Hey Rhodyguy... I'm sure glad you started this thread. Otherwise I would have missed this event. Took my son and we had a great time. Posted some photos in my blog, but here are a couple favorites...
Nice twin-turbo beast, but didn't do as well as I hoped... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120437001.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120437011.jpg) This little Lotus spanked. Won his class... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120437052.jpg) Lotsa 356s... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120435057.jpg) Most entertaining car of the day was this Fiat Abarth. He DRIFTED all the corners! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/w00t.gif) Photo doesn't really capture it, but notice angle... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120436951.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120436980.jpg) The 906 was the most exotic LOOKING car in it's class, but he spun it TWICE in the same race and didn't do so well... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120435124.jpg) Last one for now... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/blog-1120437023.jpg) |

Yes, pre-1970. Except... Good catch Z... There was also a "Group 7" bunch that ran (maybe not officially part of the SOVREN event, I dunno) which included that 935 and a few other interesting cars. The wildest sounding car of the day was a rotary in this class. I assume a turbo 3-rotor beast... but it wasn't running quite right and he ended up dropping out before the end of the race. I didn't catch a photo of that one, but it was in a body similar to that last photo of the yellow car.
Anyway, more info here and more photos here. |

my wife used my weekend ticket yesterday. see told me there was an orange 914 with flares that raced. the 906 was going like a scalded cat on fri, lapping slower traffic. with regards to the build cutoff dates, locally sovren is tight. but... i think if you are a vintage racer from a region that is a little more forgiving, the newer car is allowed. there was a yellow 6 on displayat park place's tent on fri. i tried to chat the guy up a bit. he was more interested in trying to sell the $40k, 135mph+, 550 replicas with 165hp (cb performance), (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) type 1 engines.

The Red 914-6,( has aolt of GT parts) belongs to Bernie who wrenches on the white 935.
SOVREN allows 1970 and later in the exihbition class, Purpose built race cars up to 1976? The Class is filled with FFords and sports racers. |

Exhibition automobiles are significant purpose built race cars produced prior to December 31st, 1979 which do not fit into other SOVREN classes. lifted that right from the program.
