Default Knockhill

My old boss is taking some of his cars down to Knockhill this Sat / Sun(13th & 14th) for the Motorfair.

Amongst some of them he will have his new Enzo FXX which should be quite a machine.

Going to try and make it on Sat

That Mr Kinch then i guess?? i think his son is Nathan? is it him that drives the 360 race car? I first read that as your current boss and wondered why he was at Halliburton
so what is his business and where did you work before?

have you ever seen inside his garage?!?!? FUCK ME its amazing! my mate was there working on his Range rover. mate works at land rover and they sent 2 mechanics to his house to do the work! mate took pics on his camera phone and you wouldnt believe all the cars he has. i only saw a few but every imaginable super car! F40, F50, Xj220 blah blah. He used to have a macca F1 but ive got a feeling he sold that one. im gonna see if mate still has those pics because it has to be seen.

Chops,

Yes its Kinch. He owned PES who i work for but sold the company to Halliburton a few years back.

Yes thats Nathan who dose the racing in the 360. He will be the one driving the 2 F1 cars and Larry will be driving the FXX.

His Mclaren F1 was an ex Le Mans race car (bright orange) he bought it and turned it road legal. Was quite a machine sold that due to the fact it was totaly unreliable. Needed a full time mechanic to be with the car everytime it was out

His garage is something else your right he used to have a few XJ220's for some reason but i think he sold them off and just kept the 1

Has a Ferrari for every day of the week and some.

He used to own that 500 that Nick has now so he's been into the Fords as well. Traded that for a 22B.


Euan

The cars will be there for the 2 days M8

aaaaaah i see! bummer about the macca being unreliable! i remember seeing it on one of the car progs on tv. i forget which but they went out on the road with him in it

apparently he had loads of old jags so that maybe why the 220's were stacking up

amazing collection really and every bit as good as that link the other day to the american guys garage

wonder why he bothered selling the 500? not like he needed the money i guess

Dunno why he sold the 500. Eliot (his other son) worked offshore with me and said that he just fancied a 22B and decided to get rid of one for the other

Ok,

Just found out why the 500 was moved on.




One of his sons fancied a 22B so not really being into Ford's it was sold off.

if he has a db9 vanquish reg number v12 xdp he was dicussing the double yellow line rules with a parking nazi this morning outside starbucks on huntly street.

rs500 for a 22b? I think the 500 would be a better investment but for actually driving it i think the 22b might be more fun. I was told he had an evo rs200? now we are talking.

I got an invite two weeks ago to take the 'other' car but you have to be there for 0930 and cannot leave until 1730 in turn for a chance to get track time. Mr Dreelan (PSL) and a guy that owns Dominion Speciality Gases were on the invite. I think the second guy may have a silver Gallardo. Mr Dreelan may have a xj220 but not so sure.

Tommy Dreelan is one of the co-owners of QServ. The 3 bro's are there at Motorvation at Alford every year, with Tommy's collection.

I worked alongside them last year during the Apache project.

Where abouts is this Mr Kinch stay? I can check out his pad on Google Earth! Just one of these things about setting up the correct company and one of the majors buying it over..............that Rigblast dude did exactly that too.

Mr Kinch stays out Milltimber way, just follow the route of the new Bypass and it goes through some of his land
He has set up various companys since so he's doing alright for himself.

Nige,

It was his business partner Klaus that had the 200
