Seriously though for the OP - I can tell you that, sadly, after driving with POC for around 20 years there are basically no (other) 914s left. There would be a class into which any level of stock or modded 914 would fit, technically, but really they've not been competitive in POC either in recent decades if ever. At my last event in Nov there was (1) other 914, a beautiful -6 with mechanical issues so not on track.
Here is the POC GCR sheet for calculating GT classes (power/weight) which is where anything with significant mods lands these days.
http://www.porscheclub.com/wp-content/uplo...-Appendix-D.pdf Of course GT1-GT4 are the "big dog" classes, extremely competitive experienced racers with some $$$ budgets...
Unfortunately about the same with VARA in SoCal as well -- last event, zero 914s. However, this field is where a 914 could be fun and competitive, if anywhere...Datsun 510s, MGs and so forth. Except they run mainly the big/fast tracks which again, not much fun in a 914...
Chris,
that used to be my experience in PCA club racing too. 914's disappeared and technology moved on into water cooled cars. I have a hard time believing that I would be satisfied moving back to PCA in their new "vintage" classes...
I believe they have 6 of these vintage races across the entire US per a season?
even If I'm wrong on that number... I know PCA only has 1 race a year in a region
so small fields with lots of travel... hmmmm
Vintage is the way to go
especially a good period correct vintage club like CVAR or RMVR, etc.
we have 7 914's currently in rmvr
they don't all show up at every event
but they run in a small bore run group with mostly british and Japanese cars
often 30 or more cars in the field and on the track at once!
Chris, you need to take your car vintage racing
you may need to dial back the prep a bit, but competition and multiple cars to play with can be just as fun as giant horsepower and displacement.
