Re: QR Comparison : Scud vs 997 GT2 vs LP560 vs GT
As a French I may be more familiar than some of you regarding Prost's thinking/tastes, particularly because of the French press and a blog run until recently by one of his relative, so hereafter a couple of points:
@intouch1: I know you were kidding re. Prost as a former Ferrari employee, nevertheless he has not considered himself as such for a long time now, in fact he has had some very hard comments towards the Scuderia Ferrari (F1 team) since then, not least in the frame of the spying scandal last year (read: the cheaters are not the one you may believe to be
).
@SciFrog: I would rather think the opposite, i.e. he may have relatively cold relations with Renault and the major French compagnies in general since they refuse to support him back in 1997 as he set up his own F1 team.
He expressed his anger to them quite frequently in interviews when relating to this period of his life.
@nberry: you may want to know that Prost currently or at least until very recently races in a series called in France "Trophe Andros", which consists of four-wheel-drive cars competing on ice (I do not know any more if they are mid- or front-engined, maybe both but it is late here and I do not have the time to check) and takes place every winter.
One last point, actually I am quite surprised Prost takes part to such sport cars comparo because I remember very well of an interview of him when he was still an F1 driver and stating he hates sport cars, just not his thing.

However, I do thank you for your remarks. They are very instructive.
