I've continued work over the winter and have a few more pictures to share on my continued attempt to improve my V8 autocross 914.

Went to an autocross yesterday and the results were promising. The modifications have allowed me to close the gap on my main competition, a rotary powered MG Midget. There were 4 of us in the same second most of the day. The Midget, Me, and a tube frame Cobra replica with 2 drivers. I think I ended up 3rd about 1.5 seconds from 1st in E Modified (which ended up being FTD as well) There were 7 drivers in the class.
Best of all is that the car just handled and stuck like never before. The tendency to oversteer was greatly reduced to the point of being a non issue. No evil tendancies at all. Now I just need to relearn how to drive the car again... Mike T |
