Peter Holinger R.I.P.

Hi and sad tales to tell, was just reading ZOOM magazine and the tagged a mention of a Holinger gear set with a R.I.P. for Peter so I did a quick search and found that he passed away last November. This man was a genius engineer and a gun driver at hillclimbs and the sort of person that will be missed by all involved in motor sport. My condolences to his family. Cheers to all Michael

I'm suprised this was kept so quiet. I didn't hear anything about it until recently.

Are you sure? He was a giant, not just in local motorsport, but worldwide. HIs innovative products were used by some of the best racecars in the world.

Hard to believe nothing was said on v8extra or something.

He was a true legend. He will be sorely missed.

It wasn't kept quiet at all, it is just that nobody picked it up on this forum.
