It would be cool to see the ratio of driving to not driving members and their confidence in their cars. I'm looking for each member to vote on their one best STREET 914 car drivable or not. Had to put a race car catagories since I bet some only have race cars and they are important also. It would also be cool to see numbers growing anually in a positive trend. Its all up to us to make these numbers happen (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
If you have a concern with your car's drivability, post so local members can help if possible. |

When my car was running I made two long trips from Orange County to Mammouth Mountain ski resort (about 600 miles?). One trip was awsome- zero traffic at night (as in not a single other car on the road) and I was doing 90-110mph for about 6 hours straight with snow flakes falling in the desert. The other trip a friend and I went up to a campground at the base of Mt. Whitney (tallest mountain in lower 48 states). The campground was at 10,000 feet. We pulled in at the middle of the night, couldn't find our friends and turned around to go back down the mountain. We had to go slightly uphill again to the apex of the road and as we passed over the highest point the motor died. We coasted down the mountian soap box racer style in the middle of the night for the next 6000 vertical feet with no engine what-so-ever. Luckily there was a VW repair shop in Bishop. Once I complete my current restoration- I'm gonna do it all again, with AAA!!!!
