WOW Marc !!! You shoot some nice pics.

Who owns the red 914 ?? Great looking car. I sold one similar to that several years ago with ALL red.. the wheels where 4 lug. It was a 9146 conversion car with a crappy 911 2.0 engine in it.

What kind of camera are you using. You are either really quick, or it has a nice fast shutter speed. Either way, me likee, me likee!

I will ignore the attempts to cause heart attacks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) - and answer the photo questions:

I use a Pentax XZ-7 camera body with a Tamron 28-300mm zoom and for that day I used Fuji Pro 800 speed film. I have a 4000 dpi film scanner to get the images into the computer (I get a 20 megapixel image for each 35mm frame).

By the way - the red 914 you see on the track is a 914-6 that is VERY well maintaned. It scooted right along.

I was also impressed by the two Porcshe SUV tooling about the track. They sis have more body roll than the other Porcshes - but the handled the track rather well for an SUV.

Very nice. I would have never guessed those to be 35mm shots.

Mighty damn thoughtful of you, kid.

The pretty Orange 914 is Jim Chambers car.
The green 9eleben mit yellow stripe is ole Chuck's rig....and he appears to be sittin' in it.

I didn't do the track cause I haven't had a chance to fix the
high speed thingy. I can't be wrapping the shit box around some guard rail....my son would loose his inheiridence.

I'll get it fixed and take out there for some "testing". The track is almost as much fun as AX (where I got my ya-yas that day)....just less intense.

Broooook, bic,bic broooook.......who, me?

Actually....not being one to brag....there is this a guy running a mr.2 turbo in SCCA B stock, that regularly kicks my ass at AX. He was at the last track day in my run group. Me and the ulfster gobbled him up.....baaaad, on the big track. Humm, I kinda gobbled up everyone come to think of it. I don't think they'll let me run in the Novice class again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Hopefully, I won't be forced to do no mo braggin' for the rest of the year......just wait'll next year (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Talked to the owner of the red six while admiring his car. Didn't get his name but he has had the car since '83. Older guy (maybe as old as me!) from Washington. Got it from original owner with true 33K on the odo. Now in the 50's and he says most of those miles were recorded on the track. He had it repainted years ago. I suspect it is a color change since I don't think red was available in '70. Could be special order I suppose. Very nice car, still has the "snow shovel" rear valance.

Thanks for the great pic Marc. I have filed it with some of Bruce Allerts work. Not sure if "JP by the rail" will make the album though.
