It appears some things are still as they should be; in the Dutch Supercar series, Cor has racked up several wins with the Marcos lm600, against several Moslers, an Audi TT and a Viper.

Go Cor!

Good to see the Marcos name still in motorsport.

The Badger · 12 Jul 2008, 07:53 (Ref:2249573)

Love to see that car in the LMS ..... is it still using a chevy V8 ?

b1ackcr0w · 12 Jul 2008, 09:27 (Ref:2249600)

Just the mention of that car puts a smile on my face. Looks mad, sounds like a dinosaur being raped, goes like stink, wins races, occasionally disappoints. It's everything that you love about cars when you're 8 years old, it's perfect because of it's imperfections and everything I got into motorsport for. A modern motorsport classic in my book.

He is racing with the Marcorelly instead of the LM600.

Speed-King · 12 Jul 2008, 12:59 (Ref:2249655)

Isn't the Marcorelly a slightly modified LM600? I saw it two weeks ago at Hockenheim, but I don't have a close-up foto of it.
Euser occasionaly races a Mantis in the DSC Supersport2 division:

That one however is Ford-powered.

He is using the Chevy powered LM600 in the Dutch races.

This is the LM600 wasn't it?

**FIRE** · 12 Jul 2008, 18:28 (Ref:2249774)

The Marcorelly is an evolution of the Marcos Mantis. It has a stiffer chassis, flat bottom and the exhausts are moved from back to both sides. The engine is a 5L V8 from Ford (?).

Who built the original BGT LM600's from 94/95?

Chris Hodgets and David Leslie drove them occasionally.

There opposition at the time was the Pantera and G-Force 935/GT2's, plus the occasional Harrier.

Marcorelly is the name for a Marcos entered by Cor Euser in 2008. The name is
MARco - a crew member
COR - Cor Euserr
ELLY - his wife

Marcos... The originals were factory entered cars.

Chris Hodgetts was British GT champion in his, but I think David Leslie only raced at Le Mans (might be wrong, though, I have a vague feeling he ran in some non-works outings in the BGT).

Biggest competition was the Chamberlain entered Lotus Esprit V8s, really.

Cheers.

Leslie used to drive it quite often in the late '90s, against Kurtis Hales and co in the Vipers.

The Mantis is an ugly, fat car- the Mantara/LM600...now that's pure sex.

And yes, a dinosaur being raped

JAG · 14 Jul 2008, 21:52 (Ref:2250906)

The original LM600 still looks the best IMO.

This is the later, wider still, LM600:-

Aslak Vind · 13 Jul 2008, 09:01 (Ref:2250023)

Great looking piece of maschinery that LM600, looks like a sexy woman with all those curves. And then there is the sound

**FIRE** · 13 Jul 2008, 12:46 (Ref:2250112)

That's indeed the rainbow warrior. Great car! It's a shame we don't see it in FIA GT or LMS.

minimangler · 14 Jul 2008, 21:56 (Ref:2250912)

Agreed.

mattcat · 15 Jul 2008, 00:05 (Ref:2250946)

So after just raving about this car in another thread, I read this one. She is a beautiful beast.

**Aysedasi** · 15 Jul 2008, 12:10 (Ref:2251228)

That Computacenter colour-scheme added even more sex appeal to the 'dinosaur'........

geeteeone · 29 Jul 2008, 13:52 (Ref:2259629)

Cor's current LM600 is effectively running in GT2 spec, notice the much lower rear wing, smaller tyres and narrower track than the GT1 spec car. Compare to the 2006 Belcar GT1 spec car that was run by Eurotech:

http://www.vikingengineering.nl/site...e%201%20Belcar

I believe the changes due to the car being entered in Spanish/Open GTs over the last couple of years, where the cars in the GTA class now have to confirm to GT2 technical specifications.

Great to see an LM600 still competitive, it's one of the true stalwarts of GT racing.

WHAT a glorius BEAST

Lovee the round female curves, and that growl from that GT1 V8!

Something about 'glorious beast' and 'round female curves' is causing a disconnect in my brain! Aslak, you have some interesting tastes in the ladies...

Seriously, though, the LM600 Evos were some seriously badass cars. I remember the lead car having a great run (against the Vettes?) many a year ago in Daytona, 2001 or 2002, until somewhere around midnight at least, with Cor Euser and Calum Lockie on the strength (during the rainbow paint era). Was really pulling for those guys.

That's right - it was actually running ahead of the factory Corvettes for many hours in 2001 until the bracket holding the power steering pump came apart, and it wasn't the most easily accessible component so the fix took a long while. With better fortune, a Marcos LM600 could have won the race outright!
