I remember his dad hunting for parts in the early years at Husborne Crawley pulling a trolley loaded with parts.
Only went to the old place once but that is a very different story..

Re: porsche vid. of the day
Sounds like there's a story there, but maybe for the pub or paddock...

Needs to work on his start? Could it be such a long duration CAM the revs dropped and wouldn't start?Hugo 356 wrote:Not sure this is how it went down in period, but Sam Tordoff in a 356 carving through the Gentlemen racers, Goodwood Revival 2018:

Re: porsche vid. of the day
One for the Targa Florio fans, and forgive me if it's been posted before but I've only just seen this! Film extracts from the 1973 Targa and Porsche finest victory, after the Ferrari's broke down of course.... 
I've never seen moving footage of the 107 prototype car before, fantastic!
