I'll point out the Curt Ormiston's 911 isn't exactly an underdog in 
ASP.........  I seem to remember hearing of some fella's named 
Holley  (sp?)and Mitchell that did "okay" in their 911's too (before my 
time so details are sketchy from me)!

FWIW, a '69ish 911 would weigh around 2200 pounds.  And updated to a 3.2 
with good injection, headers, etc. would likely make oh, I'd say a 
conservative 235-240 at least.  Hell, they made 214 stock!  And let's not 
forget they don't exactly have poor traction qualities.......
