I have this little 2 month vacation this summer called a "sabbatical" and I am contemplating taking the family to the Pike Peak Hillclimb. I went back in 1998 and it was a fun event to see.
Anyway...looking at the entry list, I spotted this car. Jeff MacPherson Bozeman, MT Pikes Peak Open 1970 Porsche 914 Anyone know who it is? -Britain |

I have always wondered if a 914 had ever been entered. I tried looking it up on several PP history sites and never found one. This could be the first!

I vaguely remember seeing a video on youtube of him in the 914, somewhere in-between the million other videos of him ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

Or could be my Alzheimer kicking in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |

Here's me attacking the 'real' Pikes Peak a few months back.... admittedly a bit slower than I would have liked in the uphill sections with my little 4 pot, but she gave it all she had (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaY8BZRGI7g |
