m sure you guys have seen the video, but if you havent... WATCH IT. over and over. I know you guys like to poke.gif the taildraggers, but this is quite a driver behind an unbelievable car.

The article itself is about him, and Im sure you guys will be pleased to read it.

It isn't lost on me, the fact he does this with no helmet, safety harness, no fireproof driver's suit or shoes. No HANS Device , for it has not yet been invented.

Smokin' the hills. Drifting nearly every apex.

Amazing skill with prodigous power trying to upset his day at nearly every turn.
Pure art......

This is my favorite driving video, probably because it's a 914 with an insanely good driver. It's old and you've probably see it before but who cares watch it again!

Just something about seeing a 914 passing all those other Porsches makes me want to watch it again and again.

What's amazing is to see how he can brake much later and drive just about any line around the track to get around the other cars. Just seems to be playing with them until he decides to get in front.

Couldn't agree more. I'm pretty sure Keith has posted here before as EP914. His videos are a blast to watch. There's another of him driving the same care at Lime Rock that is one of my favorites. There's also one of him doing a 56 sec lap at Lime Rock in a 914/4 Cool stuff.
