Lap Times at VIR, Full Course Options

[roundboy914]

I was at VIR a week or so ago, with the zone 2 PCA DE, and i had a blast. Never run there before, drove the 914 both ways (over 2000 miles round trip - NO HEAT), and only added 3 qts. of good old dino juice. I did have fun, but was frustrated. My car is a 76 2.0l 4, with moderate suspension, tires, and some engine stuff. I was running away from the newer cars in the corners (especially the climbing s's), but was getting hammered on the straights. I was running 2:37's towards the end, but was one of the slower overall cars. I am just getting frustrated with the lack of power. I was sitting on the grid before my last run group, and the next lowest horsepower car was a euro 911 Carrera. My shit just can run with 996's and 997's.
So, my first question, what kind of times dot he local 914 guys run there?
Second, i don't even want to say it, but i am thinking that it is time to retire the 914 from track events.

Keep racing. Seat time is very important! It will teach you to be very fast when you install your first big motor. In my first race with my first comp lic they inverted the pole. I almost ssst a brick when the flag dropped. I was happy when the dust cleared and I was trying very hard to follow the pack. There is no substitute for seat time.
