What times are you guys running at Laguna Seca?

Is a 1:40 possible in a 914 with good tires and power to spare?

Andy, your car has the motor and tires...not sure on what you are running for suspension...

My 914-6 with the 2.7RS motor ran 1:48s at Laguna on 205s and this was years ago in the mid '90s when the DOT R tire tech was probably about what a good 200WR street tire is today.

Drove BillPs 914-6 in its early itteration on cantilevers and did 1:46s with Doris on board and didn't want to scare her too bad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Also ran 1:50 in the Puttputt a couple of years ago on 205 710s...and that was just a little 2056 running stock Djet...a lot of that time was experience at Laguna along with more modern tire technology...

You have to push very hard, hit every apex and use every inch of the track to get into the 1:40 territory..

but your car has some of the makings to do it....

got some plans? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
