A Day at the Track

Not only did I get beat by a bunch of Rice Burning Miata's today, but I had to be shown up by the local 914-6 being parked not 25 feet from me!!! Just kidding...while I did get beat by some fire breathing Miata's, the highlight of my day (really my 914 life) was going for a ride in Doug's (AKA Ein 6er) BEAUTIFUL 914-6!!!! This 6 was seriously cool!!! The sound it made...oh so sweet!!! Here is a picture so you guys can drool along with me.
By the way, those Miata's were running race rubber and all kinds of goodies...I get thrown in D Prepared cause I put the BMW brakes on the front calipers, I don't have any other neat tricks...YET!!!!
Maybe we can convince Doug to run in next weeks local Autox.

I get put in prepared because of my steering wheel. The entire car is stock, but I prefer a smaller wheel. That makes NO sense. But what the heck, a 914 is a MUCH cooler car than a Miata anyway.

Yeah I told them about the brakes...since I am in the process of getting trained as an SCCA Tech Inspector I figured it would not be good to have that scandal come out one day. Hey, I am not competitive in my class but I am beating the guys I know I am equal with...besides, with all my 914 stuff I don't have room for trophies in the garage
