The Von Pair-Matched
Advantage: Regardless of brand,
identically configured shocks can generate widely varying damping
forces. All shocks are built with
manufacturing tolerances that make damping forces deviate from the design
target. Despite using good designs
and precision components, the best commercial shock manufactures accept
finished product tolerances that are typically +/-15%. That means that by luck of
the draw two new, "identical", tested-good shocks picked
from the shelf could vary in damping forces by up to 30%.
Cheap shocks can be much worse! Imagine the quirky, uneven
handling caused by left and right shocks that vary by
30%. This can cause an uneasy feeling of not being planted, a hard
to quantify sensation that the car just isn't "right" despite
seemingly having all the best parts and setup. The car doesn't
inspire driver confidence, and it doesn't go fast. Worse yet is the difficulty
of diagnosing these types of problems. Without access to a
computershock dyno, the suspension tuner is left groping in the
dark. Any serious suspension tuner
absolutely must have a computer shock dyno plot for
all shocks. This simply cannot be
over-emphasized. It doesn't matter if
your shocks are brand new, or freshly custom valved, or come from the
most reputable manufacturer, or the best-known shop - you MUST have a
computer shock dyno plots for your actual shocks (not a
sample from a similarly configured shock). Without the dyno plot,
you simply have no idea of what your shocks are doing, what
irregularities they may contain or conceal. Testing - Every
single Von shock is tested on our
computer shock dyno. The dyno plot is delivered along
with the shock. We keep the dyno plot in our database to
support you going forward. This dyno plot is used as a
baseline of comparison should we ever test your shocks to analyze
wear, damage, or help you diagnose handling quirks. The dyno plot
also let's us Pair-Match your shocks. Pair-Matched - Von shocks are
built in batches, and every single shock is tested on our
computershock dyno. Using the batch's dyno plots, we hand select
pairs that have similar performance curves. The shocks are then
delivered as matched pairs. Pair-matching
allows Von shocks to deliver performance consistency that is
unrivaled. You are assured that your shocks are tested-good and
will function as a pair to deliver matching damping
performance.

VW may move production because of Russia's cutoff of natural gas
Sun, Sep 25 2022Volkswagen AG is exploring ways to counter a shortage in natural gas, including shifting production around its network of global facilities, signaling how the energy crisis unleashed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens to upend EuropeÂ’s industrial landscape. Volkswagen, EuropeÂ’s biggest carmaker, said Thursday that reallocating some of its production was one of the options available in the medium term if gas shortages last much beyond this winter. The company has major factories in Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which are among European countries most reliant on Russian gas, as well as facilities in southern Europe that source energy from elsewhere. “As mid-term alternatives, we are focusing on greater localization, relocation of manufacturing capacity, or technical alternatives, similar to what is already common practice in the context of challenges related to semiconductor shortages and other recent supply chain disruptions,” Geng Wu, VolkswagenÂ’s head of purchasing, said in a statement. RussiaÂ’s decision to throttle gas supplies to Europe has raised concerns that Germany might be forced to ration its fuel. Recent news that gas storage levels hit 90% ahead of schedule has soothed fears of acute shortages this winter, but Germany faces a challenge in replenishing depleted reserves next summer without contributions from Russia. Southwestern Europe or coastal zones of northern Europe, both of which have better access to seaborne liquefied natural gas cargoes, could be the beneficiaries of any production shift, a Volkswagen spokesman said by phone. The Volkswagen group already operates car factories in Portugal, Spain and Belgium, countries that host LNG terminals. Labor hurdles To be sure, any major production shift away from EuropeÂ’s biggest economy would face significant hurdles. VW has some 295,000 employees in Germany and worker representatives account for around half the companyÂ’s 20-member supervisory board. Any shift in production would likely involve a limited number of vehicles rather than wholesale factory shutdowns. While gas supplies for VWÂ’s plants are currently secured, the company has identified potential savings at its European sites to cut gas consumption by a “mid-double-digit percentage,” said Michael Heinemann, managing director of VWÂ’s power-plant unit. Still, the carmaker said it was concerned about the effect high gas prices could have on its suppliers.

Son of Porsche 911 designer recalls 1963 Frankfurt debut
Wed, 16 Oct 2013
The Goodwood Revival is described by its presenters as the greatest motorsport racing party of the year. We often focus heavily on the motorsports, but you can't forget about the party. For the first preview of the new 911 Turbo in the UK, Porsche recreated its booth from the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1963 - the time and place of the original 911's public debut.
Porsche's cameras also caught up with Mark Porsche, the great grandson of Dr. Ferdinand Porsche and son of the late Ferdinand Alexander "Butzi" Porsche, who oversaw the design of the 911. Mark Porsche admires the 911's friendly design, which is set off by the round headlights, and says his mother, who was at the original Frankfurt booth in 1963, was milling around the booth at Goodwood - no doubt taking a trip down memory lane.
