- Comments Off on Porsche 911 Carrera RS at Essen Techno Classica
Tomorrow morning, we drive from the UK to Essen for the 2012 Techno Classica. Porsche has just released details of a greatly increased AG presence at the event, which I’m really looking forward to seeing. Here’s their update:
Porsche Classic will be exhibiting from 21- 25 March 2012 at the biggest Classic trade fair in the world in Essen, this time showcasing its comprehensive service offering on a stand with more than twice the area compared with last year. A particular highlight is the legendary 911 Carrera RS 2.7, celebrating its 40th anniversary this year.

- Comments Off on TwinSpark Racing in 911 & Porsche World magazine
I’ve got a nice little mention for TwinSpark Racing and The Hulk – our Dutch GT Championship-winning 3.0 RSR – in this month’s 911 & Porsche World magazine.
Each contributor gets a double page spread in rotation by issue to talk about what has caught their eye. This month is my turn. I ran with a few stories from WEVO dealer Specialist Vehicle Preparations, Tuthill Porsche, Porsche UK, Nicolas Hunziker and dearest TwinSpark.

- Comments Off on TwinSpark Racing Chinese Christmas Party
We’re having a Christmas party at our base in Oestgeest at the end of November. All Porsche friends from Netherlands and surrounding areas are invited to attend.
The date to put in the diary is Saturday, November 26th. Leonard, Lex and I will be on site all day, with coffee and cake in the morning, and chinese food in the evening. The aim of the day will be to welcome as many of our friends as possible, to share memories of a great year for the TwinSpark partners, with winning the Dutch championship and also finally seeing our pet RSR brake project come to fruition. We’ve recently negotiated a new lower price for the RSR brakes: see the TwinSpark Racing Porsche shop for more details.
Leonard has already put an invitation email together for the Dutch R Gruppe contingent, but if you have not received [...]
