A variety of awards will be given out such as:

• Farthest Distance Traveled (driven or trailered)
• Youngest Owner
• Oldest Owner
• Earliest VIN
• Latest VIN
• Newbie Award (newest to 914 ownership)
• Old Timer Award (owned their 914 the longest)
• Jack Stand Award….self explanatory??
• Other awards the staff dreams up

The Car Show will be Peoples Choice judging. There will be three classes: Stock, Improved and Modified. Again, this is not a concours or show event, it’s a driving event so there is less emphasis on “Q-tipping” your car than some events.

• Stock will be as noted – stock. Minor modifications can be made (radio, wheels, etc) but basically a stock car.
• Improved: Must be street legal, all basically Porsche parts
• Modified: Full race cars and conversions with other non-Porsche power plants (V8, Subie, etc)

Depending on the number of cars in each class, we will award 1st, 2nd and 3rd place, PLUS an overall People’s Choice award.  Classes will be at the discretion of the event Chairs and all decisions are final…but they do take bribes… 

We are still finalizing the centerpiece of Okteenerfest – the Friday Drive!!  With the mid engine design and superb handling, our cars were made to drive. This is the foundation of which Okteenerfest was built – to go out and enjoy our teeners!!

For 2016, we have many NEW roads, some old favorites, and plenty of sites to see with our Lunch stop being in the awesome and eclectic town of Blowing Rock, NC!

Details to follow…
