Porsche 914 in IT

Can't see it working. From a PCA Club Racer I know, the J Stock 914's can't keep up with his 924 on the straight... and in my ITA 924, I can't keep up w/ many ITA cars on the straight. So I can't see it being an improvement in ITA.

If you're hell-bent on running the 914, but looking for a more exciting and competitive series than PCA and run in the Midwest or east coast, you may wish to check out an alternative w/ NASA (gratuitous plug inserted here): GTS Challenge. German cars, mainly Porsches and BMW's, under a modified 13/13 rule, but with IT-level of competitiveness and driving skill. More info including schedules at:

I'm sorry to hear this. I loved my old 914, which I sold to a buddy who promptly dropped in a Porsche 6 cylinder. That solved the straight line problem.

He now wants to sell it back to me. Of course, if I put it on the track I'd get severely dusted in SP.

Hey, not a bad performance for a /6!

Too bad the 4 banger isn't competitive in IT. The car is a grin to drive.

Well, Greg, the GTS Challenge _is_ working its way down to the SE Region, and you certainly would be able to play (and NOT get dusted) there!

Hmm.

Yeah Vaugh, we could have a 9X4 race! Oops, probably different classes.

FP would be a major project, but the /6 and slicks would make for a fun ride.

I think there was a class win at LeMans years ago.

I don't have the time for a full-blown race build. Is there a class for this car in SS?
