Since this is one event that I look forward to every year, and it keeps me from jumping off a bridge, I thought I would get some interest started early as Easter is on the 5th this year and will not be an issue for the swap. This coming year should be HUGE. Who is planning on going?

I've been talking to Zach and Bob about the route. Working on the details.
What does everyone think about making this a fun, scavenger hunt-style road rally? Where each car is given instructions and has to complete some tasks on the route. Then at the end we give out some prizes to the winners. Maybe we could invite some other Porsches and do a couple individual prizes, as well as a group thing for the 914s, or the 911s, or whichever model scored better. Just an idea. The other option is to caravan through the route. But, I think with traffic, etc. it is challenging to stay together. People always end up getting broken into different groups anyway. Thoughts? |

The other option is to caravan through the route. But, I think with traffic, etc. it is challenging to stay together. People always end up getting broken into different groups anyway. Thoughts? Been on a few drives here and there. Gimmick rallies/scavenger hunts work better as a team challenge when there is a passenger to play the game. Most people don't have time to look for other things while busy driving and trying to read directions or a map in an unfamiliar area. If you want to caravan the route should be generally clockwise in direction. What works for a single car often doesn't when people are following. Making left turns at a light or anywhere in traffic is a sure way to separate a group. A couple of preplanned stops to regroup is a good idea and if they're at a scenic/photo op place that's even better. And although everyone should gas and go before leaving on the run a gas/bathroom stop on the way out and maybe on the way back is also good planning. |
