(Sigh)... will it all happen? We'll see.

1) sell the M3 so the 914 will recapture my attention. It's being neglected.
2) Install the SC flares & front arches (both raised slightly. It'll look great. I hope.)
3) fix the boost-creep problem I'm having (wastegate isn't keeping up?)
4) track wheels/tires - don't want to autocfross on street tires any more.
5) PAINT

6) attend WCC

7) post WCC: remove turbo typeIV and replace with something with 300+ hp.

Buy a new 914 with everything done to it........

Buy a trailer to tow the 914 to the WCC.............

Buy a new truck to pull the trailer.............


Or

finish the 68 Impalla and use that to tow a 914 Westward

Biggest question is which 914 to bring? Smokey or Dallas

yes, most years. quite a few national teams train there during the summer, or used to. crusty first thing in the am and it can get mushy in the late afternoon, but there is a sweet spot late morning to mid-day. tee shirts, shorts, and a killer burn if you're not careful.

My list is a 5 page spreadsheet and if I posted it I'd have to hear people's comments about my sanity.

But planning is good, you can do it while at your day job (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
