Here are a few from the 2003 Lime Rock National in which I took the class win, against former National Champion Harold Flescher - among a pretty tough field of F Production cars.








And the in-car from that race:

WOW! What a move on lap 21...in traffic, in the rain. The race video is must see. Made me glad I'd already voted for the Tangerine Racer. This car is the the epitome of the 914...a down and dirty, nitty gritty four banger with the heart of a lion.

All these cars are worthy, some just more worthy than others.

SCCA regulations are very restrictive in some ways. For instance, I'm limited to 40mm carbs to supply an engine capable of 180+ HP, and certain mods aren't allowed. However, getting them to breathe is only a matter of being creative and spending lots of time making tiny improvements.

These pics show some of the mods I thought up to increase the Weber 40IDF flow capability.
Stock secondary venturi on the left. My ultimate mod on the right.

I found some tiny airfoil tubing at the hobby shop. It took some work to fit it to my setup though.
Attached Image
Keeping the venturi in place is a bit more challenging now.
The long bolt holds it upright and against the fuel inlet on the other side.
I turned off the threads so the airfoil tubing will fit onto the bolt.
Attached Image

Every surface/obstruction in the throat has been altered/filed/smoothed to increase flow.
The throttle plates have the edges re-worked to prevent turbulence.
Even the exposed pump jet tip has been file down.

Be happy that you have won innumerable plastic flags on a stick and maybe a bad dinner & trophy at the end of the year (SCCA).

All Erc has is fags flags that he bought & photoslop. I've never seen it off the trailer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

You're correct ... it was inside the tent at the Phoenix Club ... you pushed it in there and I admit, it was off the trailer.

I don't think you really wanted to edit that quote Eric.
