Issue Two of Ferdinand magazine – the FREE digital-only Porsche magazine – features the Viper Green Porsche 911 RSR of TwinSpark Racing’s Leonard Stolk, photographed by yours truly at the recent TwinSpark track day at Spa Francorchamps.
Ferdinand’s art team have made a great job of presenting the story and pics in an eye-catching way. Though the magazine is only available in English, the pics alone make compelling viewing. None of the pics seen here are in the piece – you will have to access the mag to check them out.
The same issue features the story of our patron, Gijs van Lennep, and his Porsche 917 at Rennsport. This is the same car Gijs drove with David Piper in the 1970 Le Mans. Again, Ferdinand [...]

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.
Our track day on Monday at Spa was a big success. Twenty early Porsche 911s could be seen enjoying themselves on a dry, sunny afternoon at the legendary Belgian circuit. We had the passenger seat in The Hulk (above) and everyone who had a turn was awestruck by the speed of the car. That’s a WEVO shifter with SL shift knob in there by the way.
I hear the following day was wet and rainy, [...]
