GT40s on Sky TV

I haven't seen a post about this yet.

I was watching the latest episode of World Motor Sport on the English Satellite last night. It showed extensive coverage of the inaugural running of an event called, I think Tour Britannia.

There were 3 GT40s taking part. Ray Belm was the overall winner in his one, Adrian Newey demonstrated some spirited driving in his one. Sorry, I don’t remember the driver of the Red one.

If you get a chance to watch one of the repeats this week, don’t miss it. There is some great footage of these cars being driven hard at Hill Climbs, Cadwell Park and Silverstone.
