Absolutely great event thanks to all for your hard work and planning can’t imagine how it could’ve been any better. Although I’ve been to a number of the WCR’s this was the first event that I’ve actually been able to join in with my car finally being finished and even better bringing my son Winston along after all he’s 12 years old time to get him involved.Click to view attachment

Oscar made this a “Bucket List” weekend for me. pray.gif

It was terrific to put a face to all the great people on the site. beerchug.gif

I will have to come back next year if only to see Michael enjoying his car and winning all the awards. smilie_pokal.gif

It was great meeting new people, putting actual human faces with screen names.

I'll never win any award for anything, but my raffle record speaks for itself. finger.gif

Many thanks to Oscar, his wife, Jeffrey, SoCalAndy, and Jerry's wife.

Those people worked their asses off, and made the event a truly memorable weekend.

Is there a more "Hall of Fame" 914 World current member (other than those people already in the Hall) than Oscar? The guy never stops giving and working. Many kudos to you. From the heart dude.

I had fun and we did 914s this weekend. THANK YOU!!!

To the Organizers, the Sponsors and the great folks that I finally got to meet in person...Thank you ALL for such a great weekend!

Amazing cars, so many takes on the power plants and the colors!

Everyone has pride in ownership and love the humbleness from everyone that shared your stories and for me to understand all the technical jargon!

You guys all rock! piratenanner.gif

Looking forward to future events and gatherings--- from just some of us hanging out, to getting a lot of us for a canyon, desert or mountain drives! driving-girl.gif

A huge thank you to all of the organizers who made this event such a great success.

Thanks to all of the great people in attendance and the excellent photographers.

Such a great weekend!Click to view attachment

Thanks for thinking of my car for the best wide body award (it’s the signal orange one in this shot)

Regarding setting the watch.. remove black plastic piece with a screwdriver. You will then notice the standard pocket watch, pull out stem, turn to adjust and push back in when done. Thanks again for the cool trophy!

Just wanted to chime in with some final thoughts and to thank the following people and apologies upfront if I have forgotten anyone:

Andy & Oscar as co-organizers. You couldn’t ask for a better team. Beautiful Awards, Great T-shirts, Paypal & Gmail Set Up and everything that went into making this possible.

Our lovely registration ladies Elvira & Francine for keeping us organized throughout the event.

T-Shirt Designs by @oldschool

@bdstone914 & Wes for judging and their informative tech sessions!

Our awesome event sponsors, whether in attendance or not, these guys really stepped up: 914 Rubber, 914 Werke, Driven Racing Oil, MSDS, PMB Performance, Sierra Madre & Stoddard. Thank you for your continued support of the community!

Our Route Scouts, Communications Team and Sweep Cars: @914-300hemi @914_teener @robarabian It’s no small task not to lose a single car on the way! Shout out to Cal Trans & Google Earth too!

sunroofdelete @cuddy_k @Matty900 for their photography, video & drone footage that will always keep the memories of the weekend fresh in our minds. Stand by for uploads to 914 World in the near future.

Everyone who attended from locals to those up and down the coast and beyond with special mention to the Utah crew of trailer queens and of course the east coast contingent @cuddy_k & dgfriedman @mepstein Hope you enjoyed how we roll out here!

The team of Margie & Paul for your enthusiasm and presenting us with color correct 914 pillows as gifts!

The Marriott Monrovia, Newcomb’s Ranch, Bella Serra, the CHP, Dustin Troyan & Super Car Sunday, Neptune’s Net

And of course, to spend time with @SirAndy and have our fearless leader partake in the festivities was beyond awesome and we thank you for spending the weekend with all of us.

At the end of the day its all of you and your participation that made this such a great event! Truly this was a rewarding experience to jump in with Andy & Oscar to facilitate this for the community!

Only thing left to do now is complete my project and get to enjoy my 914, it’s been too long already. Hope to see you all again on a twisty road sometime soon………

Drive safely my friends! driving.gif driving-girl.gif driving.gif

We are a unique group with a fun hobby, made all the more outstanding by the volunteers that make these events happen, who we owe a great vote of thanks to. This posting above covers all the contributions for which I am very thankful. Again, thanks; Jeffry, Oscar, Andy, Elvira, Francine for your generous efforts that made all of this possible.

I believed I saw SirAndy’s car heading north of I-5 around 4:40pm a few miles before I-580. I’m heading back to SoCal after a 4 days in Sacramento.

@ndfrigi

Yepp, that was us!

I knew it’s you @sirandy . and after seeing your car, been watching the north side if I will see more 914s like Elliot’s car. We even stop on those gas stations that north and south road has access just to see if I can see more who stop for a break. Well I didn’t see any 914 who attended WCR.

thanks again for your continued support especially for this site.

Many thanks for Oscar, Jeff and Andy. While I.ve known most of the group for a while, it is always great meeting new people and sharing their enthusiasim for these cars.

On the pre-run drive Sat while scouting for some vistas for pictures I spotted a lone Cayman with New York plates. Guy had just moved out from the East Coast for work.

We drove up to the top....enthusiastically.....and waited for the group to drive up from miles away. It was quite a sight.

I turned to him and said " you won.t see that very often" He just grinned.

Thanks for the great weekend everyone and especially the organizers, and letting me hang out.

Had a great time at the WCR. Too bad we got separated from the group on Sunday's Santa Monica Mountains drive, but enjoyed the lunch at Neptune's Nest. Drove back to the Central Valley and 100+ heat yesterday. Missing the cooler So Cal coast and mountain weather. Look forward to next year's event. Thanks to all who worked so hard to pull off this great event!

Many thanks to those who put in the work to make this happen. Especially the Ladies for joining us and softening it up around the edges.

What's the best way to upload a bunch of photos? Send them individually to the image thread?

I hope to have a new internet tomorrow. This .2mb upload speed is killing me.

I thought the drive into Wrightwood after lunch was one of the better drives I've done in quite some time.

The view from the overlook there was incredible that day.

Is there another shot with the fringe cars included? I get the idea that filling the frame with 914s looks best.

I actually liked driving in the valley under the freeway quite a bit as well even though it was a very short portion of the drive.
