Hallo all,
following this site now since some weeks.
i´m very impressed with the high qualitystandards you´re all setting to yourself. The resulting cars are even more impressive.
I´m 44 years old, maried to Helga and have two wonderful kids ( michael 16 and ramona 11). living close to munich in one of the most beautifull areas of germany.
From an age of 18 i was fascinated by motorcycles ( had no car at all till i turned 21). At this point i decided for cars ( need to calm down my parents due to a family issue)
I´ve been in cars for a while ( autocross ), built some local championship winning autocross cars. But the bikes never left my thoughts. So i started again in 91. Building a nice KZ900 which wone several shows and perfomed very good on the street. After spending on year in TX(95) i went into vintage race bikes. Bought my first EGLI ( swiss race frame builder) in 96. and since them i´m hooked to them. Bought and rebuild another two in 99 and 02. Rebuilt both of them completely. One of it is a EGLI KAWA. 1200c aircooled z 900 engine (with al the goodies of ARIAS, YOSHIMURA, KEIHIN) putting out 140 hp and 125 nm of torque. The other one is suzuki twin engined 500cc vintage racebike, which i race regularely in classic race events (
Grab the Flag). Did pretty good this year, finished second over all in the classic 500 class.
In parallel to the bikes i own a porsche 964 C2 ´90. which ´has original 55kmiles on it and was rebuilt by me in 2004.
Now i´m up for more, will sell the porsche and the EGLI KAWA ( i hate my toys standing around, and since i´m racing the small EGLI i haven´t put almost no km on the big one). I´haven´t yet decided what to buy , but it will be a kit with a nasty SBF( 450 - 500 hp), Looking either for a FFR Coupe or for a RCR GT 40.
So don´t be surprised if i´m coming up with a lot of questions in the close future. looking forward to receive all your supporting answers.
Thanks in advance
TOM
, so I can appreciate the beautiful area of Germany where you live.
