You get into autocrossing simply by going and trying it. Only thing you need is a helmet - and most organizations have loaner helmets if you don't have one. Can a stock 914 participate? Yes definitely. Your car only needs to be able to pass a simple tech inspection - which any safe roadworthy car can pass. Cost here in the Bay Area is $30. Autocrossing is the cheapest and safest way to learn the limits of your car. It's the only safe place I know that you can actually drive at or beyond the limits of the car or driver, and not have consequences except for hitting a few cones and scrubbing off some rubber.
As Dave Darling used to say, it's the most fun you can have in a 914 unless you are *really* limber! Try it. Chances are you'll get hooked! Demick '74 2.0 |
