Paolo,

No, not me regrettably. Year before in the one hour GT race we did a world first in being the first replica 917K ever to actually race. Its first race at Spa of all places. If its still in one piece after its racing this season we will be back there in October and hopefully a darn sight quicker. Porsches don,t come cheap and after its new top end rebuild i could have built another GT 40!! Maybe we will run both cars at Spa ( i have willing drivers ) but my finances are severely stretched at present trying to run the two. This racing business gets more expensive by the minute and trying to maintain two race cars up to scratch is taking up so much time and money.

Regards,

Graham.
