And, when (if?) you beat me, just remember that you needed 50% more cylinders, 45% more horsepower, wider tires and better brakes to do it.

Victory? Okay, sure, you can call it whatever you like.
lol... Who would have thought my stock 914-6 is like the GT4 of 1970!

Dan - pre-registration for Sunday is already closed unfortunately. By all means show up on Sunday as a walk-up. We take walkups on a first come basis (so arrive early) to a max of 66 registered drivers.

Registration opens at 7am.

Yup. Even back then, Porsche was handicapping the superior platform to keep it from surpassing the sanctified 911.

He is. I've been trying for years to get him to bring his 914 out to AX, but he keeps coming up with excuses. If you can get him to come, more power to you -- he needs to drive that car more than just to-and-from winter storage.

Almost certainly! No jab intended. Just tiny tires is all.

When a guy drives a fancy car with big wheels, it is commonly said he's compensating for a shortcoming. So, conversely, when a guy drives a car with tiny tires, does that mean he's bragging?
