Luftgekuhlt 2016
I am sure many are already aware, but this event is not to be missed. Put this on your calendars.

Absolutely. Also going to hit the club race, etc. on Saturday. And then there's some C&C event at the Rose Bowl Sat AM?
I'll do like last year and live post to the Facebook 993 page. |
I'm going for sure! Calendar marked!
|
Tempting to make a So Cal trip of it. I'll be at the Porsche Museum the weekend follow...so perhaps risking Porsche overload?
|
So bummed that it conflicts with the Cup races at California Festival of Speed in Fontana.
Racing vs the best cars and coffee ever...... Racing for me. |

Luftgekuhlt 2016 on the other hand, is going to be awesome! Can't wait |

Friend down there is looking to get us a table at one of the go-to, see-be-seen restuarants Sat night, if that's appealing to anyone. |

Given the Sunday schedule has racing 11:20-12:30, then a combined race at 2:40 for 1/2 hour.........coupled with how many cars drop out after Saturday........I think Saturday at the track will be a full day.

Excited to see 993 RLers & rides + L.A.'s Luft-loving 'cult'!
On the road to Cali today. Luftgekühlt Sunday :jumper: Happily surprised to receive organizers' invitation for special display. Suspect I have a certain RLer to thank for that :thumbup: The mascot "LuftAuto" (in image below) will be sold by Sotheby's to benefit pancreatic cancer research. Read more on Petrolicious.com's "Lufgekühlt Built A Perfect 911 Safari Machine." https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...88bd48f04c.png |
Luftgekuhlt 2015 was an awesome show. The event was more than just great cars. Hopefully the crowds won't grow too large now that the words out. I'm looking forward to it rain or shine.

Wow what an event. Great things about this year's event and some not so great things. All in all, this has become a premier event. Unfortunately it took an hour and a half to get parked in the main venue even though I was a little early for the time that I was given as a web registrant. I think people showed up way earlier than they were supposed to and it overwhelmed the crew working the event. The people working the event are awesome people. Very cool and professional so I am not knocking them - they were working hard. Many cars were overheating due to idling so long though. Once in, I couldn't believe the cars. Just about everything was there on display. Multiple GT2's and RS's. 934/5's, 904/6's a 49 Gmund and several other rare cars. I do feel it lost some of the intimacy the prior two years and venues offered. Clearly I can see why air cooled values have been moving up as this was an enormous crowd and it seemed like there is a 'new' following that is building around these cars. It was cool to see the passion for these cars yet I have to wonder if they will ever be able to regain some of the intimacy and uniqueness of prior events (especially last year's). To me it looks like this is only going to be bigger next year as each year the crowds have probably doubled with each year. I will definitely go again next year - and hope the parking is a little better :thumbup:

911F1-- Cool photos :thumbup:
Enjoyed the Kühlt cult - you could feel the Luft love in the air! So many propeller-heads & cool cars in 1 groovy setting. 1 of many highlights was meeting new RLers & old friends like race911, 993C4Rs, producerjohn, C4SJOHN, spdklz, TheBen, salo65, Kika, gonzilla, AZ Targa, jbronsonl, Tony, Frankie & more. Met an air-cooled fan who drove out from GA. Heard attendees even visited from other countries. Artsee-- Thanks for your time answering my PM about entrance procedures. Eichlerman-- Tim, hope my answer to your PM about entrance procedures helped. |

Had a great time at Luftgekuhlt, just a little disappointed that I got a spot for the Targa and then ended up not being able to take it out to LA for the show. next time I guess . . . . |
Thanks for sharing.

Great to see everyone!
I won't bother posting photos of the event--you can see, as Autoweek said in their coverage today, ONE BILLION on the web. So I just did my part on the 993 Facebook page, as reporter on the scene. I will post one from the Petersen, where we ended up after the event. What I'd take home? The white 993 GT2, of course. Honorable mention for Canepa's 934--a car I saw 100% apart at their last C&C event of 2015. |
Jäger, it was great meeting and talking with both of you and your wife yesterday.. I hope to talk with you again in a near future/event. It was a fun day with Porsche motor heads, great people and cars....

Think you were the 1st to leave & we didn't get to chat. So cool to make up for it 3 years later!

I lucked out and got in a semi OK line. It was quite confusing. |
Thanks for sharing some wonderful photos. Pretty bummed I couldn't attend.

Super envious of California!

