914World.com _ 914World Garage _ getting my 2 year old involved early

Posted by: Dirty Evo Dec 11 2011, 01:40 AM

i just wanted to share these because... well, I guess, because he is my boy and I think he is cute kid (we all feel that way about our kids!!)

he takes the lug nuts off and on with the drill by himself and also knows how to use the tire pressure gauge .....

this was getting the car ready for my last track day last month

Great pics But be careful, the little guy has his arm up and inside the wheel well in that one shot. If that car falls...

Exactly why I taught my wife to hold a tire at 3 and 9 o'clock when changing a flat by herself. Also, feet and legs never under the car.

Next he will start giveing advise on how you can cut your AX times. Then he will

issist he can do it better. All this before Kindergarden !!

It really is a wonderful thing getting your kid's involed with you and your

sport.

Looking back from my age 72, some of the best memories I have is of the

activies they, and my grandkids shared with me. Jealous ya I am !

My 2 year old won't pass my 914 until I let him in and I start it up and go VROOM with it. Then we have to go to the other one.
Helps me keep the batteries in good shape and oil moving in them.
First thing he does is put seastbelt one, even though we don't go anywhere. Mommy doesn't know I took him around the block a few times before.

BTW - before you ask, I don't think they're real mini-914s, but just photo-shopped/etc.
