That's interesting. When he had the throttle pinned, telemetry was only reading 87% throttle. I wonder if that's how they set up the car, or if the telemetry was just miscalibrated.

Cool! I will have to look into that rare shades event when I get to the Raspberry car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/assimilate.gif)


The good news with 914s and Rare Shades is nearly any vintage Porsche color is by definition a Rare Shade now—but Raspberry even rarer and very much welcome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

Telemetry was off. One of those things to fix, but no time in a whirlwind effort just to get the car to the starting line.
