Bob's gt3 in the foreground due to Huey's rusty/broken suspension issue and Bill H's Italian stallion. A very nice car. I'm sure the both would have preferred to have had their 914/6's but I have to say I have a bit of envy. Either way , glad those the could not bring their 914 still cam to enjoy the weekend.

Yeah, for those that didn't see it....THIS is what kept us from driving Huey... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) YES, we would have MUCH preferred to have Huey on the drive... |

It was an incredible event with lots of great people! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) I truly enjoyed meeting so many of the participants and making new friends and thought Bob, Nadine, Mike and Steve did a great job. I'm hoping to make it next year as well with a running car although, I might need to ride with Mike again so he doesn't get lost! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I know Steve is working on assembling a CD with photos and I am uploading my 180 pictures to a site for him but until then, the link to the pictures I took is below. http://s273.photobucket.com/user/stephenak...enerfest%202015 Teaser photo: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i273.photobucket.com-7987-1442841472.1.jpg) I'll also start loading them up to the Okteenerfest website but, that's gonna take a bit with no bulk uploading capability. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Guess it's time to start planning next year's even! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I will upload them for you via the admin section. I can bulk upload (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Thanks for all the great shots. For the second year in a row, I was too busy dealing with event stuff to get time to take as many photos as I would have liked. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) She was my "shotgun" shooter on the drive. And I think I'll give the photo AND video duties to Ali at future events (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

There was a blue 914-4 that was leaving out Sunday morning and it had a different, lower exhaust note. Does anyone know who that might have been? Just curious to find out more about the exhaust.

Dee That was me. The muffler in a stainless steel unit I ordered from Mittelmotor in Germany. I installed it in 2001 and it still looks new. I don't know if they still have them anymore, |

We have a -4 as well and my son looked at me and said "dad, that's what we need!" Dee |

One more video. Remember the stuck semi on 221? I was following Bob and we were moving pretty good. The officer looked less than enthused on how fast we were driving.

Interesting observation during the weekend.... I was standing at the hotel looking at the cars backed into their spaces one of the evening, and noticed the EVER car except one had the P O R S C H E letters on the engine decklid. I didn't take a picture, but went back through my pictures to see...Yep, most of you in STOCK class have the letters....
So much for NARP (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) Attached image(s) |

It also looks like the chrome sail trim pieces on each car is in much better shape than what I have on my car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
