Ian and I were out previewing the menu and meeting the owners of The Notch Pub in Kamas today. It’s a hard job but... must be done! huh.gif biggrin.gif

Only 4 more slots left before we go to the waitlist!

We currently have 71 guests and 42 cars signed up.

Payment or cancellations will be due by 8/15 to give our waitlist friends time to make accommodations at our host hotel. Thanks everyone!

Dave Morton from Maddog Motorsports comes through with a slew of items for the Raffle. There’s an RSR style sway bar stiffening kit, camber shims (you need them, you just don’t know it) and heater block off plates.

We use Dave’s chassis stiffening kits and engine mounts on virtually every -6 build here at PMB. smilie_pokal.gif

Julie and I are all paid up and now we need to figure out what rental car to use. No 914s on Drive Share and Turo has mostly SUVs. There’s a Panamera for reasonable $ but might as well drive a Kia than to bring a slug to a teener event

I am registred, coming from Longmont, Colorado. I just picked up a car after years of looking one! The drive makes me a little nervous from Northern Colorado.

You have plenty of time to make sure the car will make the trip. Drive it, that will answer a lot of your questions.

Very true and I have been getting some drive time and been fixing some stuff as it comes up.

- Hope to have the SS fuel line swap done before, I grabbed them from Tangerine Racing.
- Maybe the Fuel Pump Relocation too but so far all has been ok with vapor lock and such.

I'm out. And I emailed Eric to let him know my space is available.
Apologies to those hoping to see the Ferrari build - you'll just have to come to WCR 2023!

Spokeworks comes through with their amazing LED taillight conversions. A few lucky 914 owners are going to walk home with a set of these!

And the World of Speed is canceled as well...3" of water on the lanes isn't the best way to break records.
We also have Octoberfest happening up at Snowbird if we get a breath during all that our hosts have planned. It's a beautiful drive and there's good authentic food with music. We've got it all right here!

Booked solid again. All paid and all done. Live band, sound and lights, 2 dinners, 2 lunches, door placards, t-shirts, coffee & donuts for 80+ people, employees to staff and help run the event all cost money which is why the minimal fee (that still didn't cover the expenses). So, a freebie isn't really free at that point.

Some schedule changes gang! Some will cheer and I'm certain a few may jeer.

First off... mother nature's squarely in charge and she has different plans for our "Ultimate 914 Group Shot". As previously mentioned in this thread, things have been a little "wet" shall we say. We know a lot of you wanted to see the Salt Flats. That said, due to extremely unusual rain in Wendover, the area of the Flat's that we were headed to is currently under 6" of water. Our friends at "World of Speed" have cancelled their event as well and, it's two weeks "after" our little soiree was schedule for.

Fear not, our massive event planning committee (Larry, Eric, Diane and Ian) huh.gif have come up with an alternate for the day "and" it doesn't require you waking up at "Oh-Dark:30" in the morning! cheer.gif

We'll meet and greet at PMB in the morning where we know a guy that can unlock the doors and show us around the shop. Then it's off to Kindig-It Design where Dave has agreed to feed us lunch and give us a tour of the most "Bitch'n" restoration facility in the world!

After that we got a "World-Class Invite" to the Largest VW Show in Utah! They'll be saving a space just for our group and holding off judging until the parade of 914's arrive. beerchug.gif

Next course change is in the Uinta National Forest run to Provo Falls. We ran into a couple of issues when running our route. Fees, Parking and Time. When we discussed with the Park district, they declined a fee waver for the 50 cars if we planned to stop along our route so, there's another $300 in fees. Not the biggest problem... that would be "Parking"! They have roughly 12 spots at the falls and that leaves 38+ cars to park along side the winding mountain road with rather sharp drops off the pavement. No thank you. Add to that, turning the cars around on a two lane mountain road seemed excessive and dangerous. The icing on that cake is, this would take close to 2 more ours out of our afternoon. The decision was made to head to Browns Canyon after lunch and then straight to Park City's Historic Main Street where we'll have a once in a lifetime 50 car 914 Parade down Main Street (replete with a drone shot of the caravan) before we set you free to wander and spend money on food and t-shirts.

All reservations are in. All members have paid. All shirts are on order. Thanks to everyone for helping to make this an amazing Red Rocks Classic! See you soon!

you could have just left it as "booked". it's fine, everything I've tried to do to get there seems to have some miscommunication or something blocking it anyway. these prototypes would have been fun to show up with on my car... oh well. (not that the person who was wanting me to design them answered my question about if it's a paid gig or not. all i got was "can you deliver?". they'd have been done and delivered if I wasn't left feeling like I'm just supposed to design things for other people for free)

Regarding your flares. For a retailer the question “Can you deliver?” preempts the price in my book. In the past, you haven’t been know for clarity or “delivery”. Which is why I asked. This thread is neither the time or the place for this conversation. You have my number.

How long a drive are we shooting for?

Timpanogos (92) through Sundance then up the 189 to Heber/ then Park City is a fun drive to get there as well.

Even better if you cut back though Midway/Wasatch Mountain State park to Guardsman pass and go top down to deer valley/park city.

But seriously, the more the better, but broken up into segments, because there is usually half the group that feels fulfilled early.

I'd be interested in a side trip Sunday to do sight seeing.

That's almost a better route for motorcycles...AF canyon gets really crowded around this time of year, some corners are 5mph if that, and the dirt section before dropping into Midway is rough on suspensions. Going through Sundance this season isn't much fun either. JMHO... East can be fairly quick with lots of great turns. We've got the options for sure!

It's gonna be epic. Here's a little taste o' the twisties...just a short section of Pine Canyon Road I shot when Eric and I were running the route. FRESHLY PAVED!

Guessing is been a while since you been up Guardsmans? They completely paved it all the way through a few years ago and put up some guard rails on some of the upper sections as well.

The Alpine loop section to Sundance does get tight and twisty (but thats what makes it fun) It can slow down pretty bad if you get stuck behind a mini van or something though.

^ that be the road im talking about! smile.gif

Biggest thing you need to worry about is moose around blind corners.

Seriously not kidding

Was coming over from the Big Cottonwood side a couple years ago with my daughter, whip around one of the corners past a pickup pulled off on the side of the road about 1 second before I realized WHY the pickup was pulled off the road.

This big ol moose was just standing in the middle of the road.

threw it in reverse REAL quick and hid behind the pickup until he decided to start trotting down the road and eventually into the brush.
