    Re: P4/5 Racecar

    I read that they'll have some interesting challenges adapting the body to a new chassis, as carbon tubs aren't allowed in the Nring 24. Also sounds like gone is the big Enzo lump and in goes the race-proven 333SP's V12.

    Re: P4/5 Racecar

    Napolis, I was fortunate enough to drive beside your beautiful P4/5 on the way to Carmel for the 2008 Concours. I could not believe my eyes when I saw the P4/5 sitting next to me in traffic. I thought, "Now I have seen the most incredible car in the world, why bother going to the Concours?" Of course I still appreciated all of the other beautiful cars I saw that day but none of them, including the first McLaren F1 I had ever seen, came close to delivering the same amount of excitement. This race car is beyond words, here's to winning Le Mans overall!

    We're figuring all of that out now.

    THIS IMAGE IS SIMPLY TO GIVE AN IDEA AS TO HOW CAR COULD LOOK WITH SPONSOR LOGO'S.  NO SPONSORS ARE SIGNED YET.side(provecolore)rosso-sponsor.jpg

    Jim, do I understand it right, its a complete new, second P4/5. This is not your car which we see on the first picture, testing on the track, isnt it?

    Re: P4/5 Racecar

    Yes, such a great effort! Wishing you the best and looking forward to see the car at the 24h race. Are you competing personally?

    The car has very interesting proportions, as I suppose that it will compete in the experimental category (such as the Gumpert/Frentzen car) do you have to meet any regulations reg. dimensions? I assume not, since the street version is a one-off model.

    Hi

    No I won't be driving but will dress like John Weyer, stand in the rain and have a good time.

    Yes we have to meet regulations which effect the dimentions.

    Just don´t dress like Flavio Briatore...

    That will make a visit to the 24h race next year mandatory. Wishing you the very best! Smiley
