Thumbs up Our very own Chris Walrod mentioned in Road & Track
The very talented and terrific Rennlister Chris Walrod, is called out in the July 2015 Road & Track in the article about the Singer Porsche cars. Congrats to a really great guy. Chris volunteered to machine a set of front brake hats for my aged, used Ruf brakes. Of course he also makes those front A-arm bushings that many of us are so happy with.
Kudus to you Chris!

Chris,
Can you arrange a special Rennlist Group Purchase of those 4.0L Singers? Count me in, buddy!
Oh wait... did I see $380,000? Just get us a nice, deep discount!

Yes, but if they really wanted to show his Porsche credibility, they would have mentioned that he was a Rennlist member with over 15,000 posts!
