Hello-
We just completed the 1200 mile trip back to our home in Jacksonville, FL this past weekend from Michigan, where we became the proud new owners of #535. The previous owners, Serge & Carol, were terrific and the coach was even better than we expected. Our next excursion is already planned... a trip to Daytona International Speedway for a race weekend. I'm surely looking forward to chilling in #535 after getting out of the race car! We hope to meet some other owners and become regular contributors. Thanks All

Looks like you found a great coach Dave and Nina. Let us know your experiences with your new coach. Good luck with that 914.

Dave & Nina,
A big Guru welcome to the forum. We own coach #531 so our systems should be similar. If you have any questions or need assistance feel free to ask.
We used to road race at the now gone Riverside Raceway in SoCal back in the 80s. Have fun...............

Many years ago, my brother owned a 914 until one day on the drive into San Francisco from Sonoma, he noticed his right rear wheel passing him heading into the ditch. Unfortunately, the 914 headed into the opposite ditch and was totaled.

Another lifetime PCA member here .... Held a record for a carting lap at PBIA where I also raced MINI's and they had a great drag strip adjacent. At Sebring, led more in the parade laps in my TC racing almost nothing but "GT"s.....
Welcome aboard and I might expect some Rally participation if Steve "BrawnyMan" Magown and I can get one organized at our meet next year...
