Top marks Greg and Graham - it is indeed the Coffee Tractor!!! I think it was my favourite Porsche of the festival.
Greg - sorry to hear of your problems. Tognola are very near you if your man can't help. I also had a 'mare on the way back - the old stuttering / jerking problem returned with vengeance (I thought the throttle cam repair had fixed it).Took her into Northway yesterday - they swapped the MAF with a stock car and she runs fine now. So I guess it's a new MAF for me (though Autofarm put one in 2 years ago) - should be fitted on Saturday. With my rally to Monte-Carlo next weekend I was starting to consider hiring a car. Fingers crossed please!

They don't (although you can get them fitted) but I think lots of people call the stock air flow meter MAF. I had a similar hesitation problem and mine was also the air flow sensor - neatly solved when you spent ££££££££'s on yours, didn't need your air flow sensor and gave it to me.
Sure I still owe you a beer for that.

Colin, I have a poor quality (visually) clip of your car over the finish/start line on the other side of the pits......it actually sounds a bit like a frikking NASCAR....
I'll send it to you.....the noise is quite clear as you pass.....

Yeah....well you don't know Colin as well as I do He looked visibly relieved when I started crying because his car only had the one seat in it (and I hadn't thought any further than a passenger ride). Ha ha.....but yeah, would be happy to do a drive-by....

Found this ... http://www.962c.com/ if you want to see video of that crazy road legal 550hp/830kg 962 from the weekend.
Sadly can't find any sites about Richard Chamberlain's 935 - anyone know of any? be interesting to see the development of the car etc...
