I did some instructing at the glen a few weeks ago
they smoothed out the curbs going up the esses, and in the bus stop, and they paved some of the run of areas, and put up a bunch of catch fences
Miles is on a roll.. carrots.... yeap

Thats not a bad question. Its a 914 with a 956 motor

No our car is a '79 930 that we rebodied to a 935
its powered by a 964 engine that we made to a 3.8, the crank has been re-ground , we use Clevite nascar rod bearings. Aasco spring Ti retainers, it should rev safely to 9000 RPM, Two injectors per cylinder, a modified K36 turbo , some other special doodads here and there
There is another video I posted of us passing the 956 powered 914. The guys that built that cars did a little trash talking about us.. so we just passed them like they were out for a sunday drive

After two days at the kart track I finaly have a way to show the Creature how to pass.
The judicious use of momentum and power plus good judgement will put you in the lead every time.
Me thinks after the last month a couple of very high dollar Nascar drivers could learn a thing or three by viewing this short sequence

Nah many of the cars Billy passed possesed almost 400HP less than the engine in our car..
Those other cars (996GT3rs/RSR) handle much better than our car.
In Nascar things are supposedly "more" equal passing the first 10 or fiteen cars was easy, its when you start getting into the group that is running similar lap times, is when it shines on the driver...
glad you guys liked it!!
