Anyone going to the PVGP? I didn't take the teener last year because of some electrical gremlins that turned out were hiding in my relay board. So this will be the first year it will be on the lawn there. I an kind of excited to show off the car.
There is a 100+ mile ride today through the backroads north of Pittsburgh hitting McConnell's mill, and Lake Arthur. its called the Glacier tour and they have run it for a couple years now. then they meet at the Double Wide Grill restaurant after. We will be taking the Cayman on this ride. I expect to be in pretty fast company.... Saturday and Sunday are the races through Schenley Park, this is one of only two races held on city streets, the other being Monaco. Plenty of places around to spectate. and cars of all types parked around the golf course. The teener will be parked in the Porsche area on German hill. too many cars to look at. Italian, British, Asian, the American Iron gets there own piece of hill across the street. There is a fee to park on the lawn, and I think you have to belong or at least contribute to one of the car clubs to park there. $85 paid to ARPCA gets you a spot on the lawn and a catered lunch for two. But the event is free if you just want to walk on. they run parking shuttles from various lots around the park. The event supports the Autism society, Hope to see you there. Look for my little blue teener. |

Spoke. Bad juju for flatbeds. I also came home from event on a trailer. Not the 914 though - race car Datsun 510. On the trailer Saturday after an encounter with a jersey barrier in turn 3. Stupid race car trick on my part ☹️
Really really premier event for East Coast guys if you haven’t been ! |
