Ok, I need to subscribe. Googled a couple of sources, but thought I would ask...
Where's the official home page?
THIS is about as close as I could find without digging deep. Anyone have a phone number so I can just git-r-done?
How about other magazine subscription recommendations while I'm on (er... off) the topic???

I finally subscribed to Excellence for the full three years. I was buying an issue here and there and I was probably paying just as much as the subscription price. It also helps now that I have a 911 since I find many more of the articles relevant.

That's the tube frame manufacturer I think. They have many www.ultimate914.com cars out there.

Ultimate 914 makes wide body fiberglass for racing.
The car was a series of articles in European car several years ago.

That's Roger Sheridan's car.
He's a great guy and has always been helpful to me. The Beast has Roger's narrow body kit on it. His panels are top notch (They FIT!)
I wonder why I haven't seen my subscription????
I wonder if it's in this stack of bills?.....

I think I am the Ultimate Cheap 914 owner as I just go to Barnes & Noble , get an Excellence mag and a latte and read it in the store.
Put it back on the shelf when I am done too.
I got tired of storing all those copies of magazines in boxes.
plus I can afford to buy more parts!

Once they changed the appearance of the cover the mag turned into a rag. I stopped my subscription. Now I have an excuse to drive to Barnes and Noble to drink coffee and read the 914 article before putting back on the shelf too.
also get to glare at FHM etc.

I'm pretty sure that Roger's car has the wide body on it. Mine has the narrow (or standard) body. I was just up to see Roger (and his car) in Paso Robles in May to pick up a new nose piece for my car. Agree - Great guy and great product.

Thanks, if that was directed at my car. The photo was taken at turn 3 of Willow Springs during an HSR West race. Currently the car is in my garage here in San Deigo.

Cool, is Roger Sheridan's car in the upcoming Excellence? My subscription delivery always seems to lag the rest of the known world (even though I've been a subscriber since practically day 1 of the mag).
I have a few pics of his amazing car on my web site:
