914 International Event 2010
Moderators: drummerboytom, MdR
Hi Tom, no it was more on the 914 forum that there seems to be a lot of negatives I just thought I'd chuck my (unworthy) 6 peneth in.Of course I'm not out to rock the boat or upset anyone.
I'm SURE that the organising guys, Bruce/ Ian etc will be putting on a bloody good do, in fact I'm booking myself but, as others have said--and I must admit, I agree---t'would be nice to know what we're getting for our well earned sheckle.
I'm actually down at the hotel next week end for the south Wales Xmas DO, which I'm getting into practice for now with a chilled glass of grouse.
Cheers
Ian

Agree on all points Ian . I've parted with my sheckle already ( several of them actually ) having booked up on Day 1914-6 wrote: I'm SURE that the organising guys, Bruce/ Ian etc will be putting on a bloody good do, in fact I'm booking myself but, as others have said--and I must admit, I agree---t'would be nice to know what we're getting for our well earned sheckle.

Sorry you can't make it John,
I'll miss the sound of your skreaching tyres to remind me I'm coming near a junction. Maybe you'll have 6 power by International next year ?
Are you planning to be out at any events this year ?
Regards
Andrew

Sadly I don't think I'm going to be ready by then & I steadfastly refuse to turn up in a water-pumper!
I'm gutted, being as I'm about 40 miles from the damned thing - but if anyone needs somewhere to stay & doesn't mind the 40 mile trek we should have a spare room......... just promise not to come back & rave on about how great it all is..

Maybe although don't hold your breath, that's a long term project competing with a number of house decorating projects for my time.amallagh wrote:Maybe you'll have 6 power by International next year?

I'm going to the 912 rolling road session in April. Well, my car does have a 4 cylinder engine.

Can't get a better driving event than the DDk Tour in September. Costs a bit for the fancy hotels etc. for the full wknd but worth every penny and more. Greta driving, great social.jonat127 wrote: Yes I would like to join at least one proper Porsche driving event this year, any suggestions?

Not sure where it will be located this year. I haven't seen any posts about it yet.
