Palm to Pines Fall Festival (Nov 18-21)

Hey is anybody local up for crashing this "real" 356 event to be held in Palm Springs, CA next month? I'm in.....details can be found at: www.porsche356club.org

I take it because you used the term "crashing" you're not going to register for the events. Just sort of cruise around Palm Springs and visit some of the events. This could be interesting. I may be in for it.

My initial response would be "HELL NO" but if we were to get a bunch
of replica's to cruise around to piss off the "REAL" guys, then
I'm in.......

Exactly! Yeah, I never planned to register or hang out with those guys but we have a place in PS and go there nearly every weekend anyway, so I thought it would be fun to plan to drive the Speedster out that particular weekend and cruise around. But rain would be a definite show-stopper for me. I had to drive the Speedster to work one day last week during that rainstorm we had and it was not fun. I stuffed shop rags into the openings between the side curtains and the A-pillar and they were sopping wet when I got home, and all kinds of little drips were coming in from everywhere. It was a trip to say the least...not one I want to duplicate.

What ever you decide to do don't load your speedsters .........
on an open car carrier!

Beth,

Now you realize the "fun" Speedster drivers in less than the normal SoCal weather put up with once in a while. That is why I can't understand why nobody seems to make the plexiglass or Lexan slider side curtains. Could it be that Russ at Flexsteel lives in LA? There is a definate market for a nicely made set of sliding side curtains.

Wow! Party-crashing a PCA, 356 event with a bunch of replica's and maybe a few "outlaws".....I love it!

Only wish I lived closer...I might even put the megaphone on my headers for something like that!
