This might sound like a stupid question but what kind of cars were the GT's main competition?

Well, it certainly has a pretty good history in the Autox world...
For anyone actually interested, here's a nice little history of the 914's wins at the SCCA Autox National Championships... 1973 C-Stock 914 Edwin Sanborn 1973 A-Prepared 914-6 Hary Gompf 1974 C-Stock 914 Dean Smith 1975 C-Stock 914 Nick Strine 1975 A-Prepared 914-6 Hary Gompf 1976 C-Stock 914 Jim Gray 1977 C-Stock 914 Lowel Peapody 1979 A-Prepared Ladies 914-6 Saudra Kline 1979 A-Modified Ladies 914-6 Sharon Gompf 1981 A-Stock 914 John Parsons 1982 A-Stock 914-6 John Havranek 1982 E-Modified 914-4 Gary Walton 1983 C-Stock 914 John Parsons 1983 E-Modified 914-4 Gary Walton 1984 E-Modified 914-4 Gary Walton 1985 A-Street Prepared 914-6 David Skelton 1985 A-Street Prep Ladies914-6 Susan Hagaman 1985 F-Prepared Ladies 914-6 Joan Colman 1987 C-Stock Ladies 914 Stacy Lynd 1989 C-Stock Ladies 914 Stacy Lynd 1989 F-Prepared 914-6GT Gary Wigglesworth 1989 F-Prepared Ladies 914-6GT Claudia Lyons 1990 C-Stock Ladies 914 Stacy Lynd Reitmier 1991 C-Stock 914 Jeff Reitmier 1991 C-Stock Ladies 914 Stacy Reitmier 1992 C-Stock 914 Jeff Reitmier 1992 C-Stock Ladies 914 Michelle Reitmier 1993 C-Stock 914 Steve Compton 1993 D-Stock 914 Byron Short 1993 F-Prepared Ladies 914-6 Ellen Ferguson 1994 F-Prepared Ladies 914-6 Ellen Ferguson 1995 F-prepared Ladies 914 Claudia Lyons 1995 F-Prepared 914 Andy York 2000 F-Prepared 914-6 Greg Fordahl 2000 F-Prepared Ladies 914 Jodi Fordahl 2001 F-Prepared 914-6 Greg Fordahl 2001 F-Prepared Ladies 914 Jodi Fordahl 2002 F-Prepared 914-6 Greg Fordahl 2002 F-Prepared Ladies 914 Jodi Fordahl Not too shaby I guess, a 30 year history of championship wins. Although lately, the only place where the car is competitively classed is in F-Prepared I think... -Josh2 |
