I've decided to retire the former #628 race car (anyone want to buy a car that you can go on the track with by just stuffing an engine/tranny in?) and have purchased a new tub and a load of new parts to put on it. The idea is the same as last time, be competitive in Auto-x and Time Trials and learn enough to run in the Porsche Racing Club. The first 2 goals we did fine in with the previous car, but catching the big bad boys was going to be difficult with a 2.7 litre 6 car....

After blowing the engine at Buttonwillow....I had to decide what to do...so since it's only money.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif)

Here we go....

Trekkor...I hope you enjoy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

To shift the darn thing...you need a bigger transaxle...

I have a 915 core...it's getting the full WEVO treatment....sideshift package, gateshift, short gears, Guard LSD...on and on and on....

You need a DME flywheel to fit in with the 915 so here it is! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Show the 915 (soon to be WEVO converted)... oh.. let me know if/when you are ready to order the LSD for the 915. I just talked with PaulG a few days ago.

And a clutch...

Centerforce unit...I was going to go superlite, but my wife will be driving the car and for auto-x it will be easier for her (and me) with a flywheel/clutch combo with a little weight to it...

The brain trust working on this car is awesome...I have access to personally talk with and brainstorm ideas with the folks from HPH (Brad, Rich), WEVO (Hayden, Tracey), and Smart Racing (Rich). They all kick ass and this car is going to rock...

There is a list of goodies on this car that are either on it or will be on it that should make the car VERY competitive. Where as the next step for mid-engine is Boxster...I'm going to stay 914 and try to update it with the latest technology...until I buy a Boxster! (I'll let Brad do the development and buy the package later.....yeah right...how much will that be???? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) )
