Bump to remind that registration is now open. When answering how many Okteenerfests I had attended I discovered Steve hadn't allowed a check box for the 2010 event, which may have been the first?
2010 was MUSR in Vonore... my first 914 event. Travelling all the way to Arkansas for MUSR 2011 was the true catalyst for Okteenerfest - I wondered why there was no event in the southeast with all the mountain roads available. A small group drive in 2012 was a sort of litmus test for Okteenerfest which then became an official event in 2013.
Now ya know
I have the poster hanging on my office wall titled"Teeners on the Tail" and dated Fall 2010 that was my reference. I assume you made that poster, as your graphic work is always outstanding, and I'm a fan!
I believe I know that car on that poster??
Steve is the Man!!!
And I have a few found memories too...
Like collecting the MUSR Crankshaft award in Vonora!!
And I'm also the proud owner of a very coveted Jackstand Award from 2014?!
Looking forward to all the great times coming our way in Sept...
Huge Thanks to All the Crew that have made this a GREAT EVENT!

Betty and I will be there. We just finished signing up and have a room reserved.
We are taking the southern route via I-20. It is a little longer (Like 10 minutes), but it avoids the broken bridge on I-40 in Memphis.

I think it was meant to be Ma Duce, and it was just a green car to put it on.
But talk to the artist.

hoping to be there, my motor is not yet functional
. but parts should be in soon so we'll see ... plenty of time before i have to start to panic .
most everything should be in before this coming weekend, so in the mean time most of my spare time reading is looking over other engine build threads and several member's videos of type4 motor building. ......

Any interest in the swap meet? I've got something going on most of Friday, so I'll miss the drive. If the swap meet will fly, I'll be in a Ford F150 that identifies as a 914, maybe a trailer load? Not sure if I'll still have the tail dragger Targa then.

You never know what might show up at a swap meet.
I plan on gathering up some of my extra 914 bits and see if they can find a good home.

To add to what trojanhorsepower said...
Thursday is arrival and check in starting mid afternoon or so. For those who arrive in time, a quick sunset drive ~7:00 or so (have to check sunset times) is planned.
Friday's drive, Saturday's car show and evening banquet are the key activities along with swap meet and tech sessions (times to be determined).
Sunday has no planned activities.
