For those who know about or even seen one - Mini Marcos

Good article in the Oz BMC experience mag

http://www.bmcexperience.com.au/bmce-issue22/mighty-marcos

and here

https://www.minimarcos.org.uk/sport/lm66bd/index.html


Could imagine this -  "was clocked at 146 mph on the Mulsanne straight"

in this -

Shocked

Great race car transporter

I had a Mini Marcos back in 1977. It was tons of fun.

The 1966 15th place for Claude Ballot-Léna and Jean-Louis Marnat remains Marcos' best result at Le Mans despite many later attempts with much more powerful and exotic GTs.
