So the car is getting done and now my next step is to learn how to race (more) responsibly. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

It looks like this involves joining a sanctioning body, figuring which class , I dont' know what else.

If you have a V8 914 and zero experience racing AX where would you start?

I'm near San Francisco, CA.

Thanks.

I'm be glad to be in SoCal and have POC. A real treat. Good instructors, no BS, and they will take you from AX style events to full wheel to wheel racing if you want to stay the course.

It's amazing how few of our local members hear take advantage of this inexpensive ($150ish per weekend) venue. That's about half the price of a speeding ticket. In fairness, non Porsche engined cars run in exhibition class, so no trophies. But you get a transponder and your lap times are recorded and published.

Nice way to settle all those bench racing arguements (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
