Gamma meeting - Stuttgart

[thecolonel]

Had a really pleasant week-end in Stuttgart for the International Gamma Meeting
one couple flew from Japan, others from Switzerland, Norway, Holland, UK and Germany
of course. Visits to the Mercedes and Porsche Museum, plus the usual good food and company.

rather quick return trip: Stuttgart to Dunkirk 5.5 hours in a Gamma

you have to love de-restricted Autobahns

Geoff, excellent journey time, Via Michelin calculates 6 hours 25 minutes, so you did well in your super fast Gamma!

Have to admit I was quite pleased with the progress,
new adjustable/lowered suspension and straight through
exhaust all seem to work quite well, just need more power
now.

There must be room to fit a VX blower (or 2) on a Gamma with the necessary plumbing and engine mods?

Hi Geoff,
what happened regarding the electric turbo?

Hi Brian,

used them for a while but only seemed effective at relatively high speeds.
I've since thought about an Eaton M45 supercharger, but not enough under
bonnet space, then a small turbocharger, rather difficult to manufacture
the exhaust without a mandrel bender. I'm now heading in the direction
of twin IDF carburettors, if I can find a pair at a reasonable price.
