Boxstoberfest 2013. Registration now open ...

Just a quick note.....

We are pleased to announce that registration for Boxstoberfest 2013 opens July 1. Boxstoberfest 2013 will be held Sept 6 - 8, 2013, in Fredericksburg Texas.

Last year, over 200 fellow Porsche enthusiasts were in attendance, and enjoyed some of the best roads to enjoy your Porsches in the US. Attendees also enjoyed being with other Porsche owners - both old friends and many new. As in the past, all registrations are handled through www.clubregistration.net. Additional details for the event are on the official website - www.boxstoberfest.com, or on Facebook. Our routes are being finalized (to make sure there aren't any last minute construction areas to slow us down), and the rally and scenic routes are being given a few twists to make them a little more challenging - and more fun. On Friday, you are welcome to pick up either the regular or scenic drive maps if you would like to pre-drive them (many people who do the regular route on Saturday, pick up the Scenic route map and do it Friday, or Sunday).

Event central will once again be the Hangar Hotel. Registration check-in on Friday night, Saturday morning drive line-up, and Saturday after drive social and dinner will all be at the Hangar Hotel. Boxstoberfest has the entire hotel booked for the weekend, all 54 rooms - and as it's become a trend from past events, is already 100% booked and has a waitlist (it actually booked 100% the day the event closed last year). We do have a block of rooms at the Fredericksburg Inn, and the Inn on Barons Creek. There are numerous Bed and Breakfasts in town, too.

All the accommodation details, as well as full event details are on the website.

We look forward to seeing you at Boxstoberfest 2013. If you have any questions, just drop me an email and get you an answer. As we get closer to the actual dates, registered attendees will get very detailed messages regarding specific event times, what to/to not bring, event rules, and PCA required notifications.

(If you wish to help the organization or execution of Boxstoberfest, just let us know. We can always use drive leaders (there is a significant advantage to being out in front) - we need at least 4 volunteers for this. We can also use help with Saturday morning parking, and as always - we're looking for event sponsors to provide door prizes, discount coupons, tech session leaders, or???)

... some really cool cars and other stuff, such as:
At least two brand-new Boxster Spec Racers so people can see what goes into building these puppies.

A newlly-finished 986 Spyder S. You've got to see it. You'd swear it came from the factory that way.
We'll be offering a Tech Session on the just released DOF (Direct Oil Feed) IMS Kits, just like we did at BRBS-15 earlier this year.

For this session we'll bring a real, cut-in-half, 987C engine for demo. You can see all of the moving parts and the DOF injecting oil into the IMS bearing.
All of that will arrive in a full-blown Race-Shop-on-Wheels which attendees can also tour and check out.

It's going to be a great event.
See you all there!
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
