[C.Plavan]

Here is the old "Musket 911" having fun with cars much newer, and holding its own.

<br />
Car: 1969 911E 2.5L (210 RWHP) vintage 911ST spec race car. No aero, just mechanical grip. 48 of the 50 cars had aero/wings/spoilers....Not this old Musket. <br />
<br />
I qualified 1st in class (GT4S), and 22nd overall out of 50.<br />
<br />
Sit back and enjoy the sound.<br />
Fastest lap 1:41.15</p>

Chad,

Great drive!

Funny thing, I too fought the right turns #3, and #4 most of the race. The car simply didn't want to hook-up through them. My 148 RWHP just doesn't cut it when playing with you guys.

Great video. Wasn't sure if you were gonna make it past the tire scrubbing lap

Nice work Chad, looks like you were having some good battles out there!

I really enjoyed watching the early 911's going around #4 ( from the outside of the turn looking down the straight to 5 )
Of all the cars those looked like they were having the most fun - some ( most ) looked like they would not hook up in time to keep out of the sand.

We saw your hands full work'n'it out of 4 Chad...............

Guys,
You can really appreciate this video. 1.41 is a great time at Laguna. (I have run Laguna many times and I would love to run these times with either my '73S racer or my SCCA Camaro Z28 1LE). This is especially neat in a car without any wings or big displacement power. This video shows what real racing is all about...not running for time but passing, trying tro pass...and getting passed...in a race. You drive the fastest line when you can and you drive a blocking line when you have to...and you get blocked at times too. You wind your little 2.0L+ engine to 8,000 and hope nothing happens to it. My congrats to Chad. He was out there in a little 2.5L without aero. He did great. This is not "bench racing". He walks the talk we so often see on the boards.

Just when I thought I got racing out of my system, you have to go and post this video. I see a few track days in my future. Well done.
