These battcars (5) and track sliders (11) are compatible with 7/8" or may also fit some 22 cm T-Tracks. Lower quality new Harken battcars and track sliders sell for $1500 new (see Harken website). These North Sails battcars and Antal (Italy) slider cars are far superior. These parts can be used to upgrade an existing hoist system or be used on a new or replacement main sail. I can provide more detailed information and additional photos if desired. The kit includes O rings for a reef tack or cunningham. The allen head wrench is used to remove and install the pin on the slider cars.

Range Rover Sport RS caught on video at Nurburgring
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Range Rover Sport RS caught on video at Nurburgring The new Range Rover Sport is only just starting to fin its way on toi the road after its debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, but Land Rover are already planning a more potent version – the Range Rover Sport RS. The ‘RRSRS’ is Land Rover’s answer to cars like the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S and comes equipped with the same supercharged V8 as the new XJR, XFR-S and XKR-S, offering around 542bhp, which should give the already very able Range Rover Sport proper supercar performance – something in the region of 4.5 seconds 0-60mph seems likely. Despite the Range Rover Sport RS blatting round the Nurburgring with a fair degree of swirly camouflage, you can already see it’s getting a new front bumper with bigger intakes and a redesign to the back bumper too.

Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport hits 268 mph
Sun, 04 Jul 2010Bugatti is claiming a new production-car top-speed record with a combined two-run average of 267.9 mph (431.072 kph) with a new Veyron 16.4 Super Sport model, smashing the 253.76-mph record set by a standard Veyron 16.4 in 2005. It also betters the existing world-record mark of 256.23 mph (412.28 kph) established by Shelby SuperCars with its Ultimate Aero on a 12-mile stretch of road in Nevada in 2007. Confirming details of the attempt run under tight security at parent company Volkswagen's 13-mile Ehra-Lessien test track in late June, Bugatti says the new Super Sport set the record in the hands of its test driver, Pierre-Henri Raphanel, and under the auspices of officials from the Guinness Book of Records.
