I created a new one... HSR Video. You should have it.

The video shows how far out in front of the pack those two teeners were. Listen to the symphony!

They're followed by a couple nice 911's and then Jim Patrick.

Les Long ends the video with his 356 coming into the turn. It was taken on my Canon Powershot without a tripod so bear with me. (still better than your average Andy shit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) )

Video will be available HERE in about a minute. (This is not a streaming file, so be patient...it takes about 60 seconds to load)

Great pics! I think that first 914 you posted is from Patick Motor Sports here in Phoenix.



And the orange one is from Becks here in town.

Does that blue one have French taillight lenses?

No but he was a bit slower than the rest ;-) And yes, that was Jim Patrick.



Mentally or mechanically?

How many engines did Les use up in his 356 that weekend? The last time I saw him was at the CA Speedway and he used up a couple if I remember correctly? Spinning those suckers to 9K make them into grenades! He and his crew can do an engine change in less than an hour! I am surprised Frank Beck did not win as his cars generally run pretty hard? The Martini car is from Don Clark's shop near San Diego and I think it has a 2.5L, while the yellow 356 has a mega bucks engine that squeezes out close to 200HP!

On that #59 car it shows hoses thru the firewall. Where do they start? I don't see where there is a grill in the front of the car.

On Beck's car, if I remember correctly the air comes from underneath the front end. Someone either here or on Pelican posted a picture with the front and rear lids off and I was looking at it closely last year for any new ideas. Similar to the Wayne Baker #22 914 air feed.

I won't think there would be much air under the car. But they are all running GT valances so it must be in the rules and they really don't keep air out from under there. With my deep spoiler I don't have much air under it.

Les's engine held up for the day with 2 practice runs and the race. He has most everything cryo'd on the engines now. He took first in class.

I didn't see where those hoses originated from on Beck's car. I did notice the forced induction thingy... very cool. He damn near did win. He was ahead of Lewis' by a car link (both basically from the same group) for most of the race. 2 laps to go and Lewis took it and held it. Both Beck and Lewis Jr. were absolutely screaming and running away from the pack. This was to be a 2.0 and under race but they had so many 2.5's show up that they simply started them about 1 minute back. There was something "very" different about the engines in both of those cars... as an observer, that's all I can tell ya. They both sounded the same and they both dominated. It was a untamed scream coming out of the exhaust. The video doesn't do them justice.

Eric,
I "think" I know the answer but could be wrong..
both of those top 2 fast teeners were 2.5L, right?

interestingly enough regarding engines.
I spoke with Henry Schmidt on the phone monday.
he "sharred" some information about 2.0 motors and a little trick they are using.
He has an interesting product which allows some interesting combustion chamber combinations. He said that 2 of his customers using this new idea were: Beck and Baker.

Its a little out of my price range, but I'm proceeding with some of these upgrades as a 2 year project.
