There&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>Kev&#8217;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&#8217;s frailties. Fortunately both it and it&#8217;s owner showed their potential too, and Kev has bags of enthusiasm for motorsport.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a long road ahead but it&#8217;s a joy to be part of it.
