Plug in a web address and look at some of the pages they've done since 1996!

Seanery, Thanks! This site is awesome!

A while ago Dan Thompson asked if I had the 914 group shot from the 1996 GGR Time Trial series. With this archive site I was able to find it!

We had alot of 914s running track events back then.

Some of these drivers are on this forum.... Let's see who chimes in

I'm 7th back on the left!




Here is another one of my favorites I was able to recover from this site.

wow. thanks for finding that...

count the 914s
I am going to see how many I can identify.

# 59 Larry Sharp
#81 Me
#32 ?
#3 the Niedels
#8 Jim Biesmeyer
white yellow front right LLoyd DeMartini


fifth car back on the right should be Ted/Kevin Voights (bright yellow)

Must be 25 plus cars in that pic.

Was #32 Lee Klepinger? Looks like his car before he cut the top off.

I think the 4th car on the right is Tom VanOverbeek, Father of Johannes Van Overbeek in the ALMS series. Ted & Kevin Voight now own that car

I think you are correct on #94 Greg. Of course that car and number now belong to Ted Voigt.
I know there were several other shots of that setting, would be nice to be able to find some more of them to see more of the cars better.

I was hoping I could find the others on the archive site, but this is the only one I used for a home page cover pic. I know there was one from the flag tower that would provide a better perspective.

I'm really disappointed all of the legacy web photos, etc. were not saved by the club... I'm just so happy I was able to find this one on the archive site.

I'm just guessing, but I bet lurking back there are: Gary Dorighi, John Seidell, Bert Del Villano, Dave/Ellen Ferguson, Curtis Robertson, Art Seeger, Bill Newlin, Dan Cowell, Brooks Esser, Dave Evans, Sergio Meza, Brian Perry, Todd Harter, Richard Jung, etc. etc.

Hard to believe that pic is 10 years old!
