Spooling.... Please wait Group: Members Posts: 13,377 Joined: 20-January 03 From: Riverbank, Ca Member No.: 172 Region Association: Northern California |
You can drive during the day, and use your hand as turn signals!! Just put a plate on from the front of your daily! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif), Although It might be a stiff ride.. Its sometimes bone jarring for me driving down the street, I pay attention to the small potholes, and completely avoid the larger ones..

The easy part is the turn signals. See in Florida you're not suppose to use them, its the law. They are only to be used for driving down the road and not turning. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
People retire to Florida and forget the rules of the road and complain about how everything was better "up home". BTW, I was born here, like you couldn't tell. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Paul |

...throwing one more into the pot - I hope. My first try at a pic posting. Still a newbie I reckon, until the first car picture is successful.
Mine is a 914/6 [/4 conversion] vintage racer, first raced in 1993, always with VARAC in Canada. The quick and dirty: all steel narrow body [as per rules]; 2L six built as an S with some tweeks; built for fun; safety; and reliability. Most of rest of the build sheet is fairly normal stuff - happy to go into any detail if requested. This winter project is a close ratio gearbox to keep it in the happy-times power band.

QUOTE that looks like your spanking that mini cooper in the background! ...sadly, not! We have four or five well-prepared Cooper S' driven by - in at least one case - ex pro drivers, and they FLY. Never use their brakes, and always in a four wheel drift. I'd rather be in front, but watching these cars from behind is great entertainment. I'm about 2 secs slower than the best Minis. BUT I can usually count on more track time, as their engines and especially gearboxs regularly self-destruct. Then we get into the British car jokes! Gavin |

My new 914-V8. I bought this from a gentleman in San Diego a couple weeks ago. It is a '71 but has a lot of parts from a '75 on it. Resprayed yellow but did a pretty complete job of stripping first. It has a Renegdae modifiied 914 transaxle with 1st gear removed (or locked out) and taller 3rd, 4th and 5th.
It runs pretty well but needs a little tweeking. The cooling system lines are not run very well (one was resting against the header and melted through). Shifting into 2nd (now 1st) has been tough but getting a little easier (it may just need some breaking in). The rear tires rub (225/50-16 on 16x7 Fuchs) so I will be expanding the rear fenders a bit.

Yeah, it doesn't seem like it would be too hard for ANDY to add in more fields for users to fill in, like maybe a picture. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)
