Category: Porsche 911 RSR

We’ve just won our first race using the Zuffenhaus RSR brakes, now in stock and on sale through the TwinSpark Racing online store.

Driving our early 2.8 RSR on slick tyres, Lex Proper came home in front of Leonard Stolk to take a TwinSpark 1-2 finish in the GT/TC Historic Touring Car championship at Zandvoort.

Racing on our home circuit was fun. Though Leonard in the Hulk has the advantage of a 3.0 RSR engine on MFI, the genuine Porsche ’74 RSR calipers and the wider track of Hulk, Lex’s long-time race craft, the light yellow RSR and slick tyres gave an advantage that was played to full effect.

I’m currently down in San Diego CA, working on some Porsche features with legendary car photographer, Jamie Lipman.

I’m typing this from a friend’s house. As I sit here in the den, looking out over the mountains and the border with Mexico just a few miles away, I’m reflecting on my notes for the feature we shot this evening. This is the Porsche 911 RSR of our amigo, Mike Gagen.

Mike has owned the car for over ten years. It’s been through a few iterations. Currently the car runs a 3.6 motor, highly trick with a flowed case and heads, Carrillo rods, modified cams and so on. The body features lots of fibreglass, including some mucho sexy bolt-on rear wings.

Another good day for Leonard in our Viper Green RSR: his second P3 finish of the weekend in the HARC Historic Racing at TT Assen Circuit.

Leonard describes the race as “no more tyres: a slippery game of chance in the high-speed corners.” I don’t have much else to report at the minute but will fill you in soon.

He’s sent me some interesting pics from the pre-race paddock and also two from the finish. That black and gold Escort looks like a useful tool.

I love this one on the car transporter, though I’m sure I won’t like the bill when it comes up at the next shareholders meeting. Boys and their (very big) toys!

Enjoy the pictures. We’ll post a debrief soon on how the cars went and, more importantly, how our TwinSpark Zuffenhaus Porsche 911 RSR brakes held up. Maybe [...]
