Shoot! I don't think we will be able to make it to this one... we are going to be just getting back from a long vacation that Friday.

I'm sure going to miss you all!

Is this the same weekend? My shop wants to show my car there due to the A to M transmission swap they are doing for me. Hmmm
shows how separated things are... this is the same weekend as the largest water-cooled VW show on the west coast, just up the road in Tacoma. Oh well :(

Count me in for Mtn Biking and against my better judgement Drag racing...

NURT here we come .... Should we rent the same cabin for 3 days this time and do the whole 62 miles?
The weather is almost starting to be nicer up here. I should be able to start riding soon lol. I say the 62 mile epic ride is a very strong option.

How about we rent the Boat House cabin again for August 3, 4 & 5th? We ride the NURT August 3, 4 & 5th and drive up to PDX on the 6 th AM?

Sigh, I'm doing this with a bunch of phones ringing around me, I meant reply to the original post with keeping the list updated. Same as everyone does on "the other" Cali GTGs.

Anyone I forgot, please update!


August 6th, 2011 - Fix-um Haus

Address:
7104 N Lombard St
Portland OR 97203
503 286 0903

It's time to start planning for the Annual Portland Fixum Haus GTG. These worked up to our bid for TDIfest - and while it became to be known as Westfest, however I've been told that we cannot call this a "fest" of any type because we cannot cause confusion with the real TDIfest.

So, this is a GTG, abeit a GTG that has grown to the point as to be larger than some previous fests (like Montreal :D). If out-of-towners need work done we can accommodate, including any time leading up to the GTG. This event is mostly a come and hang out; however to borrow Andrew's format I have some ideas I'm going to put up here.


MECHANICAL SERVICES


We will add to this list as needed. Service generally is not done the day of the GTG unless arranged beforehand Oldpoopie is usually our guru the day of the GTG. Service is available at Fixum Haus the week leading up to the GTG as well.

Staying out of it... and taking a hiatus, a sort of TDIClub vacation if you will, after TDIFest. But, remember, we're always watching ;)

Zippy- if you would like to come up, you know you always have a place to stay
Thanks, Keli! It's much appreciated. I'll let you know if I can make it up. I hope to be able to. I've been wondering when this thread was going to pop up. :D

Anyone want to do some audio work at the GTG????

I would love to have someone help me with an aftermarket deck, rear speakers, steering wheel harness and maybe even an aftermarket amp..... I'm not confident enough to do it myself :)

You mean something like this...



No? I hear there's a mini-me version as well... :eek:

I'm in as usual. Need a tint replacement on one window... regulator mishap. Also may be up for a dyno. Definitely want to video any runs at the strip. :cool: Here's hoping for perfect weather...

I may be into this as well, though a big maybe at this time. Will know closer to the end of the month - sounds like a great GTG. I would love a dyno if that were happening.

I'd also suggest talking to Tommy's window tint. They are a bit closer to the GTG (inner SE), and worked with us at TDIFest last year.
