Tony is not gonna make it, he's been sick and on a shake down run last night he encountered a tire issue.

Get better Tony. Get yourcar ready for the PCA AX in Bremerton on the 30th

I would rather wrench on the six then drive a honda..Beside the 30th AX is coming fast and im leaveing town again for 5 days for another fish`n trip on thursday ..and a family BBQ on the 23rd ....maybe i will get a wild hair a show up ..Does anyone have some August for sale I need about one weeks worth have a good time fella`s drive safe and be good

I got the ok to leave work a bit early so I'll be there!

ok, so, as in Texas Holdum, everybody, All In. See you in about 5 hours.

I've got to make a couple of stops along the way....so I'm heading out the door now. See you guys in a couple hours (ok so maybe 3, but who's counting)

Thanks Jon,

I took my tire to Les Schawb today for a check out, I ran i=on it flat for a mile or so last night. The guy said he would pull it off the rim and check out the inner cords and to leave it for a while.

I came back a hour later the tire and rim was just rinsed off, white a N/C chalked on the tire, he might have opened it up but I'm not sure. Maybe the rinse off was to clean off all the fix-a-flat crap that came out??? The original tech wasn't there but the guy say's looks like your good to go and No Charge. Thats good news but I would like to talk to the guy who checked it out to hear first hand, I guess he was gone. So any way I put it back on the car, lit it up for a second, It started raining so I put her to bed early, and well see how she holds tomorrow.

I'm all in for the AX. I have never partcipated in one but seen a couple. What will I need??? Helmet, gloves, tools etc.

Do most guys trailer their cars, Spare tires, or drive as is?

Let me know. I did join the Olympic Pennisula chapter of the PCA, so I should get a schedule from them, I think.

Let me know how Tuesday night went. As I told Troy that would be a great run on a Saturday but it's a strech for me on Tuesday night.

Tony

Tony... at the AX you need a helmut but they do have loaners if you don't have one. Other than that you really need nothing else. Some do bring them on trailers and some drive them there. I drive there and have a buddy trailer my tires.

Tuesday was a blast. We had about 12 914s in Carnation and from the North we had about 8 teenervan down there. There was a construction bump that ripped my airdam really bad but I think I can fix it. We should have some pictures posted soon. Fun times

I heard it.

Great Run ,Troy/Jon. good to see a bunch of nuts in one place.

I think the helmet has to be rated a snell 2005.

Jon, that sucks about your airdam!Damn construction!!

Good thing my father in law is awsome working with glass. It really got munched but nothing that can't be fixed

It was the best Teener Tuesday I have been to even though that Curt guy showed

I think it actually just needs to be within five years old.

Yeah, Damn construstion, but at least it is fixable. You souldn't even be able to tell when you see it next

Yeah, that was a bitch putting a lateral dip in the middle of the corkscrew. Good thing we were going slow or there would have been even more debris.

Resizing pics right now, here's a teaser of the north contingent out in farm country.

fun run everybody! I had a blast. I look forward to the pictures.

That was a good time!

Nice to see everyone again & meet some new people.

Jon thanks for organizing this teener Tuesday .

Oh I don't think I can take too much credit for this. everthing kinda fell into place

Here's some camera phone pics and a picture of my munched airdam

It wasn't the dip in the middle of the corner was it? I heard about 3 cars bottom out on that one heading up the hill. Sounded like plastic/fiberglass, not metal and I didn't see any sparks.

yup... that was the one

Just got home a few minutes ago. Had a blast. It was nice to meet a bunch of you guys. Those back roads were a blast. That has been the hardest that I've pushed the teener since I bought it (not that I was pushing that hard) and all seems to be working well. Didn't even have any hot start issues all day. The car may struggle to get out of it's own way, but the thing is a ball to drive. Thanks for putting up with my pokey ass. Tomorrow it's back to elbow deep in VW grease. Hopefully we'll see you round the corner.

Pete's Grill & Pub is an unspoiled country tav. No frills, just good food and casual attitude. Right on the main drag through Carnation.

Here's the lineup for Moron Monday ....er, Teener Tuesday:

Great time tonight! Good turnout, including some who joined us for the first time. Weather stayed warm and dry although there were a couple of tiny raindrops to make us nervous.

Greenie and I got to play on some twisties on the way home, including a spirited run down the Issaquah-Fall City Rd. Definitely an E-ticket.

