Had a great time talking to everyone, McMark finally talked me into racing my car, hadn't done it before, but it wouldn't pass the tech inspection, cracked windshield.

I did however sign up for their taste of AX, and for a small donation, I got three runs as a passenger in a 914, two driven by one of their instructors, David, and one with his wife, Sharon (I hope i remembered her name correctly). Both are very nice people, and gave me three rides I'll never forget. Made me rethink both of my cars, McMark got a call today, and sent my brother an email ordering my helmet (he works for Bell).

But first....need to get the car to Sonoma and get the windshield sitting in McMarks shop installed in the car, no more failed inspections.

Thanks again Mark for posting the information.
Great Pictures Randy.

It's hard to here you due to the wind noise once you're running...

Was she quite short, and very talkative? If so, she's a Neidel. There are a bunch of them, and they have three things in common:
- They're all well south of five and a half feet tall
- They all talk 60 miles per hour
- They all drive 914s very very well!

They've been active PCA'ers around here for roughly ever.

Sounds right, she said her family was big into racing, 911s and 914s. And yes she was a very good driver. Here's a picture of their car with her driving. (hope it works)

I don't think people are able to post photos directly from my site without admin permissions. You can download the photo and then upload it to here as an attachment.

PIA, sorry. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
