I started this on another site...not alot of joiners.
The idea is to test, tune, and tweek your car, and your driving style, to get the most MPG in a 914. This is a redo of a contest that the NY region did with 356's back in the day. These guys got 70mpg with one guy getting 100mpg. Alot of it is tuning, more if it is driving style. Here are the ground rules. We have several classes. 1.7, 1.8, 2.0, 2.0/6, and modified (all the rest of you), and vendors (special class) This is for 914's Using the honor system the goal is to win the mpg goal in your class. I am in 1.7 and aiming for 40mpg this first round out.. The contest will run from Memorial Day till Labor Day...this gives us all time to change things and tune things. This is meant to be fun with the 914magazine offering t-shirts as the prize...so its not meant to be for cheating. So, if you want to join, list the following. year, motor, tire size Use GPS or highway mileage markers to verify your odometer so we are all being fair. Rich |

Keeeerap, my 914 would loose right now (carbs suck and suck even when in good shape). I have a 74' stupid beetle that gets upper 30's average. It has 914 2.0 fuchs, can I enter that?
