went autoXing this pass weekend- what a blast. my car has no shifter bushings so rather than missing gears i just stayed in second the whole time. here's a video link and pictures.
first lap did a 74! it was so bad cause i was going way too fast coming into corners and also got there so late i couldnt walk the course and i was guessing! last run was the fastest at a 66.645 0.205 seconds off a 97 porsche 993 TT!!! not bad i guess! fun stuff! sorry the cars so ugly- it sat since 89!!!

Sweet...another sleeper 914 strikes! Those photos are a great example of what 914s should be doing, IMHO, driving hard in an AX instead of gettin all pretty and tricked only to sit in the garage all the time. Study those courses, hit your apexes, and feel the wonderful slip of being 95% in control (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

And those slaloms feel oh so good. Almost better then...... nah not that good! |
