A friend who is crazy about cars, but has little in common with classics had a tip. He had run a few sessions with his car on the wealth bank at 'Beek Auto Racing' in The Hague. When it comes to car racing and The Hague, you naturally think of Circuit Zandvoort. But we saw that completely wrong.
Also for classics
The circuit link was also not something that our knowledge had. He just wanted more power in his Porsche Cayenne. A sensible wish, because you will never have enough power now that there are entire parts of the Netherlands where you can sometimes even drive 130 km / h. His car got the extra muscle he had requested. And the power cuts will be neatly printed out and framed in his garage annex man cave. But his surprise concerned the classics he found in the clinically clean building. "And there are also engine blocks".
Just a visit
During a visit to The Hague, we went to the company on the Weser 6. There we saw that the modern car tuner has its laptop as the most important tool and that a modern roller test bench is electronically considerably more advanced than Apollo 13 ever was. And with that they came to the moon.
Not just chip tuning
Inquiries revealed that the dynamometer was used 'over the generations', but was mainly plagued by younger, high-powered rubber. To our reassurance, it turned out that the engines, transmission and suspension of the classics present still require a lot of traditional work. And in the attic we found an old link with AutoMotorKlassiek. So we just stopped by, we got coffee and we agreed to do something nice with a classic. Not because we want the fastest Editorial BX, but out of love for the technology.
