The Streets of Willow at the WCC got me all fired up for the Big Track. ( you were right, Bill )
June 24-26, I plan on running the GGR DE and TT at Buttonwillow.

Who else wants to stretch your legs?
What advice can you offer? ( besides brakes )

Hi Trekkor,

As a first timer in PCA DE/TT's, an instructor WILL drive your car with you as a passenger during a drive around session and possibly the first few laps of the first session do give you a view of the racers line ont he track.

I'm not sure if Dan is instructing, but if you can get him he's great. He was Doris and my instructor bascially at the start up of our DE/TT experience, and he had his own 914-6 for several years. Just work with the GGR guys to get an instructor and you'll have a blast.

My warning was mainly for a DE where someone is not familiar with Porsche or 914's.

Hi Dan,

The car is still under construction. We will not make the TT's this year, but should be up and running for auto-x and open track days sometime ~August. It's been a long wait.

Did you end up finding a 914? Or you sticking with your Boxster?

Thanks,

Bill P.
