I have personally never had a problem with the 914 getting light at high speeds. Mine has alwas had the 916 front bumper. The rear end is a different story - usually loose. My laps time dropped 1.3 seconds on the 1.5 mile PIR road course and 2 seconds at Cal Speedway once I added the rear wing. Car is very stable now.

Hey Andy, It was your car that inspired my 914 purchase. To bad I cant make the Az. auto x this year but I keep watching the dates... maybe some time later this year. Larry |

Larry,
I see you are from the East Bay Area. I bought the car from Tobias Onley in Oakland - he bought it from Alan Timmerman here in Phoenix. It's amazing how these cars get around. I'll be at Willow Springs Raceway this summer with NASA. It's a little closer to the Bay Area than Phoenix. We have one more autocross before the season restarts in the Fall. I'm planning on attending the Atomic Ramble in Albuquerque and possibly Moab again this Fall. I hope to see you around. |
