Planned Route for Amelia Island Caravan March 7thPCNA will be welcoming US to tour the heritage display on March 7th. Should they have a docent available we will also get a tour of the facility, to be determined.
Just inform the guard you are with the Amelia Island Caravan and you will be granted safe passage. Obviously our plan is to tour the Heritage display and visit the 928 #1 for many people this is a once and a lifetime chance. (((drama))) Caravan is scheduled to Leave PCNA at 10am. Please plan accordingly.
This drive is 350 miles of not so much fun, 240 miles of it is nothing but hwy. The balance is along the coast line offering a few nice views. That's 5hrs without stopping. So in real time for a group enjoying the drive. Approximate time varies by adding 2 hours. Approximately 7hrs trip time.

Time out for LEG #1 is 10AM
Leg #1 start ONE Porsche Drive Atlanta Ga. 30354 End Love's travel stop 3009 Ga.-257 Dublin Ga. 30121 Approx 2.00 hrs 124 miles fuel and stretch Stop 30 min leg #1 = 2.50 hrs
Leg #2 start- Love's Travel stop Dublin Ga. End Restaurant to be determined LUNCH Stop 1.5 hrs leg #2 = 3.00 hrs (variable) Loves travel stop 8436 Ford Ave, Richmond Hill, GA 31324 if needed
Leg#3 start Restaurant to be determined End Amelia Island pkwy in Fernandina beach Fl. Approx 1.45 hrs 115 miles leg#3 = 1.45 hrs
The Schedule, weather, all times, traffic , mileage etc. are approximate so please stay flexible, excluding acts of GOD this is the plan.

HOPE TO SEE YOU THEN
Had to change restaurant venue will update post prior to caravan.

Cars and Coffee is free to attend but the entries were limited. Are you looking to simply attend or are you asking for someone to sell you their spot in the C&C field?

I'm looking for a ticket to bring my car. So if someone signed up and for whatever reason, isn't able to bring their car, that's what I'm after. I have a friend who is on the fence and I've confirmed that I would be allowed to swap places with him...but like I said, he's still not 100%...so I'm shopping around for anyone else
