I may do something similar. I really enjoy autocross, and I cant afford to do the vintage racing scene. Certainly not an entire season.

Going to add a comment based on what you just posted. You are in the same boat as many of us here.... but more importantly you can build or even better, buy a street legal prepared 914 that will be a great AX car. To be competitive it may not be too comfortable but it will be driveable. You accomplish a lot by doing that......the car can be shaken out on the street making it more reliable. There is an old formula for building a car for axing in stages that was generated by the founder of Automotion, Tom Green...For years I used his formula which was 21mm front bar 180 lb rear springs no rear bar. Good shocks, lowered and good alignment/corner balance and my car was consistently fast with a stock 2 liter ( pretty much). Eventually you do more ( like adjustable prop valve, better pads, exhaust ) but there is no need to sit on the side lines building you drive it.
Just some things to ponder. and good luck ! quote name='jamesjedi' date='Jan 3 2017, 02:03 PM' post='2440499'] I may do something similar. I really enjoy autocross, and I cant afford to do the vintage racing scene. Certainly not an entire season. [/quote] |
