We're cooking up a BBQ at McMark's house in Napa instead of a breakfast this month.

Date has been confirmed as Saturday, 26 Aug. It will be at McMark's house: 1046 2nd Ave, Napa, CA.

This will be free burgers, but you bring your own drinks. I'd also suggest bringing any condiments you want on your burger, and any other food you'd like to have and/or share. All I'm supplying is meat, buns, onions, and my particular favorite flavor of mustard.

There's a pool, so bring your swimming gear.

If you're not driving a 914, you'll need to park down the street at a nearby school. The driveway and immediate street parking will be 914s only.

Mark also has an engine ready for a "How to tear down a Type IV" session.

I figure everyone should start wandering in around 11:30 to 12, and we'll hang around until Mark kicks us out.

Attendees so far: 20
Me, my wife Susan
McMark, his SO?
Jenny, Brian?
ChrisNPDrider
Jeff Keyser, Kylie

sounds awesome!!

August! Sept 2 is Labor Day weekend and I'm on a road trip.

Aug sounds good. Put me and Kylie on the list.

Fun idea!

Aug 26 would be better for me... maybe...

Sounds great, but I probably can't make the 26th. Sucks since it will be just a couple of miles from my house

I vote the 2nd, but I know that probably doesn't work for most people.

either way works for me ...

Andy

sounds like a good time, I will try to be there with the teener

I'll do my best to be there... Susan (my Susan) is due on September 4th - so I might be in the hospital playing catcher....

26th would work better for me.

Augusst good...Sept bad. Pasta salad????? Or smoked salmon dip and crackers???? Talk to me people...esp. Mark and Lapuwali since they are doing the "heavy lifting"....

I'm in! Either day is good.

I genuinely can't make either date, which is good because it's too far anyway.

But it sounds like a blast. I'd love to see Mark tearing apart a Type IV in his swimming pool!

My girl won't get home from work until later (4 or 5 pm).

Sept 2....I'll come up and pick up the red 914/6 and bring a few friends....

HEY...I DO HAVE them....

Either date should work for Sylvie and I, though the 26th would be a little better.

Let me know what we should bring!

Randy

You should bring whatever you want to bring. There will be burgers. Anything else you want, you bring. Drinks, salads, hot dogs, crisps, pigs with an apple in their mouth, whatever.

Hehehehe, you said crisps. I would expect such things from Fiid, but then again, you surprised me with the six conversion as well.

I spend way too much time around Brits...

I'm an Aug 26 kind of guy.

I'll try to make it, but 8/26 works best for me. Assuming of course I'm able to googlemap Mark's house.

Add me to the list...either day works

I knew there was a reason I was a definite maybe... Soccer tournament the weekend of the 26th. Maybe Labor Day is better

I think we can officially say it's the 26th. What do you think James?

It's looking that way. Monday, I'll update the first post with a proper date and more detail (like the exact location). I can't edit the title, but you can. ;-)

OK, first post has been edited with the correct date and location.

McMark, can you edit the title to correct the date?

See all of you there on the 26th. Let me know if your name isn't on the list in the first post and you intend to show.

Done!

Some maps...

Address is 1046 Second Ave, Napa CA 94558.

More images to confuse people. If you use Google Maps, this will help some.

Crap, I had hoped to meet some of the Bay Area members but we are in Vegas hotel/casino hoping until the 27th. You guys have fun. I hate Vegas -- not the car -- the "Las" (the-the).

Cheers,

BenT

I am a possibly-maybe. Almost definately without the SO. My car is also in need of a fuel pump, so not the 914 either.

Jen

Sounds like you're walking from the school parking lot. I'm got two running 914's but can't make the date.

BenT

Sounds like fun especially with the engine breakdown but I am out of town.

Next time.

I hope this BBQ is still on.

I can make it for a couple of hours. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

It's still on. See you then.

Mark, this is one event I hate to miss. I am on the board of my daughter's school, we have a board meeting that day. I think we finish around 3 or so.

I know it would make for a long day but I am tempted to drive two hours to see who is left at you place, sounds crazy but that's why we drive what we drive...right?

i, for one, will still be there when the sun settles over beautiful napa ...

but then again, that might be a reason for you not to come up there ...
Andy

We'll be there as well, and I don't see any reason for us to take off before the sun sets.

I'm still up in the air.

1. BBQ
2. a/x @ Marina
3. races at Sears.


KT

As far as I'm concerned, we'll hang out as long as people are willing. Maybe I'll have to bring down the ping-pong table and we'll have some tournament fun.

Ping pong? Please! I used to be pretty good, but it's been a while.

how about "spin-the-bottle" ???
Andy

Bump

James.

If I go to Marina, will you guys save me a burger?


KT

Mark, what time does the tear down start?
