The Shootout is less than 3 weeks away. Can't beleive this is the first thread......
JP, Britain and I are headed down to do battle with all you Cali types. Far as I know, we have ~25 914's showing up. We're running classes, so you don't have to run your 1.7 against "The Beast". Come on out and enjoy some racing and good people.

I'll be there both days.

I'd repost this to the regular forum. I don't think many people check the paddock.

evidently not too many competitive types over here....
lots of cruising and pancakes, but not much real driving. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I think Bill D will be there in his 3.2 car. Its fairly similar to Andy's car but lighter. Good times ahead!

My money is on all 3 Bills to be in front of Andy and JP. The three Bills are pretty darn fast and are driving completely different 914's. Bill C will have to work extra hard however as he is only packing a 1911cc VW motor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif)

Still suprised that we dont having anyone from So Cal coming as this event is so close.

BillP driving the beast with semi tube frame and MSX gears along with 2.7L RS style motor with programable injection, big slicks and very light chassis.
BillD driving a mildly lightened chassis, with 3.2SS motor, very strong on cantis.
BillC extremely light, very low, narrow bodied chassis, running a nicely built 1911 on carbs....

pick your poison. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

by the way, all are extremely good drivers with lots of experience.

Andy should do well... I've seen him drive and he is giving it about 11/10ths.

Am I the only stockish car that is going to be there? I feel like I should go down to Kragen and gets some vinyl flames or something to jazz up the car a little!

Don't worry Rob, there will be plenty of stock-ish 914's there. Myself included.

Demick,
What is that thing, a reptile? I don't see any air under it! It is slammed lower than Dan's old Putt Putt! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

nope, actually Demick's car is a bit higher than the Puttputt. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I will be co-driving Grants chop top racer... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

with all the fast 914s at these two events....the normal GGR and LPR results should really be stood on their heads

Yeah, what Dan said. It looks low in that picture, but it's really pretty high. When I put the small diameter autox wheels and tires on it, it begins to resemble a rally car.