Luftgekuhlt was superb. Kudos to Pat & Howie for finding such a creative setting that could host so many amazing cars & people.
Here are a few phone pictures to add to those above: Attachment 1216936 Attachment 1216937 Attachment 1216938 Attachment 1216939 Attachment 1216940 Attachment 1216941 Attachment 1216942 Attachment 1216943 Attachment 1216944 Attachment 1216945 Attachment 1216946 Attachment 1216947 Attachment 1216949 Attachment 1216950 Attachment 1216951 Attachment 1216952 Attachment 1216953 Attachment 1216954 Attachment 1216955 Attachment 1216956 Attachment 1216957 Attachment 1216959 Attachment 1216960 |
Great pics. Thanks for posting.
It was a fun day. So many amazing cars, but some of my favorites were the Carrera GS, Seinfeld's GTS and Emory's outlaw. Super cool to hang out with old friends like Jäger, Keith, Walrod, etc, and meet some new ones too! I couldn't believe how big this thing has gotten!!! I'll post some pics soon too as soon as I get them of my camera. |

So, the day started at a friend's nearby shop. Kika joined in, but was camera shy. A couple of the Rauh Welts showed up.
Attachment 1216823 Attachment 1216824 And before everyone gets all huffy, there was some other stuff there too (my car and a factory RS club sport). Attachment 1216825 We all headed to... Vernon? Attachment 1216826 Attachment 1216827 When we got there, we ran into a few celebrities. Attachment 1216828 Attachment 1216829 There was lots of grey and silver. Attachment 1216830 Attachment 1216831 Attachment 1216832 Attachment 1216833 But there were lots of colors too. Attachment 1216834 Attachment 1216835 Attachment 1216836 Including what I overheard described as "baby poop" Attachment 1216837 Overall it was a great time. I had a little trouble connecting with all the 993 RL'ers amidst the sea of people from other p-car factions, so maybe for the next one we should plan a RL993 after-party somewhere. |
great pics all! Thanks for posting!

However, we tempted that time-old truism: the smaller the car, the larger that truck that will back in next to it while you're away! https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...15389a7278.jpg After an amazingly long & enjoyable breakfast discussion about everything with Gonzilla, Chad, Ryan who uses his dad's ponchobroke log-on, & Jeff: it was over too soon, & our 993s were released back into the wild :bigbye: https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...5a6b05ff1b.jpg |

The car is currently sitting on M030 shocks with H&R springs. Wheel specs are 18x8.5 et 51 and 18x10 et 44 according to the seller, to be confirmed by Fikse. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...9a329f4d30.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...a0e96b72f4.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...3a7bb7d87b.jpg |

Great pics as usual and thanks for sharing!! 18x8.5 ET51 front 18x10 ET44 rear The rear fitment is fairly aggressive and folks swore up and down that they'd never fit. They fit killer with a minor fender roll. I had the car corner balanced and aligned with a bit of camber in the rear (not for the sake of fitting the wheels, but for canyon and occasional track duty), so that helped as well. The face sticking out on the front wheels is due to the high offset. Kinda cool imo. Although there are much more extreme examples out there, where folks reverse mount BBS faces. I'll try to find an example. I do plan on adding a 3mm spacer up front to fill out the wheel wells a bit better up front. https://c2.staticflickr.com/4/3830/1...b002d02a_b.jpg |

Just bought a ticket and excited to go. What's the setup like? Looking at some of the pics, do people sign up to showcase their cars? I saw they have a special parking lot for air cooled (now sold out)....are those spots set up so people can look at them?

Well I have to cancel so...
I have 2 tickets to get in and one air cooled parking ticket so IF you have a Guards Red 993 C4S AND are the first to respond that has a Guards Red 993 C4S the tickets are yours...free. I cannot guarantee they will let the car in, however. |
If you don't find the guards red c4s let me know as I could use two additional tix and would love the parking pass as it was sold out for me.
thanks, A.J. |
AJ the parking passes are not transferable, I was hoping to find someone with a 993 Guards Red C4S as that is what is stated on the pass. I do not know if they will check the name against an id.

Very frustrated over the changes this year. Last year we just showed up, paid, drove in when the gate opened, and parked with like cars. Now we can leave our cars on the streets of Long Beach and pray that the LBPD takes our calls when local vandals and pro grade GTA have their way with them. Um, no.

Hopefully the weather gods agree with the Porsche gods and the weather is all clear!
|
^^ 60% chance of rain. But, the drive down will be great!
|
Just curious - is there a convoy of folks heading down from the Bay area? We're on tap to leave early Sat.
|
Guy's I just got an update email from Patrick Long regarding the event. I have never attended before so I'm not sure if this is normal or because of the new venue. He said due to the size the paid to park air-cooled car parking will be in an adjacent parking lot across from the primary show. He did not elaborate on access from the public attending or how close it is. I'm sure as others have said certain unique cars will be selected and moved into the primary show. You guys may know all this but thought I would add this info. Rain forecasted too for Sunday. We will be there rain or shine but debating on taking the car or not.

Not so sure I am happy with the photo credit. I did not take it, but found it and posted on my flickr account.
The artist that took the picture, Afshin Behnia, deserves the credit for the incredible shot!

