What ever happened to a clean simple paint job?
Some of those race car's graphics look like the splinter cammo on a WWII destoyer.....break up the lines so's ya can't see them. Most guys do it making them all look the same. I prolly offended someone

I think Brads silver tube car is pretty....OK, handsome......Simple & clean, it prolly stands out in the crowd of gee gaw shi....stuff.

Are you talking about the pic that Jeff K posted? Thats a Euro car, but it does have a high front end. I do believe at a certain time, the US Government set a bumper height law. That might be why some 914's have a higher front end.

Posted by: seanery Apr 22 2003, 11:13 PM

Geoff, it's quiz day on the list and you're making me out to be an idiot, here. The names escape me but here's the group. We had a great time over 5 days exploring little skinny, corkscrew roads in Northern Calif. It was fun for all, one ticket, no accidents and no significant mechanical problems.
We've got to do that again.

Great pictures everybody.

Yeah I noticed he was cracking your ass. Quit picking on "dad" Geoff. That is my job.

I recognize a few of those faces.. most of them are SoCal people.

What is ole Dennis Deeds up to these days ??

Posted by: Brad Roberts Apr 23 2003, 12:19 AM

I wish it would have been a clear day and that we didnt have to shoot this at 45mph... but this is one of my favorites. I sent DaveD and JonW ahead of us in my truck and lined us up for the pic.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Apr 23 2003, 12:22 AM

I have hundreds of "favorite" pics..


B

Posted by: Carl Apr 23 2003, 12:32 AM

Yeah, right. I believe that. <_<
My father's still got his 993 but he hasn't autocrossed it. He did that with his '82 SC when he was in his 70's. Not too bad for a guy his age.
I don't know what Dennis Deeds is doing now. I haven't heard anything about the 914 Owners Assn. for some time so he probably has gone on to other things. The 914 lists provide a lot better info much quicker than the old newsletters so the old Assn. format is really obsolete. I have to give him credit, though. Organizing the tours was a huge job, he did it very well and the members of the Owners Assn. was a very friendly, fun group.
I've been thinking of putting together another NCal tour when I get past some of the projects I'm working on now. It would be fun. There's some great roads out there.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Apr 23 2003, 12:34 AM

Count me in. I cant gurantee my help setting it up... but I would really like to do the tour.

Posted by: Carl Apr 23 2003, 12:41 AM

After June I'll be more free to get into 914's again. I miss the drives a lot.
Mer and I planned out a couple of routes on the map but we've got to go drive them and be sure they'd work for a group. The timing, finding places to stay and the rest of the details takes all the time. We've not set a date yet so, we'll see. It would be fun to have you along.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Apr 23 2003, 12:44 AM

I really want to get a group together and head out east for the MUSR this year. Even if we rent a trailer and ship 3-4 cars. Rumor has it.. this year is back in Hot Springs (which I felt was the best venue)

Geoff

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 23 2003, 10:46 PM

Even without any decals, the paint job makes it kinda tuff to blend in. I got the ticket as I was pulling out of my parking spot to line up with my other 'pod' members. I never even got out of 1st gear. I guess the cop thought I was gonna do something bad. I'm just glad he didn't look at the car to close. I did have insurance and the car was 'legally' registered (just as a precaution for the tour). Since then it has only seen public roads when stapped to a trailer.

4 replica Fuchs from Pomona - $ 200
Set of street tires from Big O - $ 300
Bolt-on muffler from Pep Boys - $ 20
Lawyer to make ticket disappear - $ 1800
914 miles up the Calif. coast with all my teener friends - Priceless

Carl - Thanks for posting my portrait. I like it?

Nope, the car he races is a Sheridan bodied car, which I think is for sale without the engine/trans.

The car in the pic, the red one, is a 914/6 that has recently had new floorpans, subtle rear flares, and all new paint. It will be receiving the 3.2 from the race car, the stock 2.0 is in his basement.
