And certainly not a single Superformance GT40! No siree - nor any Gelscoe versions, nope. Thirty ge-uine GT40s or my name ain't Verity Muppeteer.
I always find it highly amusing that the race commentary has to gloss over the fact that (some of) the cars were built last week  But business is business..... |
Nope Trevor,
every car on that grid was extant in 1966. Absolutely, positively. I guarantee that every molecule of iron and aluminium was around in 1966. Of course they may have been around a beer can or some bauxite in the ground, but they existed! They just hadn't been arranged as a "GT40" yet..............
