I can meet all the S-Cal Teeners in Gorman. You guys will have to leave early just to get a head of the LA traffic.

We will need to leave between 5-6 am or 10-12 to miss the LA traffic.

Earlier is my preference.
Coondog
If u leave at 10-11 then you run into Bay area traffic. It’s a long drive earlier the better.
We could stop at Harris Ranch for a stretch and a bite.
Cairo94507
If you guys stop at Harris Ranch do the BBQ across the street in the Shell Station otherwise you will get too comfortable inside Harris Ranch and be there for hours as you eat and drink..... Trust me, spent way too many nights at Harris Ranch in their Prime Steak House with friends- just great 5 star dining and service. beerchug.gif

Mark Howard and I took a test drive for the "Napa Drive", scheduled for the Friday of WCR...... I snapped a few pics for you guys.

Disclaimers:

A. Forgive his ass-dragger 911..... I promise he has a killer 914 that was afraid of the potential for pot-holed dirt roads.

B. The pics of the dirt roads and gravel are NOT on the drives. Your paint is safe (good thing we took the test drive)

And finally, the smoke in our area is almost totally gone..... fingers crossed for continued great weather leading up to the event.

OK.... now for some shots.

(More pics after this next weekend when we drive the "Coast" route.

I'm in! Reservations made, PayPal sent.

I live in SoCal, up near Magic Mountain off the 5 freeway. I plan on leaving very early (5 or 6 am). I think Mike D. and I will drive together. Others are welcome to join or even catch up or we can catch up with you. PM me and we can exchange phone numbers. I'll talk to Mike when the date gets closer and see what we're doing.

I think it would be great to all drive up together, but seems everyone is leaving different times and days, trailering or driving... If someone puts together a schedule, I'll be leaving North Hollywood early Thursday (Wed night) ?

Working on getting all the So Cal Teeners to up meet in Gorman as we are all coming front different directions with a meet up spot away from LA. Probably around 7am Thursday morning as the South Orange County people will have to be on the road no later then 5am to get ahead of the traffic.

Thanks Gorman sounds good... Keep us posted... Just developed a clutch noise, on the 914, throw out, pilot ? May have to drive the Cayman

Sounds like a great time will be had by all. My car is in a state of disassembly to fix a few electrical issues and the 789mile trip each way to Petaluma is way out of my wheelhouse to start a drive....


Have fun fellas.

What route are the SoCal guys taking on Thursday morning up to Petaluma? I-5 is pretty boring, anyone going Hwy 1 or 101?

I was planning on I5. Last time some people took 101/1 to Rennfest and were stuck behind RV's for days. I personally don't think its worth it. It's already going to take over 8 hours taking I5 from south orange county.

**** Update ****

**** Update ****

We are working hard to get the schedule finalized..... we hit our first major snag with the location for the starts for each of the drives. No biggie..... we were able to find an even better location.

Just waiting to get approval for the location.... then I can email all the attendees.

Drives..... we will have two (2) drives, a "Napa" drive and a "Coastal" drive. As of today, we have driven both..... and they are amazing!

We are looking forward to hosting all of you..... the weather has been incredible..... cross your fingers that it remains this nice.

Again, thank you all for being so patient..... it's all coming together..... the schedule will be emailed early this week.

Just came "down" Hwy 1 and 101 2 weeks ago, it makes the trip "much longer" and up you can't see the coastline at many points, down is better... IMHO

Meet up spot for all the SoCal gang will be the McDonalds off the 5 fwy in Gorman at 7am. There is a Shell station across the street for a fuel top off.
We can decide from there where are next stop is, Harris Ranch or other ??

I think the plan is just get there as fast as we can
