Has anyone heard if their car has been "accepted" to present (ie be in the car show)? When are we supposed to hear that?

-Steve


Hi Steve,

I would think that the announcements regarding those accepted should be out any day now with the event taking place 4 weeks from Sunday.

I'm sure all watching will post asa anyone gets some info. to pass on.

My engine/tranny is being installed as we speak and should be ready to go in a couple of weeks.......hopefully it's first big event will be Luft8.

I'll post on 914World if I hear anything......

Good luck everybody!

Cheers,
Margie

Good Morning Steve and all......

I'm IN Luft! Yippee!!!!

Woke up to find a welcomed email from Luft received at 1:00 AM this morning.

My 1970 914-6 has been accepted and I received my Feature Car Submission Document and Early Admission Ticket..... (Move in 7:00 AM)

Hope everyone gets their acceptance today as well.

Looking forward to seeing who is in and to seeing everyone! GOOD LUCK!

Cheers,
Margie

^ Very cool and well-deserved Margie! I'd been figuring they will lean towards cars that have not been in prior Luft shows but not totally sure.

Hey everybody....... Rewind.......

I'm concerned that I may have misinterpreted the info I received this morning and jumped the gun.......

After talking to several other teeners that I know would have easily been accepted before my car, I'm not going to assume that I'm in.

Today I received an email at 1:00 AM from the company registering people and they were requesting completion of some "demographic" type information. After I filled in that information, it allowed me to download my Feature Car Submission Ticket as well as Early Admission Ticket. My Feature Car Submission Time on todays Ticket with scan bar states "7:00 AM" . My previous ticket printed in August stated "8:00 AM".

So I think I need to get more clarification from Luft to make sure I'm not assuming I'm in the Luft 8.

Sorry for this as I'm sure everyone is sitting on needles and pins waiting to know when we will find out who is officially in Luft 8.

Thanks for understanding.....

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

@914SIXXation Margie those are just the tickets, if you 'feature car submitted' you get one of those and your early admission ticket.

As we get closer we might have to see who's heading up from San Diego and possibly caravan, I know there's at least 3 of us (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Several people I've communicated with today received an email from Luft this afternoon stating they could only take 25% of the entrants so they weren't chosen. One person told me that they received an invitation confirming they were IN the Luft 8.

So that's all I know.....Best of luck!

Not cheap, CSOB's avert your eyes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) :
Luftgekühlt 8
Early Admission Ticket (ticket + tee) $110.00
Feature Car Submission $10.00

Think there was one other tier of ticket that wasn't early entry for slightly less...

I just got my 'rejection' as well - I kinda expected it as my car was in Luft6 and am honestly a little relieved as I can rethink whether I want to deal with the fairly brutal drive in my barely streetable car...

Anyways I believe I will have a spare standard (10AM) admission ticket available as I now have an 8AM early admin ticket. @mueller first dibs if you're interested

Should note, I thought I read that the tickets are non-transferable. I'm not sure how they check or anything but be advised.

I was also rejected, but happy I was. Getting there early and being stuck there all day is not very appealing.

I also noticed that, but I also bought a bunch of tickets last time for friends and family and there was no option to fill in different names on the tickets and we had no problems getting in.

Luft reject.


Hey, sorry to see all of the 914 rejections.....

I too received my notice of non acceptance....

I have been in Luft 4, 5, and 6 so they're probably ready for something new.....
Understandable why I wasn't invited. Greatly appreciate my past opportunities. Luft 4 was my first opportunity to meet so many great 914World friends..... so happy about that!

I understand that Andy got his notice too......he's been in 4 past Luft events with his beautiful yellow 914-6.

I wonder how many 914s are represented in the show?

I have a 7:00 AM early entry I received and noted in my earlier posts (originally had an 8:00 AM early entry). Anyone else have 7:00 AM entrance? I would think that besides seeing all those accepted in the Luft 8 show, it would still be a lot of fun to mingle and look at all of those that gather in the reserved air-cooled parking lot.

Either way, it should be a super event and great time to see some really cool air-cooled Porsches!

Hope everyone has a nice weekend!

Cheers,
Margie
