    Foodies.

    This is one of the few dishes I like enough to get me in the kitchen. It's off Auntie Delias web site (deliaonline.com) The night before, you need to place the meat in a large bowl along with the bay leaf and thyme, then pour the porter and port all over it. Put a plate on top to keep the...

    Fran Is that a twin nostril? Feel sure you will have my single in hand. Kinsler stack, 550bhp, ally block, ZF-Q, ally mono, best lookin' mid engine car ever, that'll do very nicely. John

    Targeted Best GT40 Kit, Your Opinions Please

    There is no "right" answer to this question. Most of the kits out there are pretty good. Proper research (build logs on this forum are a good source), talk to both owners and those manufacturers you short list. Also have in mind what is important to you. For what its worth I researched the...

    Mark II P1046 vs. Gulf P1015.... which is more representative?

    Joining in the sprit of the thread (:confused:) the Mk1 will always be the representative 40, like most classic designs the purity of the shape was lost to some extent in subsequent marks. Still love them all though. Hanging in there is real tough but only a few weeks now till it arrives (RCR...

    HiSpec Motorsport

    I live in the UK and found the only way to deal with them is by using the phone as a way of chasing an email. Shame because the products are excellent. Good luck John

    What do I buy?

    Bill There is loads of good info on the site about the different manufacturers. I personally went for the RCR but I would suggest that you thoroughly research which one best meets your needs. I have spoken to guys who did'nt do this and they often have issues which should have been resolved...

    Kit car magazine, UK

    Well said all. Most magazines are influenced to some degree by who pays for the adverts. I must say that Kit Car mags in general are just about the worst I've found for bending over backwards in order not to offend the paymaster. I occasionally weaken and scan read one in the Newsagents in...

    Superlite Coupe production

    Fran Pure unadulterated style. There are not many modern designs that have a simple elegance about them, to me they mostly look contrived and over fussy. I think your coupe has beautifull lines combined with a purposeful "don't mess with me" stance that works well from any angle. Well done...
