Re: Flares....
Nice purchase, looking forward to seeing how this develops. ...having passed through a number of owners with good intentions albeit no action and ultimately in a ghastly colour scheme.....I think I'm doing the right thing! I think you are doing the right thing too! I think I might have actually been...

Re: Flat 4 Drive : 10am 16 Sep Hook Norton Brewery OX15 5NY
Fantastic pics, thanks for sharing. Looks like a really nice little gathering - can I join you next year if I bring a picture of my (in piles of parts) 912e? Why not drive out and meet us at the end/beginning or maybe we can find a space in somebody's car? Good idea, I'll keep my eye out for next y...

Re: For RHD, would Sportomatic be better than manual?
My pet subject [emoji1]. Ha mine too. Left hand drive is best hand drive! Yes the pedals are offset for both rhd and lhd but in a lhd your right leg is pretty much straight out in front of you to reach the throttle and is comfortable for long distances however in a rhd the right leg has to reach di...

Re: 17th Annual Oulton Park RS Day 2017
Oulton Park proved frusting for me this year with a gearbox seal failing after just a few laps followed by an early trailer ride home which meant I also missed the Welsh overnighter :( .... ....being taken out in a race car on slicks is an experience I'll long cherish, it makes my car seem like a t...

Re: Any Hong Kongrrs out there?
Different era but I've recently bought a 964 that was originally delivered to Hong Kong (country code C15) and also has an option code 150 which is "No Emissions Systems for countries without unleaded fuel" or "Operates with leaded gas" depending on which option list you use - fi...

Re: RS day 11/3/16
My standard 3.0 litre engine with a 1in1out Hayward and Scott struggles with an extra muffler bolted to end of the exhaust pipe to get down to 100dba for Castle Combe. What sort of bolt-on muffler do you use? Wire wool does a really good job of killing the noise when packed into a baffle but does s...

Re: RS day 11/3/16
Jevvy, what noise reading do you get with your 'hooligan'car? I'm normally right on the limit for the static noise test even with a bung in the exhaust stuffed with wire wool - its the worst part of the day for me. I get the Mrs to do the noise test bit and she smiles sweetly at the testers which s...

Re: RS day 11/3/16
Me and Mrs will be there again this year after missing last year due to work stuff. We'll probably be in a 964 but may fetch the holligan. In my experience a newcomer should go out for the sighting laps at the start then sit it out for the next 30-45mins while the regulars get things out of their sy...
