I took the 914 to the PCA autocross on Sunday, thinking there won't be another one, so I will win my class. Of course this was my thinking last time, I brought the 356, and another one of those showed up, and beat me. So once again my plans for class dominance were foiled, another 914 showed up, and beat me. Ironically, had I brought the 356 I would have won my class, oh the irony!
Either way, three things in life I have found are pretty good even when they aren't, Pizza, Autocrossing, and the bedroom, never really had a bad example of any of the three, even when it's bad, it's still pretty good, all things considered. I drove the 914 hard and it did really well on the tight turns, way out performing the 911's and Cayman's, the skinny worked. Had I had more experience I could have probably gave them a run for their money, but I was too busy going off course and eating cones, but having a blast! Drive em like you stole them!!!!

QUOTE Washing machines? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) Sewing machines? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) They're Lawnmowers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Like I was thinking that day, call it what you want, but I was keeping pace with all the pricey newer Porsches, with a Porsche I paid $1500 for, so I got the last laugh. Tell her you could have bought 10 914s for less than she spent and she'd be in 11th place. |

The club gave me the un-official Steve McQueen award because they said I was driving like a car chase in the movies, a squeals and rubber. One guy said I was even drifting, whatever that is. But I bet I had more fun then the guys out there wiping down the tires on their Boxsters! |
