Just a couple of quick pics for the 914 crowd. I hope Otmar doesn't mind me posting pics of his car here....

First one is him warming up those street tires of his.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Isnt that white car the one that suposedly holds the record for the fastest electric car?

If so... Why is Otmar ahead of him???

Yes, I was also surprised at that.
It's not that I got faster, my best time was only a 14.023 at 95 mph. It's just that John was having troubles. He almost didn't bring the car since he had blown up a critical part of his Go-Fast machine. I beat him three out of four runs.

A friend just sent me a short video of one of the runs. Here is a link:
CaPoppy vs Zombie

I also broke the front motor mounts later in the day. The motors were slamming up into the trunk firewall. They bent it all out of shape and the engine lid wouldn't stay down since the latch was moved back quite a bit, but I ran anyway. The motor mounts are now made of grade 8 bolts and some rubber. They will not be breaking again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


Have fun!
