Default Santa FE, NM: Porsche Oktoberfest: October 13, 14, & 15th

My Dad's Hotel is host to the upcoming PCA event in the Road Runner Region's first annual Porsche OKtober Fest. I am rounding up a group to drive down from Colorado. They are expecting a great turnout! Two of the hotels are offering special PCA discounted pricing for the weekend of the event. Fort Marcy is a really cool little botique hotel sitting in one of the historic neigbborhoods of Santa Fe, within walking distance to the Plaza. Here are the details, it would be great to see some Rennlisters attend!

RAC let me know if you can make it work. Although this is a PCA event they are inviting other car clubs to attend. So any of the EFI guys or your non EFI buddies are welcome to join. I think it will be a blast to drive down. We can head over Friday AM and take the Taos Route. If you have never driven the 64 from the 25 it is a fun road and worth the extra time. We could probably make Taos in time for Lunch if we left early enough. Also if you decide to go make your room reservations early. I think they are doing an email blast to PCA members in AZ, CO, and TX

JP Schnitzer... DO IT!!!


Tim and his wife are leaving Friday Night... I am leaving early Friday Morning and My girl and her Mom are following behind in the denali. It should be a great weekend! They did some advertising locally (SF &ABQ) a few other car clubs asked if they could join the event. So there should be a good showing I think they had close to 100 people sign up for their dinner Saturday night. Regardless the drive will be worth it!
