Picked up my f/g hoods from HPH yesterday. Bontempi made a mistake, they were'nt 11lbs...they were 10lbs!
I picked up the aluminum hood pins as well...they seem quite a bit lighter than the steel ones. Rich has them on his car and he gets his up pretty quick! Now to just decide on the last pieces....do I get a Sheridan nose, or stay with the stealth look and replace the bumpers with f/g? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Anyone know what the headlight and motors weigh? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Lighter=faster..... Bill Attached image(s) |

Hey Rob, Tell me about it...at the time being up on 2 wheels didn't feel bad or scary, it just looked weird from the drivers seat watching and feeling the righ side of the car come off the ground. It was only after the event did I think about what could have happenned. People say you can't get a 914 with a widened track up on 2 wheels....I say the right speed, surface, tires, and slip angle (or lack there of), will bring you up.... I wonder if being lighter will help this or hurt? Hmmmm......we'll have to wait till next year to find out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Bill |
