Hotels are getting antsy as they would only give us a short time window to register for the rooms. REALLY important that you make your reservations NOW as the desert area in the spring is really popular and ALL the decent places fill up NOW !

So please make your desert hotel reservations now

thank you
Dave

Hi everyone,

I just got off the phone with Daniel who took our cars last year from the east coast. He can take 7-8 cars each way from NY area (as far north as MA) to LA. He is available to pick up the cars during the week starting Monday April 14 to get them on the west coast in time for April 22-24, before the Targa begins. We were quite happy with his service/communication last year.

If you are interested in using this service, I will be the point man on this one so you can contact me. If there is enough interest, I believe we can arrange the return trip as well, after the Targa ends. Because of the nature of this, I urge you to connect with me either by email or pm as soon as possible, preferably in the next few days.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim,
Thinking of doing this in '15. What's the price for a round trip haul per car, approximately?
Thanks

Hi everyone,

At this point, the outbound (east-west) trip is BOOKED. If you think you might need a ride, please let me know anyway so you can be listed as an alternate.

The return trip (west-east) is BOOKED.

Nice
the field of cars is shaping up and people registering for the event. We are up to 70 entrants in already. As of today, there are still a few rooms left at the first night's stay in the desert (Fantasy Springs) Ask for Sunny when you call so she can get you thru the system

Thank you
Dave

There are NO MORE spots on our return transport if anyone is interested.

For those who have expressed interest already, we will be collecting information (type of car, pickup point, dropoff point) in the next couple of weeks.

Here is a photo of the truck we will be using:
