Default Happy Holidays you guys (and 2 girls)

Some of the gang is on holiday but as you can see James and I have some werk to be doing during the festive season


In case you're wondering... that is the THIRD GT2RS that we've seen have clutch/pressure plate issues. Incidentally the flywheel is all new on those cars. It's a lightened version of the 964 one that we've used for years but it has a thinner band/friction surface. That's one problem. The other is the pressure plate isn't what I'd call up to par for a 300K car... For those of you with issues just use the motorsport one

Hey, I like the new guy! Can he carry a video camera while swimming around the shop! Merry Chrismas to everyone! I'm due for a visit to see what's going on down there! I assume it is moving along as planned?

You need more space. Time to open an east coast location.
