sorry like I said I would suck at AX but I can turn 1:00 at Lime Rock and 2:20's at Watkins Glen..and get almost 3 hours of track time when I do that?

Different strokes for different folks. AutoX is not nearly as hard on the equipment as Big Track stuff is. The risks are much, much lower. The requirements (and actual need for, not just the rules!) for safety equipment are much less. And the per-day expense is also much lower.

I will be driving a 914 on the Big Track again. (Thunder Hill was just soooooooo awesome when I drove it!) But not until I trust my car more. I just barely trust it for a ~35 minute drive on the freeway. Not for being flogged all day at max load/max revs.
