    Mercedes V8 Inlet Manifolds

    Finally I can send my prototype engine off to the fabricator next week since I'd been waiting for them to finish a custom exhaust on of all things a rare Lamborgini 4x4! Pix to follow when I plug all the openings and give it a wash before loading it on the trailer. It's pedal to the metal now...

    Die Rote Sau - the red pig

    A section from my latest article in the MBCV ATB Magazine: Research can often snowball into something far beyond the initial intent, so it’s always wise to retain a focal point to which you can return. And so it is with the history of motor racing, Mercedes and AMG. My research for the last...

    Fangio and the 6.9

    Yes the author is Pedr Davis & the book is called “Rear Vision”. I’ve just bought a second hand copy so I’ll upload pix of the whole article tomorrow. In addition, I managed to track down the retired police member who actually got to ride with Fangio! Sounds like he might just have some more...
