Randal,

Thank you for taking the time to put this together... nice looking page.

I suspect you might have an error. I think the first names are switched in P3L. Clay Perrine's bride is named Betty (not Bette) and she drives a 914 in Maverick Region.

Good job on the page. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif)

will they ever be beat


With a big 4 (250HP) and big tires, like Tom runs, I'd love to go head to head.

It just takes lots of money!

And damn happy to be there, too!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

In watching the times the previous day, I said "If I can pull out a 90, I'll be ecstatic!" I did, and I was.

Note that all three cars placing above me had competition tires, and I was running hard-compound street tires. In addition, Cody Sears is one hell of a good driver, and his car is prepared to the absolute limit of the rules. Mine has 140# rear springs, a 19mm sway bar, and a Bursch muffler. And that's it. Heck, I didn't even bother checking the tire pressures in the past month!

I'm surprised that nobody pointed out that Birgit beat me by 1.2 seconds--in my own car, which she had never driven before that day! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) She would have placed 3rd in the Men's class, beating one of the sticky-tire'd cars in the process. Not bad, huh?

I'll attach a pic of her getting her first-place award from Charlie Davis, the '04 Parade autoX chairman.

--DD

PS--I did take 1st in the 914 section of the Tech Quiz, and missed 1st overall by only 2 questions!

Hey.. cut Dave some slack. He hasnt had a car to drive in almost 5 years. This is his second AutoX back into the car. I think he did just fine.

Birgit is going to shoot you Dave... so I might as well post a pic of her driving your car better than you so she can shoot me also...LOL

Oh.. this was Birgit's 7th AutoX total. She can drive.

Hey fellas...

I saw greg curtis' name in the results..
was he driving his street car (special edition creamsicle fairly stock with 7inch rims) or was it the semi tube frame -6?

the 6 is really a nicely detailed car that he does much of his own work on..

somewhat OT:

Dave: in the picture of your car being ably piloted by Birgit, it appears that your front lid doesn't quite line up with the headlight covers. mine doesn't either. being a neophyte, i am not sure why. was the nose pushed in a tiny bit at one point? is there anything i can do about it? BTW, the light blue looks awesome.

sorry about posting an OT reply. for future reference, would a PM have been more appropriate? this question (about my hood, not yours) has been puzzling me for some time. thanks.

Remember Dave.....

On the actual 914 section of the tech quiz you got beat by one question. But you had more answers in the overall section.

Jeff,

his street (prepared) car is this one:

http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...t=ST&f=2&t=8965


don't know how to contact him electronically.
I could get you a phone number from our local PCA chapter, but have never seen him surfing... I think he is too busy.
