Here is a pic of Udos car after he went a little to fast and lost control at the ring, he was not used to these tires. I trust his judgment, he drives like a bat out of hell, and has countless laps around the ring.
I can hear Gustl b from here,

P.S. the other car to the right of the photo I was asked not show it.
Sorry...

Another view

Udo with a smile,
I would be crying my heart for years.

Its got that 4x4 look too! Whats with you Germans?

Geoff

I think the car is a little lighter without the drivetrain.

Grosse Speed Bumps Ja Ja...
They took out the engine and trans, it needed to replace a few things that broke off during the off road tour de Guard Rail.

Sorry to see your friend's car all bashed. Maybe he's smiling because he's not all bashed up.

Interesting tread pattern - do you know what kind of tires those are?

As so many have said in your other photo thread, great 914 photography!

ooppps!



JM

I do not remember, I will e-mail him and get that information for you.

Thanks

two words:

cellette bench !!!!

will straighten it right up! get the factory 914 fixtures for it (they are still available).
Andy

PS: coincidentally, i'm writing this from the *only* body shop in the greater bay area that has said bench and 914 fixtures ...

Those tires are some flavor by Pirelli, maybe the PZero Corsa. Not available in 15" I believe

So what is the story on the car that is "not shown"?

They look like a set of Dunlops I had. Someone gave 'em to me for FREE.
I had 225 - 50 - 15's on the back and 205 - 50 - 15's on the front.
I was told they are not available in the Amreican market and they came from Japan.
They were very good track tires. They had good grip and lasted a long time.

Sorry about your car Udo.

Atleast the car was doing what it was made for, hall'in ass on a sweet track!

Is that Udo's blood type next to his name on the sticker on the door just in front and above the number circle?

I would have to say yes.
Are you in need of his Blood, He's a nice guy, I am sure that for a 914 member he would not mind given some up.

yes we used the"celette"just to make sure everything is straight,about 4 or 5 weeks later we were back to the nürburgring ------a lot of hard work but it was worth it---- talk a look "quilmes
by the way we finally changed the tires back to the good old Yokos 032 R ............much better Udo mentioned during extensiv testing at Spa Franchorchamps in late october

Welcome to the website. A good contribution already. Nice to see the repairs are done.

the first picture was taken at Spa Francorchamps after the testing and the engine is now much better as u can see in the second picture..........take a look at his smile i guess he is satisfied with the car

ooops this is picture one sorry

I hope he gets the car fixed.

dood that's too funny.


M

Car looks much better now Is it back on the track yet?

Is that a spyder in the background?

anyone notice the spyder in the backgorund....


EDIT ...beat me to it

Yes, but unlike a common animal, I don't have to chase every picture of a :drooly: car that I see...




M

Back on the track, yes! Last racess had been the 500 km old Nurburgring and the 400 km on the same track - at least in the TOP 10 overall .

A very good feeling and a very good car for racing.

By the way - it had been a very good and competitive race too!

good to see the car back on the track ...
hail to the celette bench!

Andy

I had to put my name and blood type on the door and on the back of my helmet when I did my first race in Mexico a couple years ago. It is an international thing I guess?

I would say that that is a good policy no matter where you are racing...
