So, no this is not 914 related, but some of you may know that I was attempting to have my car ready to run the Chumpcar 14 hours of Sebring in Sept. As is often the case with these things, the OTHER drivers who were supposed to pony up have not to date, and I just don't have the funds to finish the car appropriately on my own. We would be a joke, if not a hazard and I would rather get the car sorted correctly and have some fun on the street then rush into something. Maybe next year.
However, I saved enough money and set some aside to cover my own azz in just such an occasion. I started poking around on the forum and met a great team from Sebring - a father, son and brother in law looking for another driver. Though its not a 914, it is something I'm VERY familiar with. '95 Mustang 5.0. Needless to say I'm very excited to be living one of my childhood dreams - driving a lap at Sebring. I'll let you all know how we do and post some more pics soon. |

Couldn't we just go to Avis and rent a car for the weekend. Of couse we'd buy the insurance. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I did that once ( not ChumpCar though) with a Toyota MR2 in 1991. Found the Picture in the Paddock The 1st Track Day on the 12 Hours Course for Clubs EVER. |
