Fresh video from Mark Scott of the VARA event last weekend at Buttonwillow.

Mark in his early 911 is trying to catch the Frank Beck 914-6 (which he apparently never passed during this race ). These are both gorgeous machines with full-race 2.0 sixes. Nice quality and sound on this one, about 18mb.

Cool vid.

That 914 had some power!

Unfortunately it looked like the 911 was winning on the curves...

Thanks for posting it.

Yeah, both of these cars are in the 1900lb, 225hp territory. Race trannies, tweaked suspensions, and 225/50 Hoosiers. Pretty wild.

i hate to say it, but the 911 was driving a much better line.
or, to put it in better words, the 914 was driving a shitty line.
it was pulling great tho.

i know, i know, it's easy to criticise if you're watching and not driving,

no cigar, but the Barcardi Reserve I picked up in Puetro Rico last year is going down smoothly

Shity line or not. There's a fine line between passing and following. I don't care what you say. Looks like the tail dragger got passed and was following to me.....
