Nothing like a loaded question, eh?
How about "significantly better prepared than the cars the drivers drove last year." Calm down, calm down - only a bit of fun... (Note, I'm not happy with my truck) Last edited by JR Ewing; 2 Jun 2003 at 08:55. |

Getting better by the week and should really fly with a proper race engine.

Improved and really impressive at Silverstone, despite still having the " taxi" engine. Showed it can run with the Moslers and TVRs, and with things becoming more equal, could be on the top srep of the podium 'ere the years out.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't that the old Trinkler Corvette that ran a few races in the ALMS? I'm pretty sure it is, and i'm seriously impressed that it's as quick as it is. I would have never pegged it to be pressuring the Moslers (it may not be yet, but it will), but i'm very happy to see it. If any 'vette is doing well i'm happy!

The F40 for Brit GTs is not exactly a bog standard car - it apparently has the powerplant from a 550 Maranello fitted!
