- Comments Off on Porsche Pictures from TwinSpark Racing RSR Brake Victory
We’ve just had more pictures through from the weekend’s racing at Zandvoort, where TwinSpark Racing took a very groovy 1-2 victory in the Porsche 911 RSRs.
The winning RSR of TwinSpark partner Lex Proper (below) was running our new-to-market Zuffenhaus RSR brakes, now available in the TwinSpark Racing shop.
Confidence in the brakes is a key part of any racer’s armoury. Lex reports the brakes as exceptionally fade resistant, with impressive bite and great feedback. Running late on brakes and deep into the corners allows for some exciting passing manoeuvres when competition is tough, so the TwinSpark team are very optimistic for a thrilling rest of this season.

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.
Winning with products we saw the potential of before they were ever built is a delight [...]

Just had some pics through from Leonard and Daan, and a few words about the Carrera PanEuropeana they are on at the minute.
This RGruppe Europe event is a drive from the Netherlands down through Belgium and into Germany. The guys were staying close to the Nürburgring for two nights and today have headed back up towards Spa, for the end of the racing there, before coming home. Leonard speaks:
Weather is awesome, 11 cars good crowd. Jan de Boer (the so-called Bumpermeister) tapped the Armco in a hairpin, so bruised ego there, but car is still drivable. We will actually turn the piece of bumper he crashed off the left front into the rotating trophy! Everybody more cautious and keeping distance to [...]
