After some research of vehicles in the 914 class and what I think would be a more suitable (E or maybe even H stock) I looked at the power to weight ratio comparisons. It seems odd that a 914 car that is a 22lb per hp (for the 2.0) is classed with the 13-16lb per hp of the competion. Here is what i figured out for comparison on the attatchment

. Does P/W ratio matter that little to lump the teener in with such a class? |

Just remember that stats like P/W and Weight alone are only a small portion of the puzzle. And weight by itself has a much more significant impact than P/W in autox. That's one reason the 914 is so great! Write a letter!!! seb@scca.com -Josh2 |
