My car, 4 years ago, an hour before it caught on fire and I had to repaint it.

beautiful shots, dan -- your car looks great...

my only thought -- are you getting enough suspension travel running it that low?

Not getting any bottoming at this point. Car has been on Sears point, BW and Th along with AX at Alameda with no suspension bottoming out.

I have had 4 914s and all of them have been this low....with the same basic suspension set up.

Never had any issues with suspension travel.

I realize you have a lot of 914 experience. the car looks good -- very flat. I had my car as low as yours, but ended up raising it a bit when i measured how much (how little) suspension travel i was really getting. car actually feels better a little (not much) higher.

Gee, Trekkor's car looks pretty low to me? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Especially the front end. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)

Maybe he was braking in the middle of the corner, which is why he is behind in the second picture. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

No, Trekkor was not braking in the middle of the corner. I was instructing in his car when that picture was taken...he was passed because he has a stock 2.0L6 and Gregs car has a very nice 2.4L S motor that has a 8K redline. Greg was also shlepping around 185#s less weight, and Trekkor is still on the learning curve. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I was just kidding and poking a little fun at Trekkor. I certainly wasn't serious.

I know...just giving a little background. It is always fun to kibitz about track stuff.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
But this time I was there....
