The photos I took of people racing didn't turn out, (I was only armed with a camera phone and it's a piece of (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/stromberg.gif) ). I took a shot of Bill's 914-8 monster, but it didn't turn out either. I did manage to get a decent shot of Chris's and Rand's rides:

I wish I could have made it, I would have liked to see the cars and people. I want to do a 215 aluminum V8 so I would have loved to see Bill's 215 914-8. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)

Hi everyone!

Thanks for the invite. I'm the guy in the grey primer 914 that ran on sun.
It was great to see all you 914 fans out there! Why don't more of you drive at the events? These are great cars--a lot of fun with a lot of potential.

I'd like to invate all of you to come out to the PCA autocrosses at Bremerton. There's one this Sat the 18th.
Instruction is always available. And it's not to late to pre-register!PNWR/PCA

If you guys have any questions about AX or prepping your 914 let me know.
My wife and I have been diong this for about 9 years now and are heading the PNWR/PCA Autocross Committee.
We'd love to see more 914s get involved!

Hi Tim! Glad you dropped in!

Nice driving at the AX! It was great to see a 914/4 turning in some awesome times compared to cars costing many times more. High five to the wife! Very cool to see her taking turns at the wheel with you.

Ok... you gotta tell us more about your car. So it's a 2.0 (any motor mods?), upgraded suspension... would love to hear more.

Thanks for the Bremerton invite.

Hi Tim,
I have finally got mine running again so I will be coming out when I am in town. Seems like all I am doing lately is travel. Blair is back in town also but has to wait until his hand heals up to drive AX.

I went home after the races that day and told my fiance about your wife racing along side with you but it didn't help- My car parts budget is still the same. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

Blair fell thru a ceiling at work and ripped a tendon for his thumb on his right hand. Its in a cast..so he can't shift too well.
