DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

A note to say that I'm racing an Aston Martin DB2/4 at this years Classic Le Mans reg. UWL 333 in Plateau 2 It might be an Aston but there will be DDK'ers at the wheel! Do come and say hello - Pete Flatt & Donald Flatt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs5b-wXt-2E [img]C:\Users\Claire\Pictures\2008...

I raced last year - but in a '52 Aston DB2/4, sharing with my dad. It was totally awesome especially the night session. There's nowhere else you can go flat out in the middle of the night - and it was serious wheel to wheel racing. Great fun. As Philip said, your car would need good history to get i...

hello I inadvertantly snapped the trigger on my '72 E door handle the other day. Don't know my own strength.... :shock: It's probably just a matter of time before the other one gets smashed, after which I'll have to jump in through the window like the Dukes of Hazard. Which would not be good. If any...

I'm planning on attending a track eve at Silverstone this Weds.
Bit late notice ... but let me know if anyone fancies coming along - I'll be in the 2.4 e

organisers are goldtrack and it costs £139 5-8pm open pit lane.

cheers

Thanks for the good luck wishes... v. exciting but I'm a bit nervous as the only reference I have is Mr. Bell's 'In Car 956' vid. Not sure how useful that's going to be as the old dear I'll be racing needs a couple more miles to stop! :shock: Definitely can put a DDK sticker in the window Hot 66 - n...

Hi All I'm going to be sharing a drive with my Dad in his DB2/4 Aston at the Classic Le Mans. Look out for a dark blue car reg UWL 333 (Flatt / Flatt / Flatt) We're in Plateau 2 and would be really pleased to say hello to fellow DDK-ers :alien: Come and find us in the paddock - Pete http://i286.phot...

Hi Barry
Good to hear from you - yes all's well with the E - hoping to take it to Le Mans classic (where I'm racing the aston with papa! )

Pete

Well... the E certainly seems to be well known. V pleased to get a unanimous thumbs up

James - Barry told me about the blue gulf 911 - would love to see a pic.

And McDarcy & I are neighbours it turns out...

I'm def up for an event - what's the score here?

How about that - Mapesbury is next door!
in that case I'm sure I'll see u around... can't be too many other red early 911s in the area

thanks all! the red E certainly seems to be quite well known on the site... I saw it advertised, viewed it the next day and bought it on the spot. Barry's restoration thread was superb - by the time i'd read it i was convinced! I suppose i should also post a pic of the 3.2... here she is (although n...

Hello DDK I'm absolutely loving my '72 2.4 E which I was lucky enough to buy from Mr Barry Carter a couple of months ago.... Prior to this i've owned a 3.2 Targa and a '79 SC - both great cars and happily thrashed at trackdays and sprints (the 3.2 could never beat my best time at Goodwood in the 3.0...
