Went to Silverstone today & yesterday. On Friday listened to Derek Bell & John Fitzpatrick and today at the auction. Surprisingly the number of 996s being sold. The bargain has to be the first 996 uk press car with great story/history and condition Carrera 2 manual, hammer price, £15k

Hit a Pheasant a few weeks ago, I had to get the nose cone repaired and repainted so I decided to fit four projector lights for the high beem and fitted grills to the lower part of the opening.

[/URL][/img][attachment=IMG_1554.JPG] Hi,

Probably a jerky clutch and an erratic tick over,hee hee, na when I boot it from a standing start the clutch can slip now so it will eradicate this and the revs with pick up quicker and it will drastically reduce its moment of enertia for when I take it on the track, but you have to remember if the revs build up quicker they also drop quicker, it makes the car completely different to drive, some people if not use to this do not get on with a lightened flywheel.

 

[paulossie]

The dark plate can be replaced when worn so you don't have to replace the whole flywhell these Americans really do make some good quality kit.
