone Brewing for a tour. Though I have to admit, traffic is a bitch down there now. Let me know what I can do to help, and hell, while I'm at it, Rob, if you need help for Tahoe, Col. Sanders is here to help you too! LOL

I would do what I can to help, probably more limited to behind the scenes stuff, but if we have someone step up to put it together there aer a few that will help.

Quite a lot of people actually are missing from that list considering the people I remember being there.

Yes....some have moved on to the next life....

You guys are sure making the WCR 2020 seem interesting and might be worth an east to west coast trip. There might even be enough time between the WCR and Okteenerfest for some recovery/repair time.

What if 2020 was even bigger...

That would be veey cool.

Wouldn't be very "West Coast".

Thats a cool idea
If Mark wants to step up and plan this, I will be there.

Unless you look at it from Europe/Germany, in which case this whole continent is all just one big "West Coast" ...

It's still west of the Miss

Why isn't there an arrow from Minnesota

It's the west COAST ramble.

Could be the west last of the Colorado river

So...,does anyone have plans for the 2019 WCR?

It sounds like Rob is the only one to volunteer.

2019 in Lake Tahoe?

We get this every year Don. Someone says let’s have it in Solvang, someone else says let’s do San Diego! All great ideas. The problem is, someone has to plan it. I’d be very happy if someone said let’s do Solvang and I’ll plan it. I’ll wait until the end of the month, one week, then it will be Tahoe and I’ll plan it.

There is a good bit of work that goes in to planning these and I’d be perfectly happy to have someone step up and have it in (insert name of place), until then, Tahoe is in my back yard, I’m willing...

Let’s do Yosemite again!!

Yosemite or Tahoe? No contest...but someone has to step up, big! Accommodations, costs, etc. can also be a challenge. I know you were poking the bear but Yosemite has very few equals - in the world!

Funny but that was the destination for 2017, but tioga pass was closed, so we had to hang around Mammoth. I went skiing one of the days and had a blast anyways. I used to live in Stockton and drove the 914 to Yosemite on many occasions in my youth. I once spun the 914 at least 5 spins on black ice and ended up in a ditch on the way up there one year. This was in the late 70’s when I was much younger and had no fear.

The ONLY upside of the big Winter (and pass closings!) was record melt provided to historic water falls in Yosemite. At least according to the Park Rangers...this picture was taken a couple days after WCR last year. Amazing place...

Tony

So if you want to step up and organize just say the word.
Mark

I wish I could. Maybe in 10 years when I retire. I do appreciate the organizers and will attend if it’s convenient. I had a blast at Mammoth WCR and the last Route 66

:So cal it is.. thanks for stepping up Steve ! Qarl:

When and if SoCal is the choice it will need to be some place N of LA like San Simeon or E of LA like Big Bear/Lake Arrowhead or Temecula/Idyllwild. There are plenty of motels in and around Temecula but they can get pricey in the Wine Country. Idyllwild has many small motels 6-10 rooms and 2 motels w/ more than 30. That being said, if Idylwilld were selected and one central hotel was required it would need to be reserved 12-18 months in advance. I'm not familiar with the availability in the Big Bear area but I'd suppose the demand would be greater. Palm Springs is another possibility but we would need to get our butt's out of there early and return late or face the Hellacious heat.

So How about we get some guys together at Rennsport, have some beers and come up with a plan?

Great idea

Temecula traffic sucks, double suckage in a 914, at 4pm.

Just a recap on 2018. after Tshirt and hat sales have closed out we have $833.90 in the kitty. Some of that was also due to a donation for sales of a rotisserie the Rhodyguy helps put together. Refresh my memory who donated it. I want to thank them too.

All in all a successful event on the ledger. We did also donate some into event, but really it was all of you that made it work.

Thanks to all of you for helping to make this happen.



-Mark

Panel Billy(billy) then greenie(Curt) used it for a while then 914werke(rich) hauled it away for sixnotfour(Jeff) to pick up at a latter date. I did the easy part.

A suggestion:

We stopped MUSR at #13 when we only had 5 cars show up. So how about we resurrect MUSR at #14 for 2020? Have it in eastern Colorado because the center of the US sucks for driving roads. Advertise it heavily on here, And see if we can get a LOT of 914s from both coasts to show up.

Okteenerfest, WCR, RRC and the rest take a 1 year hiatus to do the 2020 event.

And we make it a little more than 1 weekend to encourage everyone to show up.

I think over 200 914s in one spot would get the attention of Porsche North America.

And it would be one HELL of a party!!!!!

Eastern Colorado?? I would definitely pass. Don't think many would even consider eastern Colorado.

Have been to teenerfest, Rt66 and WCR, and it sure would be nice to party in the Rockies in the middle. Then my drive would be shorter but we would still have serious slopes to make the drives what they oughta be.

Really depends on how east. To the eastern border, or east of the divide.

You know what would suck about the hiatus thing? The plans I already have made for 2019 in Tahoe...

Eastern Colorado is east of Denver, not much different than Kansas.
