Here is a segment of video of the 916 chasing Chris Foley's 914 somewhere between Fontana and Deals Gap. A second video is at post #30
The wind noise was awful so I filtered it quite a bit and reduced the volume. If you listen closely, you can hear the engine at certain points. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOzcRp4lUsE And here is a picture I took of several 914s and the 916 going round a curve at low speed.

Mayhaps I am a killjoy....
Crossing the double yellows on an active 2 lane road to cut across rather blind corners is inexcusable. If the car could not hold pace due to old tires, the driver should have slowed down to a pace that could be maintained. Zach |

Zach I tend to agree - driving style on the street should never be like on the track. Besides, its fun to stay in the lane - makes the curves sharper. I say, straighten the curves on the track, emphasize them on the street. |

I say, straighten the curves on the track, emphasize them on the street. As the lead driver I felt 100% obligated to stay to the right of the yelow lines (except in a couple left hairpins that I could see all the way through well before I got there). I often approached corners that I couldn't see around and someone was coming the other way. The Dr. had the benefit of seeing me ahead of him so he knew when there were no vehicular obstructions. There was never any danger of running into another car. |
