911 turbo 40th Anniversary Display

[John_Ward]

The planning is coming along nicely "" and we now have a confirmed date and venue.
The 2014 PCGB National Event is being incorporated into the PCGB Motorsport weekend at Brands Hatch circuit in Kent, and the dates are September 19th to 21st.
As regards our 930 Anniversary Display, the relevant days are Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st.
Having discussed this with Paul Keeling (who runs the 911 turbo Pride of Ownership Display), we're looking to provide 930 Anniversary Display parking on both days, but Sunday will be the Awards day - Paul has persuaded Meguiars to provide specific prizes for the 930 40th Anniversary Display in addition to those that they already provide for the 911 turbo Pride of Ownership Display.
Despite this mention of prizes, please do not allow that to put you off making your car available. As I have already said in Porsche Post, the good, the bad and the ugly are welcome "" just so long as the car is a 930 with the correct chassis number (preferably in situ)!
I'm looking for 40 x 930s for this display, and already have a respectable number of confirmed participants - and yes, space permitting, you can bring more than one 930.
If you are interested in making your 930 available, please let me know either via this thread or else by contacting me directly by email.

By way of an update; it is hoped that a 930 Anniversary Display Parade Lap will be possible on the Sunday. No guarantees - it's entirely dependent on Race Programme.

Well done John
You already have me down for this.

John,

Back from the dead and about to renew my membership. If there is room, Stella would be available!

All the best
Simon

 

[andrew_churcher]

Can you add me to the list John I only live up the road and plan to be there

 

[John_Ward]

Thanks guys - please keep them coming..... and Stella is always welcome Simon, just make sure that she doesn't get banged up in France again!

 

[SEE YA]

I will be careful in mine, in June over there for LeMans.

 

[sjd]

Do be careful - the French police are not forgiving and it cost me several €000's to get my car back!

And John - look forward to catching up - Margo is also now done and I am not sure which is the more scary to drive!!!

Best simon

Further update; numbers are heading up towards 40, so please keep them coming - especially as we have 2 days to cover, and many people can't make both days. Condition is not important - it's not a concours event.
All versions of 930 are welcome, just as long as they have a genuine 930 chassis number.
On that subject, both the first and last UK RHD 3.0 930s will be there, as well as at least 3 Martini 911 turbos, including the only black Martini 930 built.

 

[Nick Paul]

I think you have me down for both days John?

From the Festival webpage:

A celebration of the 40th anniversary of the 911 Turbo will be on display, from the 964 all the way through to the very latest 991.

Well, who wants to see those old 930's anyway?!

 

[Nick Paul]

Thanks Martin - no point in going to Brands then - I had better cancel my tickets

No such problems at Prescott on the 4th Aug - (930's only I believe!!!).

 

[Nick Paul]

Well - looking forward to seeing all you 930 people at Brands next weekend - For some peculiar reason I am camping so hoping for good weather.

Bit quiet on this forum recently; perhaps its because your all out enjoying driving your cars (or polishing them!).

 

[SEE YA]

I will be there on Sunday, got my hanger did a bit of work today on the central locking all fixed.

 

[John_Ward]

Numbers are looking good for the 40th Anniversary Display, with 50 x 930s put forward - thanks guys, it's really appreciated.
Only slight problem is that I'm not sure which day(s) everybody is attending on, so Penny and I may have to do a little juggling on site.
Display lap for the Anniversary Display 930s is scheduled for Sunday at 12.30
Weather forecast is still decent (at moment!)
Looking forward to seeing you all there.

John,

is there any special area we have to go to? I am hoping to arrive by 10- 10.30 on the Sunday depending on traffic from Devon.

The car is all clean so it better not rain !!

Cheers
