Geert-Jan,
I believe that is Hans Hugenholtz in 2nd place in the blue GT40. Do you know where he finished? He drove together with David Hart.
I think I already found the answer in the next topic, 6th overall?!?

Guys
Claude told me that the way the other cars were being driven all out when some of the cars were Glenscoe replicas P1006, Tennents chassis GT40P/1127, meant that he avoided them at all costs. GT40P/1027 was damaged in the race. He did not race GT40P/1078 as it was asked to be put back in pre 1966 format i.e,. no Gurney Welslake heads,etc.
The Mirage was not M10002 because that car had been sold for $11000000 early that year built in a Gulf GT40 MKI version. Ronnie Spain said that the Mirage M1 was a Glenscoe and they freely admitted to it.
I would like to have found out wheither the Alan Mann XGT MKII silver with a matt black bonnet No 7 was a Glenscoe as well. This was because it had a number plate on it.
Robert Sarraith and his son? Fabien the driver of the real GT40/P1006 FAV entrant at the 1965 Le Mans were really friendly. Giving away posters and getting them autographed especially by Henri Pescorolo. Unfortunately they spoke little English and I spoke no French.
I got photographed with John Entheridge and Jan Storr (sister of Brue Maclaren). I am glad she did receive the copy of Raymond Baxters 1966 Le Mans notes I sent her. I did get to have a good chat with Mike Tenzie I hope I have spelt his name right. I spoke to A.J. from the Indianapolis Speedway museum who told me the MKII GT40P/1032 was being restored to the 1966 Holman and Moody No4 MKII. And saw Roy Snook sorry I was not ignoring you I was miles away in conversation. Also it is a weird condition of using a mobility chair that you do not have proper eye contact when talking and I had my conversations mainly standing up I also met John Laycock. So it was a good day apart from taking a long time to get to the gents and then having to queue being held up by crowds and a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud. This meant I only got to see the GT40 demonstration cars filing off the circuit. Did anyone get to see this and was the Le Mans GT40P/1046 MKII winner in it?
I suppose in future years with the costs of the originals more and more Continuation cars will be the ones that race?
I hope to get some pictures in for Fortification.

Hi John,
Yes, you found your correct answer.
The were running very strong in the beginning of the race!
Do you know who the car belongs to? The program said Racing Team Holland.

It's Gelscoe :Gallery | Gelscoe Motorsport
I attended dressed for the performance - my outfit looked vintage but was not original - much like the cars : producers prerogative - it saves him having to decide on acceptable levels of originality !
Real or not real thank you everyone for posting the pics and vids. Outstanding turn out and I thought Amelia Island was great getting 10-11 last year. I'm really impressed but then again it is Goodwood. Not sure how many more times any of us will get to see this many GT 40's in one place.
As for the video of Kenny Brack qualifying....I just had to tip my hat to the guy. Impressive skill, impressive reactions and I sat on the edge of my chair thinking he was going to lose it at any moment. Nice job....he's obviously very sure of his ability's.
