Here are pictures from this morning. I tried to get pictures of most everyone's cars. There was a very fast 'non-windshield' car from Sacramento, but my battery had died by then (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Alameda AutoX 04/10/04

Enjoy!

Yea...Brad, Andy, Angel (my wife) and I were up at HPH late Friday night getting everything together and putting those stickers on all the cars going to the autocross. I think Andy and I counted 5 or so stickers.

It was my first autocross and I am really happy that I went, I had a blast. My little 1.7L with no sway bars really wasn't all that bad. I think I might actually put some money in it, lower it from 4x4 level, and get it corner weighted and balanced for the next event. Now I really need to get my 912 done so I can have a bit more power.

Looks like you guys had a blast! I was monitering this thread wanting to drop by, but I had a rough framing inspection by the structural engineer for my house I was fretting about today. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I will try to make it out next time w/o 914, but just to help out if I can. Please post again when the next AX happens. . .

Britan, remember these are momentem cars so a set up 1.7 car can do very well.

I wanna know how much help that big ass spoiler helps?

ChrisReale, How come your car still isn't done? Man, your car has been under the knife forever.

Man o Man.. I really really feel bad for the rest of the 914 people in the USA. When was the last time you had 20+ 914's show up to an AutoX ??

I had fun (even though we did a spring change on the winged car and I got through 80% of a clutch cable change on another car)

Thanks for the shot Andrew. I learned in that moment (that you caught on camera) that Bill Pickering had too much negative camber in the rear of his car for his selected tire.

If more Bay Area people are interested in running their car.. please watch the calender of events or contact any admin about dates/times. As you can clearly see it is all about fun and getting out in your 914. Several of us help "coach" and "guide" you through a AutoX day.

This is understeer for those of you following along at home.

We dialed it all out by raising the rear spring rates 100lbs from 250lb to 350lb. He finished in the top 3.

This is the V8 914 that had the oil and water coming out of the oil pan I shot a few weeks back. The injection is not 100% and has a weird flat spot from full throttle. George the owner and I will get it squared away with a dyno tuning session and a O2 install. The car now has a Tarret bar installed.. nice and flat...

Andrew, why don't you resize those pics for everybody?

You know that you can do it all in one shot in batch mode, right? Even the freebee Irfanview has a nice batch mode facility. It would only take a minute or two to resize all those to 1024x768 or 800x600.

I cannot make this car run *crisp*. The IDA 3C's Webers keep bogging the car in tight turns. The last issue I found with it: the throttle shafts are well worn out. I tuned it the best I could, but until the shaft issue is taken care of.. I think all the bottom end is going to be sluggish.
