Fantastic! That track is so fun to drive with "normal" cars. I can not wait to get there with my 914 some day (or year). Been there with my bike and Quattro,
The very best track I know! |

That's a 1.7.
He has a couple other videos on YouTube. Would love to drive a 914 on that track. Guess Forza3 will have to do for now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

I hate to be that guy who criticizes someone else's driving in a video, but oh my god he was slow, had terrible lines and I think he spent more time looking in his mirror than straight ahead. But then again he may not have been trying to go very quick and/or may have been a ring newbie. It reminded me of a 6/10th touring lap. It was nice to see a 914 on the ring however.

Wow ... didn't any of you realise that he needs a windage tray his oil pressure light comes on at around 2:30 like the 8th or 9th turn after the start finish.

I don't think that's the correct way to enter that corner. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I think 99% of the folks here are at least a bit envious. I know I'd give much to drive my 914 on the 'ring at any speed. |
