(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge24.gif) Hey everyone
I was hoping to autocross my 914 in the stock class in SCCA. My question is are stock 914s still keeping up with the new cars or is best to modifly it and race in other classes. Where you can pump up the motor ect. Maybe I can update the car it is a 71 1.7 with a newer 2.0 motor and parts and still race in the stock class. I am new to this 914 thing. Thanks Tony |

A tough road to hoe.
By "stock", they mean stock. Tire sizes, springs, motor...yada. One "can" get away with a lot of....er...stuff, right untill someone protests you. Shocks are free, tho. No mo bettter in CSP....tricked out Miatas are FAST...by any standard. ASP limits the 914 to 2.0L sixers....against a tricked out Z06?....hah! In FP, you have a shot. Greg Fordahl and his wife win at the finals on a regular basis. That's a full out race car, 2100 lb minimum weight....cept for the motor which has limits....no twin plugs, 2.8L tops. The ONLY Porsche win at Topeka last year. Only top 10 , as I recall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Next stop is E mod.... 1500 minimun weight, over 2.0L and a production serise body...use your imagination. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) |
