SHOESTRING RACING 
Hi, Welcome to SHOESTRING RACING, and I am John Mingst.......Porsche's have been part of my life right from the
beginning. From dad's 356B Roadster when I was born, to the 914 I learned to to drive with. I Started my autocrossing in a
Carrera, and now the owner of a 73 911T. The name SHOESTRING came about mostly from the fact that this about
equates to the size of my whole racing budget for a year. We do pretty well with what we have to work with.

This car is basically stock, with stock T bars, stock sway bars, lowered to euro height 25" front-24.5, 75 rear. More camber has been dialed in for autocross. There have been no engine modifications other than chain tensioners. Both street and competition tires are 205/60 15. The car has 80k original miles on it with most of original paint still intact.
