Hi all - I've been asked to install a Bosch Race ABS / TC system to a Porsche 997 GT3 track car but am getting very strange costings and lead-times from UK dealerships regarding parts. I know that Bosch are able to supply the parts direct to end user but am unable to contact a friendly...

Ok - firstly this is not GT40 related, However I'm currently helping a friend with a newly acquired 'tow car' which I picture below. The car is a 1959 Ford Country Sedan although I'm nicknaming her 'HMS HOOD' as dimensionally I think its similar in overall length! (and possibly weight!)...

Hi all, totally non-car related but my wifa and I have been tracing her relatives recently and have discovered that some migrated from Latvia to the USA back in 1950s (possibly from Germany) and have discovered a link to a lady we believe to be related to her grandfather. The lady is living in...

Hi all - Not exactly GT40 related but might be applicable and I am positive that some of you more knowledgeable persons on here will have the answers... Ok - as a sideline to my normal work, I also modify motorcycle instruments, fitting them with Gear Position Indicators and different...

Anyone using one? or have experience with them? Any good? I'm looking to install a multi-camera system shortly to a Porsche GT3 which has a Bosch ECU can-linked to a Motec SDL3 dash. If anyone has anything good or otherwise to say about the system I'd be interested to know before...

Have just come back from a few days in Essex working on a rather nice new-build. A Mazda RX7 Turbo that had electrical issues and required sorting. So, after 2 and half days, all the gremlins are resolved (all mainly wiring mistakes) and we fired the car up for the first time. It has MOTEC...

If the picture is for real, then the owner sure has some major concerns!!:stunned:

Watching the events unfold in Libya, one thing has stood out to me more than anything else. The amount of ammunition being fired and normally in any direction in gay abandon. I wonder how many 'friendlies' have been injured by the cavalier way in which they seem to blast away all the time...

I am having a clear out at the moment and have a Kyosho 1/10 RC GT40 kit for sale. Powered by a pull start Nitro IC engine these are a blast to have some carpark fun with. It is from the Nostalgic Series of kits and is complete, unassembled in it's original box with all instructions decals...

Well - I am guessing yes - but they sure are difficult to speak to. I've been working on an Electromotive Tec GT install and have had a few issues. I've tried the US support number - 703 331 0100 and the technical enquiry option (2) cuts you off. Selecting 'Operator' (0) puts you...
