Yesterday I hijacked a thread in the worst way.
so I'm going to start this as its own thread. Eric, I'm hoping that you and Joe join in on this. Joe, I don't know if you like or dislike the idea but eric threw out Moab as a potential meeting place that is kinda central... I know moab sounds great to me and a number of colorado guys love the idea too.... Plus I have some contacts in that region (colorado western slope- grand junction) that are 914 friendly, so we could have some sort of a safety net at least..... and I think I could round up a few 914 people from grand junction too.. (there must be 20 914 racers in that town although most of them are VERY serious race cars with no street abilitiy.) So chat up.. what do you guys think about picking a date that is prior to the full heat of the summer... maybe june. what else do we need to decide before room reservations and attendance reservations are put into place. I was tenatively thinking about: -people travel on saturday. -meet on saturday afternoon. -a saturday tour. -a big saturday dinner. -a sunday morning gathering and then people drive home. I know it sounds kinda simple, but I'm open minded. For those traveling from afar, I would be very willing to help provide friday lodging in the denver area and then you'd be welcome to join our saturday caravan. (hey, I've got a spare bedroom if you don't mind dogs) ok.. chat it up everyone.... brant |

One of the biggest reasons we had an auto-x at the WCC was to give the guys a chance to be involved who did not have street legal cars. An auto-x or some other type of track event is fun, but it is a lot of work to make it happen. In addition to the biggest hurdle - insurance, you also need equipment such as cones, timers, flags, etc.
Another options would be along the lines of what they did at the Fall Foliage Classic - a poker run, or some other fun competition. At one of the 914 Owners Association Reunions a few years ago we had a fan belt toss, stop on a dime contest, a blind backing slalom and a few others. It is never to early to start thinking about trying to line up sponsors to help pay the bills. If we ask nicely, maybe Jeroen, Sean or one of our talented members will design a logo for a t-shirt. |
