Decided it's about time this magnificent beast got her own dedicated thread. I'll eventually transfer and add pics, alot of them I might add, so please bare with me. If the mods do not mind I would like to add this link which shows its 'birth' if I may and it's building process but first it's official 'first' running test.
Mr.Jim G. is truelly a nice person and shares his passion with as many as possible.

Thanks as I should have added that aswell. I spoke with Jim via pm early this morning so I will be trying to coordinate my Newfounland trip to coincide with his schedule for a dinner and ride session, only 9 months to go .

So far Gaz the car will only race at the events leading up too and then the 24 Hours Nürburgring, which is Jims main goal, and then will be unleashed upon the streets hence the New York license plate just like P 4/5. It's a 430 chassis so it's already a street legal car.

PS,
Where you been mate I don't see you post or online that much anymore, too much work I guess right?

I was going to comment on the NY license plate! Street legal or not, what are our chances of stopping next to that at a red light!?!?

They are fairly good actually since Jim exercise's his stallions on a regular basis. One thing about Jim is he is not a 'garage queen' keeper and that is what makes him who he is. I'm still waiting for correspondance concerning my request as a volunteer at this years Targa Newfoundland but I informed Jim about it and he requested we have dinner and drives, now that is what a true car guy is all about . Heck he even sent me his personal contact number's , a great and generous person indeed he is .

The driver lineup is Mika Salo, Nicola Larini, Fabrizio Giovanardi, and Luca Cappellari. If all goes well and a finish is likely I believe Jim is going to take the wheel too cross the finish line. Don't forget to watch the race .
