We've got Jon prepping a GP car, the Stoddards and 'Bam914' both prepping DSP machines, Britain well on his way to nationals in FP, Jodi Fordahl already with FP nationals experience, and me prepping a DP machine. Is this wave an unusual thing, or is it more of a constant 914 stream? I'm new to SCCA, so I don't know if this is typical or not, but I sure don't see many teeners in my region. It would be bitchin if we could put up fights in all those classes simultaneously!

I'm doing my best this year to help the cause.
I have ran in 6 Great Lakes divisonal solos in DSP. In my little SCCA region I am running against a Neon SRT4 in DSP, most time I beat him, but I have to admit He did get me twice this year.
The last divisonal was Grissom AFB near Kokomo Ind last weekend. Got my ass handed to me, but I have learned alot. For me I have always been kind of half ass about solo racing. After running at the divisonals I have a greater need to be more serious about this. Don't get me wrong, it's still about having fun, but it is time to step up off the porch and kick it up a notch. Once I know for sure how my job is going to be after the first of the year I would like to build a dedicated AX 914 for SCCA.
I ran an old F Production 914 in XP last year (Moby) with 3.0 six in it, holly crap was that fun. I sold it this spring for various reasons (I know should have keep it), but I think I would either build for XP or SSM when the time comes. I can't bring myself to modify my 914 anymore that it is, I wan't it to be a street car also.
Stay tuned........
