kaefer cup
 

I have 10 pictures of the cars from the kaefer cup,taken when the where in Belgium on the race track...Will i post them here??

Hi!

If it is the same bus we are talking about, then it is R.I.P! The first built T4 with rear Porsche engine crashed and rolled over... I don't know whether it is repaired or a new one was build.
A friend of mine told me that there is another bus being build: A T4 crewcab with VW Phaeton V10TDI with the engine in the middle (Sorry I don't know the exact english word, but the engine is placed between the front and the rear axle). I don't know if it is Claer, but someone in this area. What I have heard is, that they having the problem finding a gearbox that is strong enough for the torque of nearly 1000Nm... I wished I had such problems and the money of course :D
Today, I will visit the post office, maybe have something to watch at the end of the week... :)

Norbert

dirk, you can send them to me and i can post them for you and maybe drop some in the galleries for long term looking. send them to webmaster@germanlook.com.

I friend of mine has this on DVD, its pretty cool.. He actually went to Hockenhiem to see them...

Does your friend went to Hockenheim with a dark blue T3? We talked to two guys from England. There is a 2nd video which was filmed out of the red camper with videocamera, but it was even bigger than mine!

Norbert

Yes, that might have been them, Chris and Charlie...

Bit OT, but on www.luftboxers.com are - at the bottom on the link page - a few video's with one of the former Kaefer Cup cars (amongst them Kurt Hassmann's car) doing a 240 km/h pass at a Austrian circuit.
Very cool.

Walter

But without the 'S'.. :)

Thanks Chris!

kaefer cup
 

@ZEN ; I don't find the pictures off the kaefer cup cars on the site??

greetings

Dirk

just put them up there. unfortunately it is not a trivial task to format pics to the right size and get them posted...much less finding any spare time. :D

look in the general gallery. thanks for sending them in!!!!

These may be of interest if your into circuit racing.

From the Big Boys Toys Beetle Cup in the UK, cars were only 1641cc not the fastest but excellent racing.

Think i'm in there some where.

What's going on with this Kafer-cup video????? Let's get this darn thing out to the GL die-hards!

:( ???? Anyone?

I'm interested too, the only problem is that those will be in PAL format and we need NTSC for North America.

Just get them to me and i'll take care of the conversion! Dammit!! I need these ! :help:

Derek, is that you? :cool:

Sitll Interested !!!!

The suspense is killing me :)
Alex

Yup, it's me Derek :)

Hello Frank,

I saw it before :D ; you guys have a very cool site (although the music is very ennoying :p ) and very inspiring race-cup!
Thanks for sharing!

Does one of the participants still drive an 'old' Overfly engine from Holzapfel? I would love to see one up close someday.

Herzlichen Grüss,
Walter

Holzapfel engine...
 

Hi Walter,

Thomas Wöhr has a 2.9l Holzapfel engine in his white 1303 Superbeetle.

See his white bug Nr. 493 on www.boxerpokal.de at 'Bilder Saison 2005 /Bergrennen Schleiz/'

I can't get the 'bilder to work on boxerpokal I don't know German but, I think it is under construction.

Only has one race on it filmed at Lydden Circuit (best bit on the whole video)

Worth a look

Would still like to see it :)
