I’m currently in California, writing this on the porch at WEVO towers in beautiful San Francisco sunshine. Leonard is just about to arrive and pick up a 911 to take to Monterey. We’ll be spending the weekend down there at Rennsport Reunion.

We are just returning from the season finals of the Dutch GT /TC championships. Our final races were held at the legendary Nürburgring race track. There was a lot at stake for me this weekend, because I only had a five-point lead on our friend Henk van Gammeren and his gorgeous black and gold Ford Escort. It meant that failling to finish in the points in one of the two races would have destroyed my chances for the championship.
Our little convoy left the Netherlands on Friday afternoon, with the Team Twinspark race transporter driven by Lex leading the charge. Four classic 911s were on board, with the Cayenne towing [...]
