#1 Hello from Paris - new owner of 7266WK

Post by docford » Sat Nov 03, 2018 11:24 am

Hello there,

my name is Chris and I live in Paris. I bought 7266WK a couple of years ago in England. Since then we run it a various track days as well on the road, before racing it a the Spa 3 Hours.

As I'm new to all Jaguar mechanical stuff, I'll certainly post questions here, as I'll be readying the XKE for Tour Auto and Spa 6 Hours 2019.

Cheers,

Chris

Hi Chris, and welcome to the forum! You'll always get answers to your questions here. Perhaps we can even get a group together to watch you at Spa!

Hi Chris & :welcomewave:

Be interested in seeing how you get on @ Spa, good to see early 3.8 cars out on the track.

Yours looks to been heavily modified, it would be good to find out what has been done / updated.

Details on XKE Data are here: http://www.xkedata.com/cars/detail/?car=888491

Best of luck next year racing

we‘ll be testing at Spa in March. Best laptime so far was a 3.11. My goal is to get lower than a 3.05.
