Default Luftgekühlt II

I would like to remind everyone that Luftgekühlt II will be held this Sunday, March 1st in the City of Angels:



The location of the event is at Bandito Brothers - 3249 South La Cienega Blvd in Los Angeles.





Here is a glimpse of the first event held last year - Luftgekühlt I

And here is Patrick Long talking about his race car driving career, plus the reasons why he is organizing & putting together Luftgekühlt II!

http://carstories.com/2015/02/patric...e-luftgekuhlt/




Gate opens a 7:30 AM for staging Porsches, although the event officially starts at 9 AM. My fellow R Gruppe members will show up in force...and hopefully some of you Rennlisters too!

Saludos,
Eduardo
Carmel

Flights are cheap, right?

Also, see other thread I started last week. That seems to had some legs while I've been at sea.

I got an email from Patrick saying that though the registered parking has been filled, there's still lots of general parking around.
Hope to see some fellow Rennlisters there.

Hey Race911: I didn't see your thread otherwise I wouldn't have started this new one here. I am trying to give the event some publicity since Patrick is a fellow R Gruppe member and it's going to be a great gathering of the faithful! So I posted the notice on most of the individual forums here at Rennlist!

So got to Race911's thread at link below and enjoy there Gonzilla's great photos from last year's first-ever 'Luftgekühlt':

It is likely to rain Saturday, will the event still occur if it rains? Does anyone know?

Anyone know the general parking situation? Is it near the registered? I thought I had heard some negative stories about parking or access from last year but maybe that was another event?

The event is for Sunday. Hopefully, the rain stays away in the morning. Supposed to rain Sunday afternoon.

Patrick Long, who is a member R Gruppe, sent the following message to us re: Luftgekühlt II this Sunday (March 1st):

"Gents,
As we told everyone, the show will go on regardless of rain fear. The focus may move indoors where we have already set up some very rarely seen cars and a ton of social space. Although the weather man can't make his mind up, I would say 50% chance we will see rain at some point Sunday. If you don't like your car driven in the damp, leave it at home and come join us for a nice, stress-free morning where you need not think about rain anymore. Plenty of general parking if you decide to leave the oldie at home and come in the "work truck." This event is open to the public. Thanks! And remember, this is supposed to be loose and fun.
Patrick"


So come on down rain or shine to Luftgekühlt II!

So far it's a perfect day at the show. So many rare Porsches. It's like an adult amusement park and it's free. There are at least 15 993's on display. I expect more pictures to come.
