BIG NEWS!!!!

The schedule has been changed slightly. Renting the autocross course for a private event wasn't possible for the number of cars we will have in attendance. So now we are piggybacking onto the Empire Sports Car Association (ESCA) AX in Santa Rosa on Saturday. Because this change unexpectedly increases the cost, there will be $30 track fees if you want to autocross. I will be contacting everyone who signed up to notify them of this change. I will need to know AHEAD OF TIME if you will be participating. The ESCA insurance will only cover club members. I will be paying all of the join-up dues for those who will be participating. This also means that spectators are unfortunately not allowed unless they pay $20 to sign up. This will be a great alternative and the ESCA people are a great group of people. We just didn't have enough signups and staffing to run a private autocross when decision time rolled around.

So, the new schedule is:

Friday - Arrive, Meet & Greet, Beer-N-Brats
Saturday - ESCA Autocross
Sunday Morning - Wash-N-Shine, Car Show, Tech Quiz
Sunday Afternoon - Coastal Drive and Group Pictures
Sunday Evening - Closing Dinner, Raffle, Thanks
Monday Morning - Goodbyes



The official participant sign up sheet is now available. You must register for the event to participate. Please sign up on this page.

ALSO: I have decided to run the event under the PCA 914 SIG umbrella. The SIG will supply event insurance, funds, as well as other benefits. I'm very excited about this move! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) So the West Coast Classic is now known as the West Coast Ramble!


HOTEL
The Sonoma Double Tree is the hotel for this event and is now set up to accept registrations. Here is the info straight from the horse's mouth...

QUOTE
I just wanted to let you know that your rooms are entered and people can begin calling 800-222-8733 to make reservations under the 914 WORLD WEST COAST. If guests prefer they can also book on-line using the group code WW9.


Rooms are $155 per night, which is the going rate for a decent hotel in NorCal.


DATES & SCHEDULE
Dates are June 15-18. This is fathers day weekend.

The schedule of events is:

Friday - Arrival, check in, hang out.
Saturday - Drive
Sunday - Wash-N-Shine Show, judging, tech sessions, dinner, awards ceremony
Monday - West Coast Classic only AX




I will add details as they become available.

It's gonna be a great event!

Mark,

Let me know if I can help in any way. I'm only 5-10 minutes up the road in E. Santa Rosa.
I may even have my car running with a little luck!

totally unrealistic, guys. there are plenty of other options for people to get track time at infineon, anyway. if the AX is where i think it's at anyway, it will be extremely cool and potentially very fast. Sounds like Mark has planned out an awesome extended weekend for everyone!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) infineon is waaaaaay out of our league at this point ...


the AX *will* be great, and yes, the location allows ofr some rather fast sections ...

Oh shnap, that's a ways up there.

I'm only going this year if:

1.) I get the new engine in my 914
2.) I get the bodywork done (and primed)
3.) I do not, absolutely do not have to drive through fucking San Leandro.

Sounds fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

So, when is the SWCC07? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)



You can avoid driving through San Leandro by crusing straight up Highway 1. =-)

It'd be one heck of a drive. More twists than Chubby Checkers.... that was a good one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

Wait a minute! ...I though all you guys were rich now? Shouldnt we be at Infineon with personal garages etc? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

It would be cool to have AX at the Santa Rosa airport. I might even make it for that one. Make sure to put the go kart section in the AX if its there!

When will the details be made public?

Santa Rosa is great for a/x's up to about 50-60 drivers.
After that it gets a little difficult.

So, if I understand this "announcement thread", it's dates only and details as to the actual functions is still unknown and could potentially cause the dates to change, too?

Got it... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
