Wolf Direct Racing NL Jaguar/TVR Open Day - Sept 6th
Discussion
Mods - feel free to remove if found against posting rules. 
Jaguar engine specialists Wolf Direct Racing - who built my Chimaera engine - are branching out to cater for RV8- and AJP8-engined TVRs (for starters) and I'll be representing them for this side of the channel (both Jaguar and TVR), along with being a dealer for ACT, Tarox brakes and assorted other TVR-related stuff like plenum insulator plates (Matt350s; formerly Magna Parva); stainless steel dashboard kits et cetera. There's more than a few developments on their way and I'll be more than happy to fill you in!
On September 6th starting 11.00h we'll have an Open Day annex garden party in Heijningen, about a 15 mins drive south of Rotterdam. As it stands now WDR will bring a very late Series III XJ6 boasting a few refinements on the handling and braking front, and a WDR-engined V12 E-type of which the power output very empathically starts with a '4'... Both these and my own car, the 4.3 Chimaera WDR development hack, wil be available for taking interested parties out in the countryside of West-Brabant. Also there will be detailing demos and workshops throughout the day.
To kick start the Dutch operation we'll be offering a 10% discount on WDR and ACT parts/upgrades ordered on the day.
Drinks, snacks and sandwich lunch, erm, catered for, brilliant weather ordered but I can't give any guarantee on the latter part!
Would love to see as many British sportscar/GT owners and enthusiasts as possible! Directions given by PM.

Sounds nice... Can you give me more details?
Not really, so far the above is the lot - except maybe that the garden (11,000 square meters) is really rather beautiful, there's ample parking space on the premises and you'll have the chance to buy one (or more 
)of Amazon's excellent TVR shirts, available with Chimaera, Cerbera and Tuscan motif (so far). Edited by 900T-R on Wednesday 5th August 20:41

To be more precise http://maps.google.nl/maps?hl=nl&rlz=1G1GGLQ_N... - driveway sloping downwards on the right side, almost parallel to the road.
Just returned from WDR's opening do in Beccles, Suffolk (they've relocated and now have a showroom among other things): http://www.kelsey-forums.co.uk/cgi-bin/jwm/YaBB.pl...
Brought a small selection of Nicky's TVR shirts home to go on sale on the day and very nice they are.
The range is vast - short & long sleeve T-shirts and sweaters, L and XL sizes, Chimaera, Cerbera and Tuscan prints and five or six colours - so if you don't see what you want on the day she'll very probably have the right combo in stock to be sent out!
If everything goes to plan, we'll have some nice new - as in: hot of the press - WDR bits 'n' kits for RV8 TVRs on display, too.

Aww, that would be a shame for you to miss out on the fun. I'd be happy to pick you (and any others that find themselves without their own means of transport for whatever reason) up from the train station in Roosendaal and get you back on the train by the end of the day (we do that all of the time here as most of my parents' friends & family are getting on a bit).
(oh, and what about a stainless ACT manifold for your S? 10% discount on the day...

Well, the tents are up and the weather forecast for Sunday is actually quite decent: http://www.weersvoorspelling.nl/site/weer_nederlan...
