If you ever thought about rebuilding an old car and racing it..... DO IT.

More! More! You can't just show us a 10 second video........Great video, Thanks!

[Jeff]

I agree, that is just a tease. WE NEED MORE!

Your car sounds great by the way.

Brings back memories of DE's...... meaning, the "harmonics" or over-tones, when one 911 passes another...and both cars are at relatively same RPM..... cool sound.

Stop! Please Stop! I've watched it four times already at work!!!

What set up are you running in that 2.5L Chad? I like that low "howl" you get when you're squeezing the throttle back on at the apex.....dare I say McQueen in the 917 in Lemans?

And everybody keeps telling me to keep my barn find '68 911L "stock".......you're killing me here!

[ficke]

Very nice! Thanks for the glimpse

[Netspeed]

Absolutely need more!! For the people in the Los Angeles area...."You're killing me Larry"!!

[summers3d]

Sweet video! That's the way an in-car video should be - Great sound and nice visuals.

[DonDavis]

Holy Toledo!! That was awesome!

If you don't post more footage, we'll put a pox on your firing order!!

[david.avery]

Hah! I'm gonna make that my mobile phone ringtone!

That sounds awesome! More, or permaban

That was pretty cool. It looked like a classic case as the guy you were following was watching you more than where he was going.

Good Stuff,

Don

Thanks Guys. Maybe I will get the full video up soon. That was midway during the race. I could catch that 67 Camero (600HP) but he would walk away from me on the straights. I ended finishing 1st in Class, 2nd overall (42 cars) in that race.
You can do a search for 2.5L and pull up my engine specs. I'm in the process of building another 2.5L motor. This one should have a tad more "balls" due to the intake valve size.
These cars are a blast.

Here is a few laps from Vegas (outside track).... Kinda fun.... You can see when I overheat my tires chasing those damn 914's This one is 70 megs......

Thanks for throwing it on Google Avery. It saved me some bandwidth.

[jluetjen]

Blew the bandwidth already and I didn't even have a chance to download it! I'll have to try tomorrow morning.

[Plavan]

[david.avery]

Very nice. I would really enjoy cutting loose like that. Gotta do it before I get too old.

[DByers]

Chad, Need to see more of that first vid! That Vegas one I hadnt seen before. Those 914 were pesky little buggers I really need to get out and see you guys race again. Hows your season going so far?
