Factory visit 2012

In the Aileron?

I was one of the last to get around the oval, and I noticed that, after one hour "racing", the oil temp was almost off the dial. At 140 C or 285 F, it was the highest I've ever seen.

To be racing, you would have to lower the seat considerably.

Depends on how tall you are. Tom would raise his seat

I have driven the RDW oval before in a SWB Spyder (not as fast as Hans). I only now realized that in a coupe, you cannot see anything.

On the banks, with the car an an angle, the road "curves up", and the windshield header is severely in the way. You cannot see any other cars ahead, just a little asphalt right in front of the car. To be racing, you would have to lower the seat considerably.

I think it is more like 5 right now. Including the two one off cars were at the paint shop. We only saw the one cabin that was just painted.

I saw at lease 2 Ailerons in production and more Aileron body panels. I would love to see some extra pictures of this visit....! Please post if you have some. I fogot to take pictures of #001 and of the other Spyker.

... of course there were no secrets disclosed, Reddingius! You are fully up to date, trust me ...

Hi amzamz.
Do you have the picture's from me and de guy's in the Aileron.

[amzamz]

... of course there were no secrets disclosed, Reddingius! You are fully up to date, trust me ...

(remarks: ... in the left picture, for some reason, Rijk is missing. He was there I assure you! ... in the right picture, I wonder if I can tell the difference between this tuned BMW engine and a standard Audi engine.)

That looks like heaps of fun. Has anything interesting been said with regards to the state of the company and the heading for the future?
