Great vid. I am a proud owner of a 911 and a 914-6 and it is nice to see the 914-6 run to its potential. Best handling road car Porsche ever produced.
I love this guys vids. He rarely gets to drive the "line" because he's always setting up to pass someone. Very good reflects. His Lime Rock vid is outstanding, you can see so far out how he's going to take someone.

Damn nice driving sir ;). I have A '71 that had A 1.8 put in so I'm gonna pull it out and go for A six conversion with A 915 WEVO sideshift kit. Or just pick up this 2.0 engine I found locally for A few hundred and rebuild it at my buddies shop into A beast.
I watch your vids. all the time. My dad has a 914-6 GT pumping 254hp. at the wheels, and I'm in the process of converting my 76 2.0 into a 2.7L 6. Keep the vids. coming!!
I just bought a 914 and I need to get good power out of it. What's your setup? I was thinking of putting a turbo on the stock 2.0l engine....thing is slow stock
Nice driving, and the light weight of the 914 really shows on how much later you get on the brakes. Would you mind telling where you found that dash mounted rear view mirror, I want one for my 914. Thanks.
obviously the first lap of any race is slow due to not being at speed when the green flag drops. and passing 22 cars on the first lap (and being help up at spots) adds to the time. a fast clear lap in this race was a 2:01 flat. there is a video of what that looked like here as well.
about a 2:22 in traffic. I've done 2:17 in my rx7. It's not outrageiously modified obviously by that time. I'm surprised how slow the other guys are going.

Looks like a typical PCA meet. Just about everyone except the driver of this car are a bunch of pussies. Most Porsche owners haven't a clue how to drive, and are scared shitless of their cars. PCA is a joke, almost as bad as the BMWCCA.
your a joke. It was just a super light 914 with tons of power. 914's can out-brake anything out there and if you give it enough power something like that can happen.
I owned and competed in a 72 914 Euro spec. Every PCA event I went to, the long time members always shunned me and two others because they were true Porsche owners. THey had 911's. THey were fucking asshats, and we always outpaced them. After the events they claimed we drove aggressively, and put others in danger. Top speeds averaged 86mph to our 97mph. PCA can suck it.
pca is one of the best out there, it's too bad the 911 owners can have their heads up their asses. But hang out with the 944 owners they're good people.
@Ej205scoob Tons of power isn't going to make a car handle like that. The 914 is the best handling car Porsche ever built. He was weaving through cars IN THE CORNERS!
i just keep watching clips of this guy over and over and over. can't get enough! he is definately sick!!!! hope to meet and talk with him some day. (maybe pay for a lesson or 10!)
WOW is all I can say, it looks like if you had a flashing blue light on top of your 914-6 making way through the traffic, as if the other cars were in another race.
Next time take off the Nitrous, HA HA HA Just Joking,
Looks really good and definitely different gearing.
Would like to see the rest of the post so edit as fast as you drive so we can all enjoy your fantastic driving and wonderful sound of the 914-6.
The engine in this car is a 2808cc 6 cylinder with carbs. Nothing too special - stock rods and steel valves with a liitle head work. I do have the whole video, but youtube has a 10 minute limit. I just posted Lap 4 from that race, which is a clearer lap with two interesting passes. I am converting some video from other tracks - Lime Rock, Mosport, Summit Point, etc. and will post a lap or two from each.
Very nice run. Havent been at there in a while )

I would build the 2 liter out to a 2.5, add some compression, and PMO carburetors. If that isn't enough, drop a 3.2 liter 6 cylinder in there.
If you go over 200hp the 901 trans will need a cooler and maybe replacement with a 915
