Hi,
The Team is owned by Erich Edlinger who was a Driver in the DTM. I know that Georg Plasa BMW 134 and Retro Misele Merc 190 both use V8 Judds. The Judd engined Cars are circa 550 plus The Erich Edlinger car [320 BMW] runs a IRL 3.5 V8 Engine [Indy Racing League] which is a N/A V8 that rev to around 10.5k. Indy Cars in the States use Methonal which is terrible stuff if it ignites. The Double wishbone Suspension on the Car is a work of art. Look at his Web site its really interesting and goes into the deatails of the Car. http://www.team-edlinger.com/Racecar/Racecar1.php Regards, The Gorilla. |

Hi,
Sad News that Georg Plasa, JUDD 134 Owner and Driver was killed in a High Speed Hill Climb event in Italy this weekend. The Impact according to early reports was so hard that some of the Roll Cage tubing actually snapped. http://www.rietilife.it/?p=10676 http://www.omnicorse.it/magazine/104...-al-terminillo He always puts a smile on my face. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uC1v6fr7x8Y Condolences to all his family. Regards, The Gorilla. |
Thanks for the up-date Gorilla. That is very sad news. He built two of my favourite race cars. He and the 134 will be horribly missed. R.I.P.:(

Sad to hear of the loss ... died doing what he loved though

Hi,
It seems in these pics that the Roll Cage has at least bent, and there are reports that some Tubes are broke or snapped in the impact. Car impounded by the Police, Magistrate appointed, all very Senna-esque, being Italy the ''which'' hunt has begun. http://www.omnicorse.it/magazine/104...ure-della-bmw- Regards, The Gorilla. |
That is a horrible impact! Main picture is quit shocking.
Very sad. |
Hi,
It seems that 500 BHP E46's is now all the Rage. The S65 would be my engine of choice for the E46 but I expect these are still very rapid. Not sure about the 'cable ties' on the Car from Norway though. http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=857690 http://www.trackculture.com/category...10-conversion/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T10cyk8tHUA Regards, The Gorilla. |
