Chief instructor from a local BMW club called and needed instructors. I really dont like to turn down free track time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) so my friend and I drove up for the day.. My 914 stayed home and took a break.... so

heres a lap at Lime Rock in a 2004 Porsche 935. I know they havent made 935s' for about 20 years, but this is the beast we built. video just cant capture the sensation..

ENJOY
