914 V8, Would PCA let you run at DE?
 
Would PCA let a V8 converted Porsche run at a DE? I know they no longer consider them true Porsches, but would they run under special interest or something? Anyone with experience because Putnam Park is just a jog over from me and P-cars run there quite often. TIA

Depends on the PCA region. The locals (Zone 7 here in N. California) would not. Other regions would. You'll have to check with your local people to find out.

LOL. the OCR even let a Cayenne turbo run at the last AX.
Darn thing finished in the top 6. I hate that :)

Here on the East Coast, seen some SBC Porsches. No problem as long as the car passed tech.

you can always run a Porsche V8..... If you believe in life forms from another planet......SmileWavy

I left before the final runs so I didn't get to see the cayenne's times, I was basing that on the results that Mike Graf e-mailed me. It didn't include the cones I guess.

That thing was much faster than I expected, it didn't plow anywhere near as much as I expected a pig that size to do.

I got a kick out of Paul Kramer's Audi TT station wagon with 4 helmets in it, one in every door window. That thing is very fast for a grocery getter. 'Course it aint 'zackly stock ;)

Did the Miata guys behave? I was betting they were gonna knock down every cone in the place before it was all over.

BTW, a couple years ago I took my V8 powered 914 to Irwindale, got 7th fastest time of the day. With my driving technique that is really saying something. A real driver prolly could have gotten into the top 3.
