The 2011 Nat thread talk about getting competitive in DP is not the first time I have had thoughts on this. After bringing a "Knife to a Gun Fight" the only 2 times I have competed on the Nat Level (SSM and FP) in my 2056. I am only going to help someone else win tires in that company.
I will be back in Oct in Blythville tho because its in my local region and it's a blast even when you are bringing up the rear!! Enough rambling back to the topic... What would a competitive 914 have to look like from top to bottom. What can/can't be done and what can/can't be replaced? Thoughts/ideas/input are always welcome..... |

@Brit...the 225/50 A6 has 10.2" and the 245/45 has like 10.4" tread (both are recommended for 7.5-9.5 rims). The 205/45's are around 9.2"(6-8" rec. rim). Those can be run under narrow body without any issues on 16's.
@Jon...i thought about 15's but I am looking for all the gear I can get with 16's. I'm even revving to 6200 now and thinking of going 200 more to see if it starts to float. I figure it is thru making power just hate to shift if i don't have too |
