It may take a while, but it will.
I've seen many nice cars in person recently. I'm inspired to modify. It's a transformer, if you will. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Andy Schmidt's , Martin Baker's, Bill Pickering's , Randal Barrick's, Rich Bontempi's, Steve Nieslony's, Rob Ways', Darren Dowd's, The Jagermeister GT, etc. I have many items on the wish list...Don't you? My six in the car Five point harness Killer exhaust Freaky trans Crazy big brakes Rear flares ( like that e-bay thing ) Front spoiler Misc fiberglass 5 lug coversion Slicks ( track only ) Roll cage Removable track wing ...and keep it street legal. Ouch... I'm outta control. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) T Racer |

I drive mine on the street all the time, but the open exhaust and the lack of a license plate pisses the cops off.

14 Autocross event is 8 months? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif) Damn you are my hero. I guess I better get my shit together and get racing. I think I have 8 or 9. since end of August. I missed 2 because of weather and schedule conflicts. Do I get double credit if my son co-drives at each event?
I guess I will let him keep driving my car until he beats me. then it is (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/alfred.gif) Get your own damn car. I'm going to AX school Friday and Sat. racing the 20th. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mueba.gif) |

Yeah I'm starting to slip down the same slope as well. HPH is putting some headers on the car now and I'm going with brake pads more suited for track as well. I'm hoping to have race wheels with r compound tires coming together this week. Recent installations include 5 point harnesses, lightened flywheel and 911 clutch. Oh yeah tuna can going on since I'm trying r compound for the first time.
I'm planning on the following over the next year Cage - this is a tough one for me. I need some sort of extension that I can bolt on since I dont fit in the car top on with my helmet. Carbonfiber or fiberglass hoods, bumpers I'll probably stay with a 4 cylinder but dump my wimpy 1.8 in favor of a 2.0 or larger. 5 lug conversion Bigger brakes More aggressive suspension Probably bigger fenders and bigger wheels/tires too. |
