Re: The 2018 Solvang Datsun Roadster Classic is coming up
Gotta suggestion for the organizers of the show. I flew down a couple of years ago to attend the festivities. Met a lot of great people and saw some awesome cars. Found some difficulty when meeting the new people to put the "real" name to the 311s screen name. How about providing name tags for those with entered cars with their given name along with the screen name? That will help those first timers and non-regulars feel more comfortable at the show. FWIW Pat

Re: The 2018 Solvang Datsun Roadster Classic is coming up
That is a great idea. I usually have my 311 name on my t-shirt, but if everyone had one a badge with their name and 311 names, it would make roadster people identification easier. It could even just be available or a blank thrown into the packet, People could fill it out on their own. Kinda late for this year but I think it's a great idea.dynaguy wrote: Fri Apr 06, 2018 6:22 pm Gotta suggestion for the organizers of the show.

Re: The 2018 Solvang Datsun Roadster Classic is coming up
Thanks for the offer I appreciate it. I'm flying into San Diego. I have a couple of old friends down south who want to come to the show. We all went a couple of years ago. They're anxious to go again. I get in on Thursday and leave on Tuesday kinda making a get-a-way out of it.2mAn wrote: Wed Apr 18, 2018 10:50 pmAre you flying in?

Re: The 2018 Solvang Datsun Roadster Classic is coming up
Registered and staying at Svensgaard with my wife.
Will be driving the roadster up there on Friday.
Simon, if you end up coming on Fri, we could drive there together. Planning on taking the scenic route along the coast if anyone else is interested and departing from LA!

I think that could work... I should probably figure out my lodging now that the car is alive!
