I agree. It is not a great picture. It is just the best one I have available for now.

In the past the 1st person who spoke up got their car on the front page. I am willing to delay my 15 minutes of fame until later in the season when I have a better photo to offer. Who else has a good action shot for the home page?

That's the only ASP 914 I've ever seen.

That's the only ASP 914 I've ever seen.

I don't have a SCCA rule book. I showed up at the 1st auto-x of the season and said "I need to class my car". The steward took a quick look at my car and got out his copy of the rule book. He then asked me a few questions about what I had done to the car. He pointed to page 157 where it says 914/6 (all) and told me I would be in ASP. (I have since found a copy on-line, but I have not botherd to read it.)

Do you think I should be in a higher or lower class?

It's the results of trying to take a hard righthand turn at near 70 mph.
180 degree flat spin, rolling backwards through the cones and DNF. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Here is what I found for an original 6
My take on it would be take it as a blessing to remain in ASP because if you get bumped to SM-2 the PAX will kill you.

Hey VegasRacer... I think this is a good shot. Isn't this yours?

(IMG:http://www.4nets.com/baldwinpowersports/images/vegasracer.jpg)

Nice.
