Anyone forming a caravan, or interested in one ? More than a couple in ATLANTA that would be interested in joining |

Judged -vs- Corral
If enough of us show up we could have our own separate judged class ! :burnout:
My question to Tom Provasi. Will all the transaxle cars be lumped into one group or be decided by model (24,44,68,28)? Tom Provasi answered, In the past, we have judged all the transaxles together. We do that since there are so few cars entered. If I get a large entry of one model, I have the option of breaking out. Our judges don’t use traditional concourse points based score sheets, instead they rank the cars based on presentation, preparation, condition and ownership/usage etc. I think you’d enjoy the process. |
Be nice to see more 928s at Amelia... one or two at most in recent years.

Unfortunately cant make Amelia but have registered for the Porsche Experience on March 12, should have the 93 GTS back together by then.
|
I will be at Werks Reunion and the Cars & Coffee with two 928s and my 15 year old's 924S (in judging). He turns 16 that weekend!

Places to stay
Where's everyone staying
Jacksonville or on the island |
If you don't have a place to stay already on the island or in Fernandina, I think the only option less than $500/night might be Jacksonville. You almost have to book a year in advance.
We're staying in an AirBnB on the island. |
@ jej3
I have a place to stay on north end of the island. I was curious about what general area might be best for socializing. I found out there is no bad place,

FYI - The Amelia Island Concours is scheduled for March 7-10th 2019.

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?
