AA Silencers was out in force at this years PPC show. We ran several cars there and drove the Practical Performance Car magazines Porsche on their behalf as the other magazine staff members were rather busy organising the event. Several staff members and customers drove on track in array of cars and the AA Silencers Capri was busy all day long giving passenger rides. The trade stand was busy with enquiries ranging from geomtry set up information to aerodynamic devices and engine conversions.
I have long been a reader of Practical Performance Car magazine http://ppcmag.co.uk/ and it was my pleasure to be invited to drive along side one of the editors Kev Leaper as he tested the often dangerous waters of motorsport. Motorsport isn’t dangerous becuase of the accident’s but because it is seriously addictive and may harm your bank account. There’s so much more to going racing than driving a car and the preparation and comittment in cost and time often dampens peoples enthusiasm very quickly.
Kev’s Porsche had seen some track day action but needed a lot to get it up to race spec. Racing is the ultimate test of any machinery and the Porsche showed it’s frailties. Fortunately both it and it’s owner showed their potential too, and Kev has bags of enthusiasm for motorsport.
There’s a long road ahead but it’s a joy to be part of it. Buy your copy of PPC Magazine and follow the tales.
Ever Since the demise of MG in 2005 it has become increasingly hard to get hold of MG parts at reasonable prices. Some of the models such as the ZS180 are fantastic cheap sporty cars which look great and are fantastic fun… until they go worng. Often the cost of parts can make small problems into potentialy fatal situations that can threaten to put great cars on the great scrap heap in the sky.
AA Silencers owner Mark Hammersley is an ex MG works driver and has a passion for these underestimated cars so AA Silencers has teamed up with Mg Zed Bits http://stores.ebay.co.uk/MG-Zed-Bits?_rdc=1 to provide cheap parts to the MG community.
AA Silencers already runs several MG’s and Rover race cars and has a wealth of performance knowledge. We are looking forward to developing improved parts for such items as week clutch systems, door handle repairs and overcoming other well known frailties. Also in development are performance mods for the KV6.
