Excuses

I will be airdam less for a little while. Since I am repairing it I figured I would make a splitter on there too

no excuses....i would prefer to be at the autocross, hang out with the boys even at the cost of gas...but i have some comitments for the 100 mile challenge:blink:

Got the calipers mounted Sunday went to get the other new pads today and guess what wrong ones of course + one more day on blocks. and needed a few other parts. But i think i can make it with what i got

Picking up the other new pads from Chris`s today and more Motul fluid gett`n closer to putting it back on the ground.And installing the new Exide batt tonite after i clean up a mess from the old one

I was at chris's 3pm
Well no paint, some progress , was gonna be a quicky , not turning out that way, Going to be way better.
Had new tires ready to go, wont fit my other car .
spy photo, ralph meaney built the motor.

doh

well my troubles persist...got the brakes all back togather ,power bleed and then manuel bleed got half pedal and thats it.And then ran out of fluid soooo i thought drive the car to the parts store and maybe it will help! nope got worse so back on the blocks tonite and try it again...any suggestions or ideas would be great ...Im think`n there just more air in the line and MC..I will be read`n at other treads for help as well .....$600+ on new Cali`s $100+ on new pads $100+on good fluid and still no good AX is not look`n like it will happen

Well, it looks like Mike got his brakes working and he will be at the AX tomorrow. Who else is going to be there? I will be there.

So far I only see 9 914s registered We need more than that Even if you don't race it will be good to see you out there.

Dont be lam ...show up with your cars before the weather gets bad ..mite be the last good weather days

May be the last time I'll be able to make it.... Since I should clinch 1st for the season and I want to do things to my engine.

If it's not pouring, I'll be there. Just to spectate tho'. Although after Dan did my brakes, everything is working great now, and I really have no reason not to run.
Maybe next year.
Tom

You guys have fun tomorrow! Tom, your car will be fine, the bearings are done as well as the brakes. Wife wants quality time tomorrow, and after the last couple of weeks, I don't blame her.

Well it looks to be a nice day out here. Some 914s out here. Hope more are on their way.

Well our run group just finished. I came in first in my class followed by my codriver by 6 tenths. I will post pics of all the 914s when I get home.

I NEEEEEED a 914!

I know where a nice white one is for you. Then again I think you do too

Congrats Jon.

Thanks Rand.

So that win clinched the season for me. Now I am going to start on projects for next year.

I will post some of the pictures of the cars that were at the AX in a new thread.

first and formost Congrads Jon ....heres my rant.. The point system is FUCKED UP they need to take all events and total the points. it does not seem fair that someone can attend only5 events and take home first place. when other folks attend all 9 events and have to settle for 2.3or maybe 4 .I wish they would revamp the point system and not calulate a winner tell the end of the year.Therefor you wouldnt want to miss any events ..Not trying to be a whiner but damn it sucks going when you know you cant win .......So anyway thats my point of view only ...Congrads again Jon ....P.S is the pancake breakfast still on ......another P,S im on strike so there for im not at work and propable will not respond to threads as quick....Im up for pancakes and little bro too

Well, if you have 9 events it is the best out of 6. This year was the best 5 of 8. You have to have it that way as there are events that people can't get to. Sure I think it should be 6 out of 8 or 7 out of 9 but 8 of 8 or 9 of 9 or something like that is really not right as you have to be fair to those that can make it. Plus it makes some classes more interesting. Ours will be more interesting next year after you get that engine built and Chris starts to come out and we get a few of the other guys to come out. We do have a few really nice GTU cars that don't come out.

Thanks for the congrats Mike

the whole classification (the group you compete in) system is goofy.

k

Actually, after I am done with the job at hand, looks like I found one to pick up. Runs and drives even.

Not really. Pretty staight forward really. SCCA is the one I think is goofy.

Don't you know posting with quoted replies bothers Kevin? Stop it man!

Dan you didn't get rid of ol' blue did you?

kev

Troy try and keep up

Ihope i have a new motor next season ...Being on strike sucks !no play money or should i say no money period.And hunting season just getting underway !I dont know if i wanna spend the money for things i need for the season with none coming in.I will be at the pancake breakfast and i sure hope alot of people show up! Looks like the weathers gonna be good

Sorry Troy, I just couldn't hold out financially anymore. Michelle and I wound up selling every toy we had, just everything. Paid off the IRS and medical bills. Got us back down to nothing but the house again. We're in good shape now and actually have money to do things with. Once I am done with this current 914 job (I've been doing a few lately) I should have enough to hopefully pick one up from a buddy of mine.

well......

the hammers have touched metal....

do tell

Jeff did you get your caps?

the body work has started
just working on smoothing out the rear fenders and will be moving toward the front .
