Anybody racing a 914 in SCCA ITB in recent history? I have a 1.7 L car and wonder if 90 hp is realistic using stock FI and a header?

So, is this where you started racing?
Is the IT class a good place to start.

I did some PCA DE days with my Tangerine car back in the mid '80s before taking it off the road for rust repairs.
Then I got my racing license in an American Sedan Camaro and a Rabbit ITC car, then raced for 2 years in a rental GTI in ITB.
In '95 I started racing the 914 in ITB and ran there for 2 years, doing about 30 races, before rebuilding it as a Prod car. I also did quite a few autocrosses.
IT is a great way to start racing. It doesn't take a whole lot of money to prepare the car and you can do a lot of Regionals while learning how to service and maintain a race car.
My comment about "throw away" cars was referring to the number of cheap ITC cars that some guys don't seem to care whether they wreck or get physical with.
