It was was stated here a couple months ago that a Fest in 2018 was pretty much dead....and that most likely would be no more TDI Fests.....Sadly......

Bummer. I thought were were going to try and get something going in Texas. I hardly come here as much as I used to (all four TDIs have been pretty reliable), and I'm totally bit by the diesel bug - just picked up my second truck yesterday, which makes 11 diesels here (I still have #12 I need to pick up, which is a John Deere tractor).

Consequently, Mike Stewart and I are running out of gas and energy in trying to set up a Fest for 2018 and it is getting too late in the planning. If someone else has a "plan" for 2018, please go for it.

Bummer. I've never been to Flying L, but it's about 15 miles from where my ranch is.
I don't know if we could still setup something more "informal", say for us TDI owners in Texas (and some surrounding states)?

It's probably to late to have another TDIFest in Sturgeon Bay, WI this year, but we could try for 2019 if there's enough interest.

Wasn't TDIfest held in Lake Mills, WI many years back? I feel like I remember attending it as a child shortly after my dad bought his first TDI. Anywho, I'm down to go anywhere for the next.

If TDIfest truly is dead, I'm interested in its resurrection and can easily get it planned out to be held at rotary park here in Lake Mills again. Not too far away from Madison or Milwaukee, Wisconsin which offer some things to see. Also its only about 20 miles away from the southern end of the Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive which is 115 miles of twists and turns and ends only miles away from Road America in Elkhart Lake..just food for though.
