one has the 914/6 suspension and brakes and one has the 914/4 suspension and brakes. Also assume both cars have anti-roll bars and 180hp engines. What’s the difference in how they perform on the track?

I take it you mean both have the same engine correct? Just the suspension is different??
as is, the /6 suspension should have slightly stiffer torsion bars and slightly stiffer rear springs if one used bone stock factory parts.... as for brakes, the /6 front rotors are vented, but that might not come into play depending on the driver or course... I would almost have to say that as long as you have no issues with heating up of the front brakes, there will not be a measurable differance... |
