I think it should be a good showing. I think Brad will be there helping to setup the Beast. I'm still sorting out my car and hoping to have slicks by then. I think Brad has arranged for discounted entry fees, but check the club site for details.

I just made plans to spend Friday night in Santa Cruz with my buddy so I can shorten my drive to Marina Saturday morning (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
I just have to remember not too have too much fun (beer) the night before the race or I will be too groggy and sleepy to make a showing - FYI that's why I missed the RR AX last weekend! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) After WCR, I think the only way to show up in style at an AX in my 914 is with a huge caravan of 914s! We had almost 10 in a row at WCR. I'll be driving from Santa Cruz to Marina Saturday morning, and if anybody feels spirited or organized enough to caravan down HWY 1 just shoot me a PM (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

We should have quite a few 914's headed down Hwy 1 through Santa Cruz area |

I usually take 101 from my place as it is faster, but I can head over to 1 just as easy. What time are you heading to the AX. I'm taking the LPR trailer over to Marina Fri afternoon, so I feel I should be there early to help set up. Chris, you have a good time Friday night.

This is going to be a riot. At least 3 fast 914-6's and a bunch of fast stockish 914-4's. Andy's car should be TTOD car with 3.6 and race slicks. I couldnt pull together my slicks in time - will get them next week.
I'd love to see us put Logan and that supercharged Miata in 4th or 5th place. There will probably be a screaming fast Works Mini Cooper on 710's too. |

I just put my last coat of Formula V traction treatment on my Victorocks! This is going to be fun. Anybody drive their dot-r's on the hwy? To & from the track or AX site? I'm going to run the azenis in the morning and switch to the kumhos in the afternoon. I'm thinking about driving home on the kumhos so I don't have to changed the tires again. |

I drive treaded DOT's as daily commute tires on HWY 17 sometimes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Those Kuhmo's will be fine. When I first finished my 914 I had big bald Victo's on the back and had to drive home in the rain. 2000 lbs with slick 265/45/16's over HWY 17 with sheets of water flowing on the road were a driving expereince to be remembered. As for Marina event I have caught a nasty head cold so if I show up it will likely be in my 4 Door Mazda Sedan as the last thing I want to do is prep my 914 and haul it down there with a head that feels like its going to explode.

It looks doubtful that The Beast™ will make the outing. If the AX were Sunday I'd say we'd be there for sure. It looks like we will need and extra full day to complete assembly.
The car is running now and electrical is essentially completed. But the loose ends are many and the car is coming out too nice not to want to finish it the way it should be. If we have a tremendous day tomorrow day and night, maybe we make it. At this point we will probably go to the SVR AX on July 21st to shake her down. Bill P. |

I'll be there shaking my car down for Hoopa. This post has been edited by grantsfo: Jun 29 2007, 08:12 AM |

He will be there the afternoon before to set up and will probably stay in an RV on the Infinion grounds. I actually think it is a good idea to shake the car down in an autocross setting. 60 second bursts of WOT and 4 times the turns of a track event. If it will break it will probably do it then. The only thing that doesn't apply to is the brakes. Gotta get them hot to know how they will work... I am sorry to say though that I will miss that event too... I will be herding grad students at a week in residence in Jacksonville FL. |
