:D aaah this RSR gtv6, I love it.
I 've seen it several times in very tight fights on the tracks here.


the old days....
I recall one in the rain on Spa, I drove to the race pretty spontaneously, only one hour before and it was poring, asked myself during the drive over, why the hell I was going over there :shock: .
15 min before the race I was at spa and it was just a few minutes dry.
While the car where lining for the rolling start up it was raining again.
Ron's gtv6 between two 75 imsa's side by side through eau Rouge, a feast to see!

I actually found some bit of this race on youtube:

:mrgreen: I hope Ron brings it alive again an does some racing with it again!

I did mention in page before a Ferrari got airborne on the uphill test slope . I found the link to it . I was actually standing next to this camera girl . Now this may not seem high as we watch a lot of rallying but for a low set up road car combined with the fact he backed off on a flick type jump this is is painfull.

This 159 supercharged was probably the strongest car up the ramp .

Rons driving is quite unbelievable when you watch the clip in the above post . Some corners in the wet you can see him wait for grip on the front while it washes away in those bad conditions . Looks like I will see him end of month at ring if I can get my German visa with my dumb ass serf African passport . It's always a nightmare trying to get a visa from a third world passport , due to corruption that's given it a bad name .
