I sell to the likes of Alzen, Ruf, 9ff, Stadler,Meunster, Schonemann, Tuthill and many many more in Europe. Couldn't tell you what a single one of them looks like.

Though I suspect some of that will change when I set up a new warehouse with a soon to be announced partner. And I can tell you that partner does not sport a long grey beard nor does he delivery present by sleigh on Christmas.

That is indeed who. I was being polite just in case he's not allowed to speak of who he sells to.

Sure thing

I think Porsche got the market cornered pretty good in Europe. It's a goof idea to use stronger and cost effective parts when your race organization permits

Are you guys using loctite on the flywheel bolts? I have heard that it is the reason that the bolts break in the crankshaft. Whats is your experience?

Great thread...... I have a 996 Cup and plan to eventually move up to a newer model. The insights shared are incredibly valuable.

Thanks. Getting a good sequential tranny from the start is just as important as everything else

While getting the warehouse stocked and the retail program up to speed has been delayed by them putting their racing first, my relationship is with Rotek Racing and Robb Holland located on site at The Ring. In addition to my line of Porsche parts, we have been quietly developing several different lines of VW/Audi LSDs and gearsets. More to come in 2014 (or maybe before Christmas if you watch a certain endurance race run in California)

Awesome! I will be at 25H Thunderhill this weekend. Can never get enough of racing fumes
