    GT40s at Goodwood Revival 2013

    It was very exciting to see my old friend racing P/1027 at Goodwood, a shame that they had a little incident but only bodywork (reproduction!) and pride was hurt. My chum said the conditions were incredibly slippery in qualifying, which the Brack video proves!... The drivers at the front of the...

    £250,000 is quite a saving off a new car. Surprised its not sold, been on the market a while. ..

    They do seem expensive, But if somebody wanted a GT40 for the purposes of racing I cant really think of a more cost effective way to do it. If you buy an original car you will then be terrified of destroying original bodywork and thus be terrified to use the thing properly, or alternatively...

    Spa 6 Hours 2013

    Was anyone at the Spa 6 Hours last weekend? There was a bumper GT40 entry and what a site watching them all blasting up Eau Rouge in the dark! Most of them finished this year, looks like the drivers are learning to take care of their brakes and gearboxes a little more!

    GT40s at Goodwood Revival 2013

    I've been to every single Goodwood Revival since it's inception. I wasn't going to go this year, but changed my mind when the all GT40 race was announced. It was quite a sight probably never to be repeated! I actually spent most of the weekend in the GT40 paddock looking at as many cars as...

    Road Car or Race Car?

    Good morning gents, I thought I better introduce myself. I don't own a GT40 (at present) but have certainly caught the bug, not helped at all by Goodwood. I have owned a 2005 Ford GT for a couple of years and have always wanted to add a proper GT40 to my small collection, my...
