Nobody knows it all, but I only answer questions that I know I can help with. I can't type either, but I will try to answer every question directed at me. TTOD OTTO

This board just keeps getting better. If I'm not careful, I might just learn something....

Yep, welcome.
Otto is local to me and has helped me turn my 914 from a somewhat neglected, average old p-car into a very clean & reliable street/track car over the last couple of years. I try to do a fair amount of work myself, but sometimes there is no substitute for having such extensive experience. On several occassions, I have called the shop when the car was doing something weird, and Otto knew the problem and how to fix it before I even finished my sentence. Seriously impressive. Oh yeah, he kicks-ass out on the track too. I guess the monster 914/6 race car helps a little bit. Out at Streets of Willow, he runs about 15-17 seconds quicker than me...admittedly I am kind of a newbie and in a low-powered car. But the next fastest guys in the big 300+ HP 911's and 951's etc are always at least 3-6 seconds slower too.

"Otto" rebuilt the trans in my 914 a few years ago, did a great job. Cool guy to deal with. Always nice to have the experience of yet another true pro on this board!

He also drove my 911 in Las Vegas (LVMS). I was very impressed (and, to be honest, a little terrified). He's a great driver.
