Hey all, though you might like some eye candy.
Today we had our friends 1980 IMSA 24 Hours of Daytona GTU class winning and 5th overall 914-6 at our shop (carrera6) in San Gabriel, CA It is still in it's 1983 Sebring livery (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1093.photobucket.com-17182-1418942051.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1093.photobucket.com-17182-1418942051.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1093.photobucket.com-17182-1418942051.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1093.photobucket.com-17182-1418942052.4.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1093.photobucket.com-17182-1418942052.5.jpg) |

Oh, I agree...that's why I didn't want to be in Group 10!! I ended up at GTO in Group 6, with Huey... still not fun, but at least I wasn't being run off the road..
GTO and GTU were Group 6 |

Yeah, He was going to 'allow' me to run Group 6 with Papa Smurf if I took off the wing and splitter, and ran in class 6X - meaning 'exhibition'...no awards, no trophies. Huey was probably classed correctly in GTO, but with a street stock 3.2, it was slow going... I went to him at the end of the weekend and said "since I have to rebuild my race engine, what can I do to make it (Papa Smurf) legal to run here in a real non-Group 10 class". He said - after degrading me and my car - "go buy a car that's got a HSR log book and is done right and looks like the other 914's out here, why is this so hard for you to understand?"

Sounds like some of these guys need to loosen up a little!
My ex-GTU 911 has a 3.5L in it, so I'd classify as GTO, and unfortunately, possibly Group 10? This car is pretty much exactly as raced in 1987 except the larger engine. What do you think? Attached thumbnail(s)
