I've been thinking, for awhile now, that it might be nice to have persistent classes for car judging at events. Something that would allow any 914 event to have instant organization for that part of their planning and allow a more broad comparison of cars from one event to the next.
For example, at the WCR we had the following classes: QUOTE Best 914/6 - This includes factory cars as well as conversion cars which use a Porsche flat 6 engine. The winner should be judged on the overall cleanliness and quality of their car. Any aftermarket/custom parts would be a detraction from cars in this category. Best 914/4 - This category is for cars equipped with a Type IV motor. The winner should be judged on the overall cleanliness and quality of their car. Any aftermarket/custom parts would be a detraction from cars in this category. Best Conversion Car - This category is for cars equipped with any motor not already listed. The winner should be judged on the overall cleanliness and quality of their car. Any aftermarket/custom parts would be a detraction from cars in this category. Best Custom Car - This is where the wings, fancy wheels, and custom stitched interiors come into play. RatRod - The winner in this category has the... um... least aesthetics but still runs and drives. No shame in winning here. What I'm interested in first and foremost, is would you like to see the same categories from event to event, or are things fine the way they are? |

Why seek gratifcation from the approval of others? The journey is more important than the accomplishment...
Thats why I work on my own car. Whats the joy in having someone tell you the car you paid others to build for you is cool? No joy there. |

Whats the joy in having someone tell you the car you paid others to build for you is cool? No joy there. I think most of us work on our own cars, too. In fact, thats why a fellow 914 owner appreciates and understands the efforts we all make to keep these old go-karts going even more than, say, a 911 owner. hehehehe |
