I am actually surprised at your pace, those rolling chicanes did pass you but you seemed to keep in touch (sort of) for a lap or so before they were away from you.

How much longer until the 914 is done?

What track is that? I think too hilly for Button Willow, maybe Thunderhill? (Never been there.)

At least you're still going to the track. Since I rolled my 911 it's been 7 months! Aaaarrrgghh!

I added a big rear sway bar and plan to get more negative camber and brake ducting tomorrow.

Not a good sign...
