The Red Rock Classic in Moab, Utah is less than 3 months away.
Watch for an offical thread in the next few days.
We are working out the last few details.
Plan now to attend. The event will be September 23, 24, 25.

This poll will close at noon on Thursday July 7th. Soon after that I will start a new thread to take orders for the winning shirt. These 100% cotton jerseys are made by Champion. The design on the back will be printed in black and red. The logo on the front is all red. The price will be $15 each (plus shipping if you will not be at the RRC to pick yours up). Thanks to Jeroen for the excellent graphic design.

EDIT: If you can not see the photos for the shirt choices, scroll down a few post for alternate images.

WOW, I got in the first vote! I voted based upon the description, but do we get to see Jeroen's "excellent graphic design"?

I don't know what the problem is.
Sometimes I can see the image, and sometimes I just get little red X's in a box.
Here they are again.

Grey

Veeerrrryyyy nice! I really like that kind of shirt and the artwork looks great! Normally I hate the whole Kokopelli thing, but I love this one!

You and your sons are planning on comming up to Moab for the RRC, right Ernie?

wish I could come, but put me down for a Tee!

great looking shirts!

who do i pay and when for two xl shirts (either color scheme) + shipping to 20837???

these are cool!

John and Jeroen,

you both out did yourselves.
excellent looking..

really excellent!

brant

those look sweet!

Sean,

why don't you come out?
I can put you up at my place if you want?
brant

Brant,
at this point I can't commit to anything late summer/early fall. That is the period of time I'll be moving back to LA. If things work out, though, I'd love to come. I really dig Colorado, especially little towns like Ouray. I hope to retire then one day.

mmmm.. Ouray.

ever been in the underground hotsprings in Ouray?
"vapor caves"

fun
fun
fun

So Sean, if your coming through on the move, or if you can make the event.. or anything really...
just let me know.

Me for sure, don't know yet about the rest. The prior weekend is the Arizona Bus Club Jerome Jamboree. We'll be there so I don't know if they can make 2 weekends in a row.

John:

I won't be able to make the event, but I will buy a few shirts. Great job as usual!

Dan

Weekend VOTE!

Sooo... did the official Red Rock Classic thread get started yet? I'm trying to squeeze this in between Family visiting, Telluride Blues & Brews, San Juan BrewFest, Oktoberfest, Nico's birthday and our first anniversary. (September sux as an event month for me, but how could I pass up Moab?)
BTW... Bring your own beer. You can't get drunk in UT for all the $$ you've got. Darn liquor controlling Mormons!!!!

Grey wears better for greasy handed wrenchers....the CWs can get the Lily White.

Sure it has been started. It just hasn't been posted yet.
Jeroen is putting the final touches on the slick looking graphics package.
The only hold up are a few minor details regarding the dinner plans.

Here are the basics of the Red Rock Classic
When - Friday September 23rd to Sunday September 25th.
Where - Moab Utah. The host hotel is confirmed. You can call The Aarchway Inn at (435) 259-2599 to book your room NOW. Be sure to tell them you are with 'The Porsche Club' to get the special $80 rate.
What - Twisty tours and fun runs with some of the most spectacular scenery on the planet. Locations include Arches National Park, The Colorado River, La Sal National Forest, Canyonlands National Park, and more. 'Rise and Shine' Car Show. Awards Banquet. And the list goes on.
How Much - The exact registration fee has not be set. It will probably be about $75 and will include ALL MEALS except for lunch on the 1st and last days. Best of all - NO track fees!
Why - Fun, fun, fun. If I have to explain - you wouldn't understand.

bump...

From Phx Mapquest says to take I17 to Flag, then go on the 40 to the 191 on up.

Looking at a map, it seems that 17, then 89, then 191 would be faster. Any insight on this? Thinair, is 89 a decent road?

This run is close to my birthday so I might use the ol' "it's a gift to myself" excuse to get a hall pass.

This event is going to ROCK !
(pun intended)

89's a great road... drove down to Phoenix in Jan via that route.

White BTW.

Didn't someone have a 4x4 with a teener body on it? That would be rippin for Moab.

we only have 35 votes on this one, and i am expecting at least 125 people to show up.

so...............

My route from Phoenix would be I-17 to Flagstaff, then U.S. 89 to U.S. 160 through Tuba City and Kayenta and then North on U.S. 191. Both 89 and 160 are fine roads. 89 has lots of passing lanes on it (you DO NOT want to pass on this road without a passing lane) and 160 tends to be 2 lane, but with not that much traffic.

I've driven both ways. 191 between I-40 and 160 is interesting but there are lots of little settlements that you slow down for. I remember feeling like when I was just getting going I had to slow down. Whatever speed you might gain by taking I-40 to 191 would definitely be lost on 191. 191 is also just 2 lanes with no passing lanes, but also not much traffic. Besides, the mileage is greater by taking I-40/191 than 89/160/191.

Either way you are going to be a long way from AAA so make sure your car is ready, but then it's probably no worse than driving I-10 from Phoenix to L.A.

A caravan is definitely in order!

Great info, thanks. I'll get the wheels turning at home to see if I can get away for the weekend.

Looks like I am in for sure. I can't wait!

Made my hotel reservation today!

Just to make sure I've got this straight. The registration fee WILL NOT INCLUDE the T-shirts? I'll be in for 2 shirts, but I don't want to send the PayPal if I've got this wrong and it will be part of the registration fee.

cool Ernie,

can't wait to meet you there...
you've got the info correct.

I think registration is going to be 70 bucks.
it will include 3 meals

but it will not include the hotel or the shirt
I think John has a shirt ordering thread going (different from this one)

The registration web page is coming real soon.
we had a technical difficulty, but it is basically all done and you will see it this weekend or so.

Toast and I will be there Thursday early evening. We don't know if we'll have a 914 to drive but we'll be there to have some fun, fun, fun.
Please I'd like to order 2-large T-shirts.

Thank you.
Linda

PARTY

Go to this thread to place your shirt order.

You mean that Toast isn't gonna have that seat adjustment thing worked out by September? She's gotta work faster!

Surely Joe's got a teener he can loan you Linda. You took good care of the last one!
