I was looking through the FIA website recently and came across homologation papers for 914/4 from January 1970. It was homolgated by Volkswagen for Group 3 racing.
I haven’t had a chance to translate it (from German) so don’t know exactly what the specs are. If anyone has a English copy please let me know. https://historicdb.fia.com/sites/default/fi...004_group_3.pdf Interested to know if anyone have any information about these cars racing in period. Info about racing 914/4’s in Europe under FIA rules doesn't tend to come up very often so was curious to hear what you guys know. No mention of them in the Racing 914’s book aside from a few results. Thanks |

The first 914/4 to run in a FIA race was at the 1975 12 hrs of Sebring. There was not another until 1979 when Wayne Baker's highly developed 4 ran the joint FIA/IMSA in America. I have no record of any in Europe.
