Great 914 day out at Alameda AX today. I know 914's were in many of the top placings and I think Steve blew everyone away - think I saw a 53 second time posted at one point? Great competition between Nathan and Demick in FM at one point they set the same exact time to the hundreth of a second on the same run! I think Demick took a class win with a clean 58 second something run. ...if Nathan hadnt of picked up a cone on his fastest run he would have taken FM with a low 58.
I spent the day learning how to drive my car. My Yoko's just didnt seem to like the surface when I got moving fast. I also have to admit that I have a hard time seeing the course at times. I guess that just comes with practice. I still managed a to set a 1:01. Nathan, thanks for the tip on taking the inside line on the circle. It definitely helped my exit speed. |

All...
It was Andrew down in the 53's not me. I had to stop after my fifth run because one of the two freeze plugs for the float bowl on my Webbers popped out in the middle of my fifth run and in essence I was running a 2 cylinders. I only had 1 run where the engine was really running well - oh well - next Time. Congrats to Andy for running so well on Saturday - he is doing a whale of a job. Sounds like the rest of the 914Club had a good battle and most importantly was having fun. Steve |
