Caption this photo.

"How many old 914 drivers does it take to put up a tent?"

Working hard on Erik's car. The Kodiak wheels that were loaned to him required longer wheel studs. All the old ones were removed by Dmitry while Erick made phone calls. No one local had any 100mm studs so they were overnighted to the track from PP.

Erik's car is up on my portable alignment platform.
My trailer can be raised up on adjustable legs and leveled. Once set up I can do toe, camber and corner balance on 914s, anywhere I take my car.
We both used this twice during the event, the second time after spinning across a curb in Thursday qualifying at fairly high speed. Erik had a slightly bent trailing arm causing 2 degrees of negative camber on the left rear, and I had an inch of toe in up front due to a bent steering arm.

Its a good thing we had a lot of time because there was a lot of work to be done.
Here Erik makes a ride height adjustment at the left rear corner of his car.

Chris does a valve adjustment with help from Len Hoffman.
Now Chris understands the special procedure involved in accurately measuring the lash with a long duration camshaft.

Cathy and Dorothy relax. Dorothy's big job each day was to make sure Erik and his crew get lunch.
