What times are you guys running at Laguna Seca?
Is a 1:40 possible in a 914 with good tires and power to spare? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Andy |

I agree that the track layout, track surface and mostly tire technology have changed the target number at Laguna....
but a 1:41 is still really flying. Yes I remember Dave and his wife's British Racing Green 914-6. That car could move and Dave was a very talented driver. He was one of the first to run programable EFI on his car. After every run he was downloading data and making tweeks to the program. Hi Greg....how are you and Tricia doing....going to make it to some GGR CR events this year? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) Hi Dan, I deserve the poke, we haven't been out since September (Cherry's Jubilee at Laguna). We hope to at least make Buttonwillow with GGR and hopefully Laguna Seca with Coastal Driving and also SCCA Vintage. It will be good to get out! When Dave sold his car, I snagged some of his spare parts, like a set of Bremteks and some fiberglass parts. I couldn't believe all the trick parts he had. Dave & Ellen were both really good people. I've got to run up to Paso and see his shop. Hey, I can't believe I forgot to mention another 1:40 914-4... Newlin's. From your post: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...mp;#entry924219 Boy we had some nice 914s in GGR back then. And also A LOT of them! Only a few were running 1:40s at Laguna though.. I know I'll never get down there with my 4. My target is to break 1:50 this year. I bet Andy will make a good run at 1:40. |
