Fun day at the track yesterday! Yep Marty it was "only" 97 as there were overcast skies, but that means the humidity was up a bit too. Wow, I drank at least 5L of fluids.

Do you have any pics of the dzus brackets under your bumper? I was looking to do the same exact mounting stet up with some fiber glass bumpers I have as well.
Maybe I can steal some ideas and save some time! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)  |

Great looking car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)
I am looking for some 17" Fuchs style wheels. Any thoughts on anyone in S.Cal with some? Looks like you have a set for street and a set for the track. |

Looks like you have a set for street and a set for the track. Thank you! My wheels are actually 15's but the 17's have gotten very popular. I don't have any particular leads though. Be sure to figure out your tires and fender clearance before pulling trigger on wheels. Would be a shame to get a $$$$ set that didn't fit. BTDT unfortunately. For a while there my wife thought I was becoming a wheel collector. |

Over the years, I've seen a lot of " track 914s. This is one of the top three that's out there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Currently have 15x6 Fuchs on back with 225/50/15 with no issues. Going for some 15x7 Cookies all around, fenders have been pulled in rear, I guess I'll find out if they fit! |

Why this car hasn't won car of the month already is beyond me. Very nice build, Chris.
Your track wheels look to be Braids? The street wheels look authentic Fuchs? - never mind (I went back and read the whole thread…….duh) |

...because its a "race car"! Have you ever seen the lack of traffic in the "Paddock" forum? I believe ONLY one "race car" has ever on COTM as I recall the stats. Rough place for racin folks...it is absolutely one of the best cars I've EVER seen on this site!
PS: You think Chris has it bad...I've got a "race car" + a v8! True kiss of death!

That is part of the reason I keep nominating Chris car. It is one of the best on here. The one winner was Brant's race car, which is also a great build and phenomenal car!!!

I have no problem admitting I've "voted" for this car EVERY time it comes up...we'll keep trying! We just need more members who value true performance AS WELL AS "wax on - wax off". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
