A couple weekends ago, Nadine and I ran in the 8th edition of SCCA Chasing the Dragon Hillclimb with our trusty 914 - Huey. While not the most powerful or best race 914 around...I still managed a solid 1st place and Nadine 3rd in GT2 class.

Here are a couple video's of the fun...YES the course is VERY rough!!!

One of my runs with Nadine in the passengers seat:

Nadine had a real tough time just holding on!!

It FEELS so much faster than it looks in the videos....

Great videos!! Congrats on the win!!

I don't know why videos always seem to make cars look slower, hills become flatter and people fatter. biggrin.gif

I've taken some videos where I was on the edge of out of control at times, but when you play them back it looks like a Sunday drive to the store. . . confused24.gif

I always look forward to your videos!! Thanks for sharing. . .

Nadine was way off her best times from last year...we think that's because she doesn't drive much anymore. Seriously...she works from home all the time, and when we go out, I usually drive. She realized sometime in May that she hadn't driven ANYTHING in a couple months!!! She just needs to get seat time...ANY seat time...to feel comfortable actually driving and pushing the car. she needs to develop that trust that just comes with time behind the wheel.

But she had a blast as always. It's so much fun doing this stuff together!!

She is an AWESOME driving instructor. Loves to do it and especially loves instructing women and trying to get them into this crazy sport.

Ha!
I was wondering if our video's started getting hijacked with commercials!
