Britain Smith
Great day at the SCCA Autocross at PIR. Took TTOD with the Where2Race sponsored Porsche 914. Finally got the boost under control, the brake bias in check, and had some fun driving the car in anger. Can't wait to mount new tires and take the car to Packwood in two weeks.

Go Britain with the Where2Race sporsored 914.

The shitbox lives. Yea. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Why the hell do we have all these guys that don't even own 914s come here to tell us what you can't do? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Why do they try and kill someone's dream no matter how unrealistic it may be (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) . I would rather support someone's dream no matter how far fetched it is as you really never know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

In other words, if you don't have anything nice to say fuck off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Give me a break 914 club newbie. I have been in around autocrossing and racing 914's since I was 10 years old in the 70's. Owned 4 of them. I have enough 914's parts to build 50 percent of a tub in my shed. I'm looking for another 914 as we speak.

And I will let you and others delude yourselves. with "dreams" Guess thats my proplem I'm too much of a realist.

Guess you missed all of JPs dream killing comments over the past decade on these forums? Oh wait he doesnt own a 914 eithe now! LOL! Nope I just dont take crap and I know an imposter when I see one.

And FYI Brit isnt an imposter. He is actually getting it done! Its the other mouth pieces here that have no idea what they are talking about.

Look for my dream at the Nationals this year. I had nothing but dream killing input developing this car from most of the characters here. Comments a sub 2000 lb boxster is impossible you will be lucky to get it to 2100 lbs, your crazy Boxster could never beat a 914, Didnt let that stop me from building 1970 lb FP Boxster that has podiumed at National Tour event and is now on its way to run at Lincoln for a podium spot.

Suspect you and others could take a dose of your own medicine and just zip it but thats not the nature of 914 culture from what I have observed.

I know youre fast. And looks like you have done a great job with your car! Its our West Coast 914 freinds who are a little delusional at times in their current state when it comes to SCCA classed 914's. JP used to think he had a nationally competitive Emod car with a weezy 2.7 liter Porsche motor, then backed off to XP stating car was nationally competitive, Then after it went to Brit they tried weighting up to FP, fail, Boxster smoked him at San Diego Tour and we beat the Larson BMW day one and lost by less than a couple tenths for weekend due to a spin. The Boxster is ions faster now (250 lbs lighter and engine is making about 20 more HP) We also have full monoball suspension and real race springs on the car. We podiumed at San Diego with my old street setup. LOL! Now Brit is finally on track with XP build I think will work but he is still behind you on development path for the class he is running. I'm sorry if being a realist spoils everyones day. Its just amazing to me that Brit has taken exact path I had reccomended 3 years ago. LOL!

I was just growing tired of the great Northwest imposter telling me I didnt know what I was doing with my 914 and subsequently with the Boxster. My 914 was never a serious effort and was used more as a track car. Boxster was my first real focused effort on a SCCA AX car. I got it as far as I could but it needed expensive motor work to become a true nationals winning car. Rather than stop the development I sold it to have somone who knows a bit about AX car development take it over. Erik thinks it could win FP right now with the right driver which is all the endorsement I ever needed that I was on the right track. Fraser also said the car was very close to a nationally competitive car and offered suspension help.

So this will be fun as you will be driving against me and the "right" driver at Nationals. LOL!

Who cares what JP says (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Just don't be the same dick that goes off telling people they can't do this or that. Isn't that what learning is all about?

Don't lump me in with JP.... for that matter, don't lump any of the NW guys with him. We have a very great group up here and, to my knowledge, they only give people support to try new things.
