Is it doing okay for him? I've got a bunch of photos of it if he would like to have them. .. |

Joseph, thanks but the black/yellow is mine. The blue car from OC belongs to Trevor Rice (Rough_Rider). I'm sure he would appreciate some pics.
Thanks for the great pics Bruce. If you'll trust me with your camera next time, I'll try to get some of your car. Or if you have some action shots on file, post 'em.........we appreciate diversity here. |

Thanks guys.......
I have a whole bunch of pictures of this AX (150+)! Jim, Next time I'll have you take pics with my camera whilst I'm out driving. I get very few pics of it. I still love yer car the best. I missed the few spinouts we had. Got a lot of the tail draggers too. .........b |

914 Wizard? No way. I got too much to learn. Group: Members Posts: 4,099 Joined: 21-April 03 From: Gig Harbor, WA Member No.: 598 |
QUOTE I missed the few spinouts we had. Got a lot of the tail draggers too. Bruce I had a beaut. On the sweeper on the west end of the course I mashed the throttle instead of rolling on and the backend let go. I tried to power through but I was toast so I left my foot in it and did a 360. Never missed a gate. I was inspired by the the NASCAR guys. I ended up with a clean run and a face full of tire smoke. Dave |

I had a great time breaking in my new car. That 3.2 has gobs of torque and horsepower. I need more tire. Spun in the sweeper 3 times of 6 runs. Maybe I should slow down a little................Naw.
Manged to be within a second of JP's sorted car. Look out JP here I come. |

Having no reverse does have a few disadvantages. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |

Pretty cocky for an old guy JP. I'm in you guy's class but not your league (about 3 seconds back)!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) JP, with that much power, you don't need reverse. Just do a burnout, and flip the car aorund! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Okay, there are definitely times when reverse is -usefull-... -Josh2 |

I was there as a spectator and got a change to meet a few of you. Watched the first two passes - As I remember, the teeners and one lone WRX had the fastest times I observed. 40.07 for the WRX and 41.07 something for the yellow teener race car...
Does anyone know what the top time of the days was - and who was it? |

Don't have the exact times, but in the first group the order was Britain Smith (in JP's yellow 914-6), the WRX, then JP.
As for TTOD, in the second group a Corvette ZO6 driven by a fellow who is a past SCCA nat'l winner, beat Britain's time by about a second. This season is going to be fun. |

Hey, have any of you's gotten the time results. I need car numbers & names of drivers to go along with the photo submissions to the PCA Anzeiger Mag.
