What are typically asked for when one submits their car to this event?


I've entered and been accepted twice, with 2 different cars. Looking back at my submittals I see:

Basic info on your car, options, limited edition, etc.

Pictures

Your story about maybe how you got the car, or how long you've owned it, or why this car, or what attracts people to your particular car, or high level what has been done to it to set it apart from others, or maybe you restored it yourself or built the engine; or built with dad or kid, etc.

Good luck!

Regarding crime areas. I'm in a group that booked an AirBnB on the other side of the Napa River from Vallejo. Any concerns there?

Send me the address of the place...the only area that's across the river from Vallejo is Mare Island.

I made a couple of attempts to register for this event with two different browsers.
Has anyone else had difficulty registering?

It was awesome last year in So Cal. They had cars from the Porsche Museum including a 916. MSDS brought the Lemans Sunoco winning car.
The previous Universal Backlot was better though.


@Steve

Can you maybe start a thread with some pics of the blue car???
The blog car looks silver, yet the blue avatar looks really well done.

Rich

Check out the Luft 8 thread for pictures of the blue 916. To me it looked too nice. Factory 916 color?

My two boys and I have tickets for the 8:00 entry Saturday and Sunday. I entered the 914 although haven’t heard anything other than receipt for payment of the car entry.

OK, I was notified my car was accepted. The process has been a bit confusing for me. I guess I wait for an email telling me when my car is due there, etc. But, YAY! I am looking forward to this; should be a lot of fun. Hope to see some fellow 914World members there too. Having it reasonably close to home, (100 miles) is nice too.

I received the email saying my 914 was excepted and agreement with Cairo as to confusion but I’m in. I’m going to try the Leitz ski rack with a old Jose Cuervo tequila, longboard for Saturday!

OK, I think I got this sorted. Not an inexpensive show; the costs are $110 X2 for 2 people (my brother and I) and $95 for my car to get in to be shown. $315 total unless I really screwed up. But.... we each get a hat!!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)

congradulations guys on your acceptance for the event! i wish i could get away to come see your great cars! too short of notice to travel cross country for this, maybe if i told the wife it was conference i was getting my continuing ed class for licensure lol!

anyway the Leitz rack for sure and a long board would be cool! i mounted mine with a short board here at Werks this month and of course it got a lot of attention, pictures video etc, i cant wait to see yours! please post start a thread here and post lots of pictures!!

@DRPHIL914 Thanks so much. I totally understand about flying cross country for a show. My wife would have me committed (5150). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

In a "Well, there goes the neighborhood." moment, Luft has accepted my LS car. This was one of the pics I submitted, just for context. Yes, they know it's LS-powered.

@tygaboy - Excellent, Congratulations. Your car is a fine example of these cars being pushed to be all they can be in the hands of a talented owner. It seems there may be several of us there- hopefully we can all park next to each other and have a great time.
