[moggy]

I'm knackered... just had the first test session in the 914 on some forestry track up the road from my house. Basically a session for me ot get used to the car and make sure it holds together. All feels really good, the car is very well balanced for rallying, seems like my guesses to the setup were about right. Can't wait to get the hi-po 2litre in it now. Looks like first full on stage rally will be end June. Here's the pics and vids of today:



vids are on youtube:

This is the first run

Fan-flippin-tastic!

That's really great that it's all coming together for you.

I can't believe you drove with the roof off - you must have been filthy by the time you finished.
