did anyone else see the Porsche advert on page 9 for an official "classic you drive" day at the Porsche experience centre Silverstone. from memory they have various handling circuits including a wet / ice bit with kickplate
as they say in the ad "will enable you to explore the handling of your pre 74 Porsche in a safe non competitive but exciting environment" ... sounds a complete no brainer to me
I bought a copy this week and am enjoying it very much - especially nice when you know (through DDK) the owners at least to some extent
I've almost bought a twin outlet "rally" exhaust from Bert, I've seen the work Mike Holloway was doing on Ian's other car - the 2.2S and I'm sure I've had quite a few exchanges with Simon
I didn't realise Ian owned the Historika ST - WoW !!!
That car - combined with the 2.2S - makes him a very luck man indeed! Not sure if Ian's been on here for a while - but it would be good to know how the 2.2S is coming on - its probably finished by now.
Anyway - great magazine Keith - many thanks !

I think that project has come to a stop for quite a while now. Shell was all painted and looking fabulous last time I saw it a few years ago. Don't think it has moved on much since **
Ian.
** assuming I have got the right Ian and it's an orange car.

Good to see the first advert has arrived. This is something that a few of us have been talking to Geoff Turral at Porsche Cars GB about for a while. It is part of an initiative to build closer relationships between early Porsche UK owners and Porsche Cars GB/Porsche Classic. The event will provide a driving day for all pre-74 Porsches without going for a full on track day. Hopefully Porsche Classic will be involved as well on the day. It is open to any owner of a pre 74 Porsche. It would be good to see it well supported and for it to become a regular thing and for other events to follow.
i've been nagging Geoff Turrell to do this for ages..i am gutted that i've no longer got a classic to use. would have dearly loved to have taken the Policecar along to this.
