No mate, just along the road from you nr Stirling. Good to hear of another mk1CS in the area. I think we (PO driving) chased Barry in your car for a few laps that day - suppose it's no surprise that he's very quick.

You planning on tracking the car much this year? I've yet to visit KH in the 3 (with me driving anyway) but am planning on getting up on an evening when a suitable one arises.

Yes a Sunday. In my experience, the sundays are less fraught as they are 4 hour sessions, compared with 2 hours in the evening and a such there are periods when there are v few cars on track.

Hi Rikki,

Welcome to 911uk! You should email Andy Duncan, the PCGB GT3 Register Secretary, who maintains a list of all GT3s in the UK. If your car is on the register, he'll be able to confirm various details of the car. Andy's details are on the PCGB Forum website.

Cheers,

Adrien

Don't know much about this particular car, but remember seeing it a few times parked outside John Greasley's favourite Indian restaurant in Buckingham!

John will have looked after the car fastidiously - the only time I have ever seen one of his cars dirty was after the first lap of a rallycross heat about 20 years ago, and as he owned G-Force Motorsport at the time, it will have been maintained at no expense spared and by some of the best Porsche technicians around (they also prepared his Le Mans Porsche GT1 car). Probably answers the question about suspension setup as well.

John's history with, and passion for, all things Porsche make many of us lot look like people with a recent passing interest! Almost 30 years ago, he raced a 750bhp twin turbo 4wd 911, built by Dage Sport (later to become G-Force), in rallysport - as he couldn't get a race licence due to being blind in one eye.

Probably doesn't really answer your question, but a bit of trivia about a previous owner for you!

Nuts, just checked and i'm workin that weekend. Wont even have time to stop by for a bit. I'll have to stick to KH this year as LeMans is using up my Euro trip budget. Hopefully do Spa next year.I'll give you a shout when i'm looking at goin up to KH and see what you're up to.

Fancy joining in for our hoon round the highlands in August?
