LMES: Barron Connor Racing Ferrari 575 makes track debut!

Just found this article today. http://www.motorsport.com/news/artic...Other%20series Will be very intresting to see how the cars go in next years LMES - always good to make a track debut without any problems. Will this be the car to beat in next years LMES GTS class? Personally I think it could well be providing there is a good test programme leading up to the season, we have already seen in FIA GT the 575's have the pace to win, now hopefully that can continue that in the LMES...

Quite an amazing looking car, even without paint on it! And it sounds like it performed very well straight out of the box. This will be a team to watch.

Man, this car looks so sexy in carbon black, along with the Murc. I cannot wait until Detroit when we finally see the C6, so we can start guessing on the C6-R, besides Michelins and Ron Fellows. That 575GTC is really low to the ground, too. Now, anyone have carbon fibre black pictures of the 360GTC?

If I am right Conner is a company that sells/produces car parts so I think there will be a few "Conner" stickers on the car.

Probably they sold their shares, which is the reason they can spend some money on the red cars from Maranello.

I like the Marlboro red, its not a scarlet like a typical Ferrari but a lighter colour that looks like an old McLaren F1 colour...

I didnt mind it in blue either... depends what 'sponsorship' they have I expect

Bosch Sr sold out of Golden Tulip after the reverse take-over with Krasnapolsky Hotels a few years ago.
This helped to fund the Ferrari collection they started and it als pays for most of the racing. They may want some sponsors, but I guess they could do it without outside money.
