Looks like well over 50 of us have signed up for this years Amelia Island Werks event. Last year several of us met up at the Gate Gas station at 2-95 and Heckscher Drive in Jacksonville and drove in together. We started meeting about an hour and a half before the event opened and headed out about an hour before opening. It was a really nice drive along the ocean with the sunrise visible to our right for some of it. If anyone is interested, join us this year. Message me if you have any questions.

I purposefully booked my hotel at the Holiday Inn Express at that location, so I plan on joining in. I do want to get to check in as early as possible so I have time for vechicle prep and cleaning .
Will be making the drive in from there on Friday and Saturday! 4 more weeks to prep!

I want to go to Amelia but I understand the Cars &Coffee is full and NLA
Is Werks open to any Porsche as a 'drive in' ?
If so, I'm seriously considering driving from New Jersey.
Any info (time, date, location, cost) is helpful
TIA
Rory

Werks judging is full, but you can still get parking in the Porsche Coral now, but only for a short time , otherwise it’s free to. One in but park on street.
Also with the Cars and coffee- it’s fully free to come in for everyone but park in stree and walk a bit- I ddI this last year no big deal- yes cars and coffee is full but only for display/judged vehicles. ( I will be in the fairway Saturday with my ‘85 914 and also Friday Werks judging.
SO pay the $25 for parking in the Coral for Friday and come in down!!!!

the problem now is hotel rooms that are anywhere near the site. I was thinking about going, but the nearest room was 20 miles away at the airport

That’s not so bad I drove in from Kings Bay last year, might still have rooms where I booked mine, I seldom stay at a HIE(but location and price was fine).
I thought you might have one of your cars on display at Werks !! Well if you do get down it would be good to see you, stop by and say hi!

So what? That's where us Peachstaters stay. Find a room ( some of us are at the Microtel) and join us.
Anyone else staying at this intersection at the Holiday inn express?
