Here is a short in-car video of the second race of my 3 day race weekend at Summit Point Motorsports Park in W.Va. This race was black flagged on the second lap. I was down on power and torque, but ran the event anyway (getting that taken care of this off season). There were about 6 914's in the Group 2 (2 liter and greater) races with a lot of other nice vintage racers.
I built the yellow car specifically for vintage racing and this was my first vintage event that ever I raced in. What a rush! Oh yea, that green 914 in front of me on the start is a real GT. The #19 Max Moritz car. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TD6PeZritI |

A pinto.... I know they were fast but.... Yea, I know .... I was really, really down on power and the had an issue with the floats in the carbs going around turns sputtering. Wait 'til next season, I'll pass a few Pintos (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . |

Mike do you run an A/F meter? that would clarify for sure... but usually sputtering is rich in the corners there can be multiple reasons after working on the floats and jetting, I'd start to look at percolation modifications, and phenolic blocks on the manifolds |