One of those nights that reminds me how much I love these little cars.

Damn

Gotta get my car going. Best guess is the end of the year.

Dave

Double Damn ...that was a good turn out ....my six is still on blocks and the Calipers are still in the box wish i could have been there glad you all had a good time ...Tony the skid lid must have a snell 2000 or 2005 sticker inside regardless of how new it is

Pokey? Naw, you where doing just fine! our group home had Troy (1.8ish) Jeff (2.4ish) Jon (2.4) you and me (2.2ish) It was a lot of fun watching you hustle your car around the corners. you were not slowing anybody down. Hope to see you again soon. you have a great ride and I love your front air dam.
I was the last person in line going out, so I got to watch as people hit that dip. a lot of plastic and glass got scratched, but, on the last 3 cars in front of me, i dind't see any sparks.
I do have a question, does the little white stripe around the stop sign make them optional?

Funny I didnt have any issue with that dip
Just stay on the gas

When we were all ligned up by the railroad crossing after the 4-way stop, I heard soeone who was on the side of the road who was looking at our cars say how cool they all looked standing in a line.

I also remember thinking I felt my left rear wheel getting some air when we made a hard downhill left turn on one of the farming roads.

Great photos, and a great time seeing everyone! Excellent night for a 914 outing!

BTW, I notice that there were some folks that had their fog lights on without needing to have the headlights on. On my car this is not possible, the headlights must be on in order to turn the fogs on.

Was this a mod you guys did or is that the way they came from the factory?

JWest Fog Light Kit
JWest Vendor Thread

Miss those Teener Tuesdays...sigh

ahhhh Thanks!

It's an easy install too

Also lets you flash your lights without having to raise the headlights.

I need to get different fog lights at some point. I think the ones on my car are those cheap pilot ones. While they sorta fit, the have a horrible pattern. Definitely not a fog pattern which renders them pretty much useless at night (scatter too much=blind oncoming traffic) unless I wanted to tie them in with the high beams. But the highs on the H4 don't need any support.

Oh and Jon, I love your car, rough around the edges or not. It certainly doesn't help my motor decision down the road for the car.

Last night Greenie showed me a very cool twisty on a hill with dense trees on both side of the road. Both of us had our fogs on and it carved a tunnel of light to drive through, with the edge of the road clearly illuminated. Even though there were houses back in the trees, we seemed very isolated.....and we drove accordingly.



Thanks for the tour Curt, you've got a nice rear end.

Jon your car looks good in that picture did you polish your black balls P.S who owns the other red car with the fuchs on your right rear quarter panel

I really need to get dressed and back to the rabbit motor swap. Boy vacation sucks. See ya guys later.

Mike: That would be Chris Williams' (Effutuo101) car. It is a 2.2l Built 6 and he hopes to do some AXing soon

looks like a nice ride..as do all of them.........factory 6 ?? or convert.....Anywho sounds like it was fun sorry i couldnt make it

It's a conversion.

it would be kind cool to take it for a spin to see what the 2.2 feels like over my 2.0 ....then i would have a better idea about what i want under the bonnet

it's NOT your average 2.2!

maybe i can get a build sheet from him and look it over ..hey Troy that picture of you at the service station looks like your gett`n ready for your... its my suregate GF slash little sister act weres the cowgirl hat a the faggit shirt thats some funny shit there

well if you notice that all hte other guys are watching me with great interest!

and what are you you talking about "fagot shirt"? "cow girl hat"? man thats some style !




























Jack Ass!

H i Guys,

Looks like a great time, soory I had to miss it. Some day I'll have a rematch with Greenie.

I see on the PCA olympic Pennisula chapter web site the calander shows a Olympic Pennusula loop run. I'll get more info and maybe you gents can check out this side of the sound.

I'll definetly be at the AX in Bremerton.

Tony

no AX me me the rest of the year, i'm on-call the 30th and then my daughters soccer games thru this fall.

Well maybe we can all do another T,,T b4 summers end... ya know alot of cars and good peps

I used to have to do the "on Call " crap. Get some one to switch with and tell your daughter to can the soccer and pick up a helmet.

T

Can soccer? How dare you I do agree he should switch with someone for the on call one though.

Labor day weekend? NO one gonna take it

Have you tried?
