I just read this through in one go, and was absolutely gutted when the first car got crashed! Glad to see you didnt give up and re-shelled it, what an amazing car, and a pretty cool story as well.
I've got to ask though, do you have a money tree in your garden? lol

Beautiful work! I have a dream... you will be driving to Holland next year... driving the E23 732 with the E21 on the trailer, your girlfriend is driving the 635, and all cars will be on display at next years' Sharknose Meeting in Holland! 8)

2 Jeroen: maybe :-)

first photos from the trackday in Sosnova - I am very satisfied with the car - third gear was laying rubber on the track till the redline even in the straight line (that track is quite small, so I didn´t use 4th and 5th gear)

there are some details, that I need to solve, but overall I am very pleased
