The Alfa 8C race program was mentioned as a GT2 project, however the last I heard it had been canned.

A Piper GTR - built better this time
Quote

 It ran again at the Classic last year, although the reliability factor played a hand. Car looked gorgeous and the girl in the period Piper Racing overalls and not much else that was fettling it wasn't too bad either! I'm sure someone has a picture somewhere.
Funnily enough...

Nice pic, shame they never realy had the budget to develop the car and race properly

Was the Piper the precurser to the kit roadcar or latter to the car?

I can remember seeing a roadcar car regulary about '73/74 around Richmond Surrey.  I was almost 'orgasmic'.

There was one under a sheet in the Richmond / Teddington area in the late 70's on a drive near my aunts house. Could it be the same car? I used to pester Uncle to take me down to see it every time I visited. It seemed other worldly to a small lad from Barnsley!
 There was also a lovely converted WW2 motor torpedo boat moored on the Thames that I would go and look at too. Ah- the memories!

Mercedes CLK and open cockpit Panoz - both LMP1 in 1999.

Sadly, both now unlikley but the sound shook my ribs as they pulled away from Arnage.

Awsome !

Was it just me or were the cars generally quieter this year (Panoz apart)?
 2 years ago you could not hear yourself think on the campsite. Or have the voices in my head just got louder?
