Re: How do I clean these wheels?

Those look like Gasburners, but not sure if your wheels are originals or repro's.

Aluminium or Magnesium?

I would sand them and repaint/respray the black and I would spray the 'polished' parts silver/aluminium.

Re: Retrorides Weekender 2023 @ Goodwood - Club Display

That sign is always removed and only put back during Revival (when Porsche occupies it).
Last year it also wasn't present during the Flat6 event (nor Members Meeting).

Re: Off topic watch chat for the horologists out there

@Bootsy:

It looks like the central (chronograph) second hand originally was orange. The (possibly faded) orange has been painted white later.
Can that hand be repainted orange again, or is that not advisable?

Re: Off topic watch chat for the horologists out there

I've recently acquired a watch that I don't know much about. I like it very much and I wear it almost daily, but I don't know much about it. It clearly has a Porsche link. Who can tell me more about this watch? https://m.facebook.com/groups/porschefreunde/permalink/6425781077440776/ https://i.posti...

Re: Stainless cup holder

My Alfa Romeo doesn't have a cup holder either, so I got this one as a present from my girlfriend: https://i.etsystatic.com/35089757/r/il/d52be5/4047197955/il_680x540.4047197955_lsb3.jpg Does the same as your cup holder, but has an interesting 'extra' feature: https://i.etsystatic.com/35089757/r/il/...

Re: My Porsche 944 GT S2

@misteralz: I live in Vinkeveen. I just love the handling of the 944 and the power of the S2 is plenty. It drives great. Of course my Speedster is still my favourite, but this car is just so versatile. The car has a full RUF interior, the car is tuned by RUF and also the sideskirts are made by RUF a...

My Porsche 944 GT S2

Due to some circumstances I haven't driven my Speedster much the last 2 years. Making far (and international) trips with the Speedster are challenging. Some years ago I've bought a -in my eyes- future classic: a Porsche 944 S2. Here are some nice pictures of 'my other' and 'real' Porsche: https://sc...

Re: Goodwood Revival paddock pass wanted... Please!!!

Hey Angus,

Thank you for your reaction and offer.

Sorry I didn't react any sooner... Health issues prevented that (luckily not Covid related).

How can I contact you to make some arrangements?

Re: Goodwood Revival paddock pass wanted... Please!!!

No that's not the case: I visit Goodwood Revival since 2009 and I always only needed the little 'cardboard label on a string' to get into the paddock enclosure... @Neil: if you have a 'top end hospitality pass' to share: I volunteer! ;-) So the question remains: does anyone have a paddock pass that ...
