914 AX Shootout
Loma Prieta Region PCA and 914club are coming together for a one-time event: the 914 AX shootout! On Sunday morning, March 20th, plan to be in one place: Marina Airfield near Monterey and Laguna Seca. This is a fabulous AX site with excellent pavement. Course design will be by our own Randal Barrick. Lunch will be catered in by a nearby Deli. Expect to be able to order a sandwich, chips, and drink for $10 or less. This event is being hosted by the Loma Prieta region PCA. As such, participation will limited to PCA members (driving any Porsche) and 914's (PCA membership not required) only. V8 and other conversions are welcome! So, although it's not an all-914 AX, it's close! (Besides, we can show those tail-draggers and water-pumpers who's boss!). Expect about eight runs -- maybe more! Sunday March 20th Marina Airfield, CA Registration 7.15-8.30 AM Driver's meeting 8.45AM $30 Entrance fee Snell 1990 or better helmet required. Instruction and limited loaner helmets available. Drivers must work for runs. For those out-of-towners, Trekkor will chime in here soon about nearby motel discounts that he has arranged. I know that it's late notice, but we need to get about 20+ 914's at this event! We can do it!! So commit now!!! Also, I'm looking for a few volunteers to come early and do some setup (this counts for your work requirement!). Please RSVP in THIS thread. We need to know how many 914club members to expect. Questions? Post 'em here, or PM me. Thanks, and get those cars ready! Nathan |

I am way overworked lately, haven't done diddly on the car, and probably have a battery going out that will show itself after a few runs, but I do have a place to crash in Monterey and there are not nearly enough people on that list!
I think I'll try to make it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) I hate racing twice without modifying my car in between. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) Especially since I did so poorly last time out (WCC 04) I can think of two things that I would like to do: 1) De-Camber the rears and toe out the front (not too hard). 2) Get some AX rubber. Does anyone in central Kalifornia have some 4 bolt AX wheels wth rubber to sell me? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) I've got a little cash to throw at it, and not a lot of time, I'd love a bolt on solution even if I have to buy new rubber (does anyone stock decent stuff around here?) I've got no flares, and am running 2.0 mags for my street tires so nothing too wide. I've got a set of EMPIs but no short bolts to mount them with and I don't like the incorrect offset. Should I even consider making them my track wheels? When the PO used them he burned the paint off the left fender from rubbing. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) |