Mark and I are heading down on Friday. Leaving at 8:00 am from the shop.
See you guys there! |
Luftgekuhlt 4
I'll be driving up from Oceanside about 5:00AM in order to be able to park in the air cooled parking for which I paid.
The event starts at 7:00 AM and runs until 2:00PM. I don't know if parking opens at 7:00AM, or earlier, or how this dealio is going to work so I'd like to get down there early to figure it out. Stop and get some coffee and a bite to eat before parking maybe... Also, I'm an amateur auto photographer and want to make good use of my camera. So, the earlier the better to be able take photos of everything. If anyone wants to gumball rally it down there, let me know. |
I'm here and ready for Sunday! See everyone there 👍🏼

Tons of rare cars out there today (2017-05-07).
Porsche 935 Le Mans winner Silver 959 (with my kid in front of it) 906 (109) Rothman's 959 with original dirt 917 Gulf Le Mans (getting mobbed, difficult to get a picture) 917 Can Am 356 SL Gmund Coupe (featured on Jay Leno's Garage) Green 959, labeled as the fastest one built And Magnus' RHD 930 Turbo And more 993's than I've ever seen in one place before. |
Opo, ( Rudy ) it was nice to finely meet up and talk with you today....
|
Great, great gathering today. Crazy how you get numb seeing another '73 RS or another pre-A 356, or a Carerra GT just sitting in the parking lot. Tons of 993's. Wish I would have been able to meet more rennlist members. Maybe next year...
|
I just got home and have a ton of pictures. Good fun on the drive up at 5AM and the weather turned out to be ok. I'll get my photos and videos organized.
In the meantime, check my instagram: @blee_der |

I hung out with Jaeger for a little bit and mostly walked around with Rich 24FPS, but aside from that didn't see anyone I knew. Such a bummer because I knew lots of people who went. It was a big show though this year. Much bigger than a few years ago in the Deus parking lot!

A good time seemed to be had by all !
Met Rudy (Opo) his wife and young one...What a teriffic down to earth guy, and beautiful family! Be safe on your trip home, Rudy. Saw and chatted with Jager as we were leaving...Man I never get tired of seeing that gentleman's 993 Speedster rendition...Just stunning! |
Thank you, Paul ^^

good time with Jager Meeting RLers in person was far & away the highlight: - Chats with 24FPS (thanks, Mike!), Budge96, C4SDave, FisterD, Flyt993, Gonzilla, JPP, MarkD, mcipsEric, producerJohn, Race911, RJT, Stout, & more RLers who woke me up from Porsche overload :) Lesser highlights of an amazing event: - Getting email that Luftgekühlt was interested in red Speedster spotlight. - Text from Patrick asking if we could talk, followed by me curating 4 generations of air-cooled Speedsters. - Overhearing CA RLers who are driving instructors at the Porsche Experience Center Los Angeles realizing they're lucky to have so much Porsche goodness so close ...without someone having to tell them :burnout: Parting shots before hitting the long road home: RLer mcipsEric's SY 993... https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...602586a2b9.jpg https://rennlist.com/forums/attachme...7-img_2633.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...df83097f76.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...acf8c7761b.jpg ^^ Photography by RLer 911F1 + IG's bimmer_d, crs2pepper, johnatron77 __________________ Stay kühl --Jäger [Click here to meet my 993, & here to see "Speedy's" FILM on http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...922/IQUceJ.png.] |
What a great event.
Nice to finally meet Rudy! Beautiful Turquoise Blue 993! Jager, always good to see you. You and your wife looked great, along with speedy! You did a fantastic job with the Speedsters. Patrick was right in choosing you. I know you put a lot of work into making it a success. Thank you for the shout out and posting pictures of the Speed Yellow 993. Hope to see RLers at PECLA (Porsche Experience Center Los Angeles). We have a great time with all the different modules, rare cars and the 917 Restaurant and Bar. Until Monterrey week or sooner! |
What a weekend! I am very grateful for all of the Rennlisters I was able to meet and spend some time with. Bummed I didn't get to meet more. The event was HUGE!
:cheers: |

What a great show! I would have liked to have met more of you. I recognized a few faces but didn't get a chance to go up and say 'aren't you from Rennlist?' :). As always it was great to spend time with Rudy and his Fabulous familia. That is one blessed bunch! |

The event was phenomenal. An absolute kid-in-a-candy store experience. It was great meeting so many air-cooled enthusiasts and hanging out with some long-time friends. I took so many photos I haven't even had time to sift through them all yet but here's some photos of a couple of my favorite cars from the event...

Jäger - it was great seeing you Yesterday. Wish I saw Karen too.... You and I usually have a ton of fun when we talk. I want to apologize for being so short and distant yesterday. I had a terrible headache and I knew if I did not get a cup of strong coffee in the next 5 minutes we'd be leaving for me to get back to Mom and Dads and lay down. The coffee did the trick and we looked for you again, but you were not around. I promise next time will be like old times.

Their 2 pics with noticeable 993s: https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...e40e1ed466.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...acb1ac2201.jpg Not many 993s in that gallery, so enjoy the '89 that completed Luft's Speedster spotlight: https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...b070d81511.jpg Owner's son (driving ^^) wanted to bring the Speedster. Dad wanted to bring the Mexico Blue '74 (driving behind him). Luft organizers were awesome, giving me passes to get his dad's into the showcase area, plus this '84 Ruf RSR that drove from Chicago.

Great event! Wish they had something like this on the east coast.
Anyone have details on Dempsey's 82 SC? Great colors and nice looking build. Would love to find out more. |

Catching up with friends and looking at so many amazing cars takes time. Felt a bit rushed honestly. |

I agree. The show could've gone till 5pm and that would still be cutting it short.
