Interesting. Thanks. Though I wonder why they said it was a replica.

I realize this is only peripherally GT40 related, but I've searched the net for weeks, sent numerous emails (some actually answered), and ordered half a dozen books on interlibrary loan, without finding what I thought would be a simple bit of data. (Since there's at least one GT40 being built...

Are you sure? I recall someone in the garage telling me the owner built it from a kit and it was powered by a 302 "straight from a new Mustang".

I photographed this 302-powered replica at Mid-Ohio, summer of '95 or '96. Does anyone know whose car this is/was?

Thanks. I'll use the latter (and try not to waste bandwidth, too many people already think I'm a waste of oxygen).

I have a couple of photos of a replica GT40 taken about fifteen years ago at Mid-Ohio and was wondering if anyone here might know whose car it was. Which forum should I use?

How I wish. In reality it's just the opposite. Drove a GT40 for the first time around '77 or '78 at Road Atlanta, the last time in '96 at Mid-Ohio. (That's me in my avatar, with #1012, summer of '91 or '92.) Haven't been on track in nearly four years.

That's the problem, I don't feel old (except for those occasions when, tying my shoes, my feet seem much more difficult to reach than I remember; and I still don't recognize that old fart in the mirror). In my mind's eye I'm still that scrawny, long haired, 26 year old tossing cars around Road...

Thank you. I don't recall when I last saw Moon eyes, but that feels like home. Appears to be quite a bit of reading to do here, which certainly beats staring at the idiot box. And I still recall the hubris of a seventeen year old, with aspirations of Porsches and Ferraris, looking at his...

and I snuck in. I hope non-owners are welcome; I've driven quite a few GT40s and MKIIs over the years but never owned one. Grew up in the rural south in the sixties, where auto racing meant NASCARE or dragsters; an interest in sport cars and F1 immediately labeled me an oddball. And, being...
