Watching the F prod SCCA racing on speed channel and I'm wondering why the 914s are getting whipped? No offense Chris, congrats on your finish!
I'm ignorant to the world of racing rules and such, but I'm looking at X19s, MGs and even a Lancia spanking the 914s and can't help thinking...what up wit dat?? Educate me and make me feel better about the automotive love of my life getting beat by cars I always though were inferior to ours. |

I watched the race from the grandstands at the end of the backstraight, and was very disapointed to see three of the five 914's in the race drop out in the first 4 laps.
One dropped out on the pace lap , (sounded like clutch or trans problems). One pulled off in the madness section on lap 2. The other one did'nt come around on lap 4. 914's have done OK in other runoffs . 3-4 yrs ago a 914 finished 4th . Racer Chris did well and was pushing hard at the end of the race. I do believe a 914 has the potential to finish up front with some development. Dave |
