Default 944Fest 2015



What: 944Fest 2015

When: September 18th - 20th

Where: VIRginia International Raceway
1245 Pine Tree Rd
Alton, VA 24520
Map

How: Sign up at www.944fest.com



Hey Everyone!

944Fest is just around the corner. I know a lot of you have been before, some always wanted to and yet others are reading this, learning about it for the first time.

As always you can expect a laid back atmosphere surrounded by your fellow 944 owners. With our full course DE, Go Karts, Car Show and more there will be non stop 944 action all weekend long.

Now I do want to stress this. Having the event at VIR is a huge undertaking and could possibly be a one time deal. If you only ever get to attend a single 944Fest, this is absolutely the year to do it. Don't hear stories later about "the time we went to VIR" and wish you would have been there. Be There!

So check out the link above, mark your calendars and sign up. It's worth the trip!

It does sound a lot like "the time we went to the ski lodge," hu?
Wait! What ski lodge!? (We're not supposed to talk about that remember?)

I'm in - just signed up. Coming for the full day Friday - my local PCA has annual wine tasting (also not to be missed) on Saturday AM. Looking forward to meeting some folks and getting a little track time!

Before they had drones real men climbed things to take cool shots like this...

I really don't think we should talk about Mid-Ohio either.

I wish I could make it but I have another event that I have to attend.

Now for those that have never been to VIR and want to experience an exceptional road course, there are two events that week.

REZOOM has an full course DE on Friday, Sept 18th, http://www.motorsportreg.com/events/...7#.Vb9k6flVhBc

and First Settlers region of PCA has a 3 day DE, Sept 19-21. http://www.motorsportreg.com/events/...6#.Vb9k5vlVhBc Saturday is on the South Course (prepare to work those brakes) then Sunday and Monday are Full Course.

Enjoy and post lots of pictures and videos!

If you only come for one day, Saturday is going to be the day.

Sunday we pretty much just have the VIR shooting range open for us. Nothing really official / structured. But if Sunday is all you got, come out in the morning and take down some targets with a bunch of 944 guys! It'll be a good time.

This is closer for me, so Travis has convinced me to try and make it this year.
