Hi Jim
This is P1074 at Le Mans in 1968 in its final preparation for the Race. It was one of three Gulf Team cars and it shows off its Mirage chassis as can be scene by the squared-off section in front of the windscreen.
After leading the race it came into the pits with clutch trouble. The clutch was replaced after 80 minutes dropping the car into 33rd place, then just after midnight the engine blew up.

Thank you Chris, and I agree BC is the leader so far.
Incidentally, in the Food for Thought dept, last weekend's Rolex 24hr at Daytona, a Ferrari 360 built by Michelotto was entered and run by the local team, Ferrari of Washington, DC, finishing 25th overall and 14th in class. This was a one-car team, whose aim was to finish the race running, according to them. I can't help but think wistfully that a GT40 would still be competitive in that race and similar ones. Maybe I just don't know much about racing in 2002...
