The 912-6 rocks!!
 
Got the 912-6 on the track last weekend and it rocks! It flew out of corners and the carrera brakes were outstanding. Can't wait to do it again in December.

NO_H2O October 19th 2004 06:52

That would be and (E)xcellent challange. :agree:
Glad to see you got it on the track John.

Nice pic John! :agree: The 912-6 looks at home in that setting.

Helping out on the car, and taking a drive in it a couple of weeks ago really lit a fire under me to find one. Mabye it's the weight, I dunno, but that car accellerates HARD!!!

John told me I couldn't drive it anymore untill I finish and sell my @*%$#&^%$* Volkswagen. :laugh:

very cool John. i can't wait to get on the track. just have to find/make the time. clutch on the 951 probably can't take too many track days though. will have to be the bug. just have to find me some big torsion bars and get the backend up.

Joe, I figured you would sell the TR6 first, watch out, I'll find you a killer deal before you know it, might not even require a trip to MI.

Jake, registration for the Dec DE down here is open, Carolina PCA, you're welcome to come and play with us. :D

Funniest/worst part of the event was the drifter boy with the ragged out Tercell on the track. Definit back marker material. :laugh:

Zen, drop Rob at www.dcauto.com a line, he had a stack of torsion bars at his place, should have just what you need.

Very cool pic :agree:

I can't wait to get my car on the track for 2005 ... going into winter storage soon :( Wish I had a track that was open all year 'round near me :bawling:

Do you have any incar video ???

Didn't have time to get it installed before the event, but it will be ready for the next one in Dec. :D

I'll be sure to post some.

Zen,
If I can get enough ducks in a row I'll be headed there Saturday. I'll be glad to pick some bars up for you.

boygenius October 19th 2004 19:11

Good looking car man. :agree:

Now I want one. :mad: :laugh:

sorry guys. my reviewing postings has been shotgun method at best. yeti, thanks for the offer, but i think my ducks died due to lack of care and feeding. randy, any idea how much stiffer those are than stock VW? seems like they could be too stiff.
