- 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.
The pic featured was taken by Leonard, on the day that Lex Proper cut the roof off The Hulk and welded in a sunroof-free panel. That week, the car was repainted up top and inside, ahead of our Spa track day. Everyone loved it in Belgium, so the work clearly paid off.

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, [...]

- Comments Off on Phoenix from the Flames for TwinSpark Racing
We were delighted to receive an order from new UK Porsche builder David Fitzgerald this week.
David has taken over the ashes of the former Sean Lockyear Porsche business in Yorkshire, and is working on some classic 911 race and rally builds for customers. The new cars will feature a range of parts from TwinSpark Racing, including WEVO Porsche transmission parts.
Well-known English engine builder Mike Bainbridge is also connected to the enterprise. Mike and David have been dividing work according to their strengths: Mike is building some transmissions for David, while David carries out some Bainbridge chassis work. It’s all good business, and great to see new life in the Porsche world despite the media doom and gloom.
TwinSpark racing is always happy to discuss [...]
