Saturday Ride June 17th, PCA Los Angeles Tehachapi Run Options

[914_7T3]

Please see the below info for the upcoming PCA Tehachapi run on June 17th

Not sure if this is limited to the LA Chapter or if it is open to all PCA members. There is an email link to the organizer on the registration page if anyone outside of the LA chapter would like to confirm.

So far I am the only 914 of 40 cars registered. Let's get some more teeners out there! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

The destination is the Tehachapi Loop.

We will meet up at the Vons in Valencia between 8:30 am and 9:00 am, have our driver’s meeting at 9:15 am, and start our run by 9:30 am. We will proceed northeast through the Angeles National Forest via San Francisquito Canyon Road eventually reaching Munoz Ranch Road which leads us into the Antelope Valley.

While in the neighborhood we will travel across the Musical Road.

On our way out of the Antelope Valley to Tehachapi, we will drive by the Willow Springs International Raceway. Continuing north, passing through many wind farms we will reach Tehachapi for lunch.


After lunch at about 1:30 pm a short drive will take us to the Tehachapi Loop. Parking is limited alongside the road. Here we will wait for a train to traverse the loop; unfortunately it is difficult to predict train schedules for the loop.

The return is on your own. Some will go back the way we came, others will use Highway 58, one of the nicer freeways, to leave the area. Head east to the 14 to the 5; head west to the 99 to the 5. Some may choose to remain overnight in Tehachapi, which has several good motels.

Registration for this event will open at 10am on May 31st. The regular $10 registration fee per auto is due upon registration.

Registration for this event will close on June 14th at noon.

Will do. I'm sure I'll be able to spot you at the Vons parking lot. Should be a great day!

I just registered but HAVE to bring the 911 because the teener is still on jack stands.

I've done some of this drive and it is amazing... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

Ravi,

No worries, Karl and I will represent with our two '73 914s. It will be good to see you again.

You HAVE to bring your 911?! Well, that's a bummer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I've done bits and pieces of the entire route at some time in the past. It will be a great day.

911, hmm? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) I wasn't gonna go there.

Ravi doesn't know it yet, but we're gonna trade keys! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

That is fine. I could bring the POS Civic instead. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) Rumor has it that it's on jack stands too!!!

[914-300Hemi]

I wish I had those jack stands. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow and will not be able to make the drive tomorrow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Sorry to hear. Hopefully Karl can still make it and we will represent the 914 community. Just hope I don't exhaust too much white smoke on all those GT4s.

A great day was had by all, except maybe for those who got written up by the CHP!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Two at 102 MPH & one at 115 MPH. Oh well, what good is all that HP if you can't use it.





There were GT4s a plenty.







Special thanks to kgruen2 for running with me through the mountains and lending tech support for when my oil temp needle was pushing red. Here are some pics of his awesome white '73 with a Raby built motor.







Spotted a beautiful red 6 out there as well that was not on the PCA run. Must have been a local one.






Other things I learned today: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif)

Running up to higher elevations through the Mojave in 94-104 degree temperatures tend to make air cooled engines run hotter and burn more oil...duh!

PCA members tastes are diverse and Porsche owners drive all types and colors (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

LA PCA members are really great. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)

Other Porsche owners do not look down on the 914s, many were very complimentary of our little cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Chicks like Porsches too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)

There are a lot of great roads out there to be explored so get out there and drive! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
