Just bought an ex-works Lancia Stratos, hope to see you there next year.

The MK I is elegible as well. Although the Stratos might be more fun.
Best

Re: 0846 and 002C are heading to the Historic Targa Florio

Yes, I did think about the Mk 1, or my GT350R, but the Stratos is in it's element on this type of event. It is a new aquisition so I am not sure where we will race it yet, but the Targa Floria is the type of race I would prefer to do. Please let me know your impressions, and any suggestions you may have for me when you finish. I wish you luck, Cheers Gary

Hi
This was a real MK I Street car. Very nice owner, in red shirt. It ran great. He shot some in car following me. Running together was a bit like the old days.

It is a shame you are a such nice guy, it would be so much easier to dislike you if you weren't! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] That picture of the P4 at night is SOOOOO COOOL! Sorta like the Miami Vice Daytona scene on the causeway at night with the Phil Collins soundtrack playing "Something in the air..." Hope you are having a good time and I hope to see a bunch othe GT40s.com guys at the Glen next week.
