Tonto should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
The best of 2008?

With an appx K pre-65 GT where are the best historic meetings to enter for 2008 and why? Anyone care to suggest? Can probably only fit 6 events into the diary so which ones should we target?

U2GT

that'll be either a 2.1 B, 2.2 triumph, or possibly just an 1980cc lotus twink !

If its in the new U2GT then there's the Festival at Silverstone to add to the list, plus the possibility of the races at Anderstoorp. So, as Zef says (ignoring the drone of 2.1 b's etc.):

You've got Brands, Silverstone, Spa and Anderstoorp. That's 4, then the Dijon event which I believe is run by a French outfit, to make five.

The French outfit is Flavian and Vanessa Marcais who are the alternative to Ron and Christophers grand ideas.Probable races in UK next year.
