Re: If you could bring back any 3 race cars...
Rob,

Great choices.

I was fortunate enough to talk a gentleman in giving me a ride in a Ferrari 250TR, I think it was a '57, at the Portland Historics about ten years ago. I remember the whine from the transmission as being sweet! I have already had a ride in a Cobra, and still waiting for a ride in a GT40

Damn boys...good calls.....!!!!
The tough part is boiling it down to three. A factor of ten might make it easier.

So far, I think the best three may be Paolos. Mi paice Paolo... molto bene.
