Dan Thompson at Laguna Seca, in the Pickering 914-6 Options

[nine14cats]

Okay,

Here's our own Dan (Almaden Valley) driving the Pickering 914-6 in class GM form at Laguna Seca. Dan was turning 1:49's during this session. It was the 2nd time he had driven the car (the first was at Thunderhill).

1974 914-6 conversion
2.7L, 10.5:1 JE pistons, big cams (webcams), headwork, knife edged crank, weber 40's. 901 KA, Q, V = 3rd, 4th 5th. Open diff during this period of time.
15x7 cookies all around with Hoosier 23x9.5x15 canti's in R45 compound.
23mm T-bars, 250lbs springs, 22mm welt front bar, stock rear sway connected.
Bilsteins all around. Car was still heavy.

I am editing a video right now of the same car 1 year later with 450lbs rears and 27mm smart bar upfront and 300lbs of metal taken out of the car. I'll post that later.

You can see Dan's lines and how he uses the entire track to maintain speed.

Enjoy!
