Most recent Party at my mates place - Bad Hawaiian shirt themed.
I may or may not be intoxicated at this point. All I know is we made a Canadian girl cry because we called her American.
Finally got a disc of photos from a friend that covered the Sebring SVRA event. The drive into town.... love this car! :D

nice shot, the yellow indicator on the steering wheel is to tell you when the wheels are straight????
Yes, it's a piece of tape. Pretty common on modern rally wheels, PO installed it.
Car is under comprehensive resto to 1977 Daytona winning spec.

the owner of the site you linked to...if I am not mistaken he is czech or some other country in that area.
Ahhh! Surely he knows, there are several color pictures of the car on the site. The VIN is known too, don't know why it's not posted there.

well, it seems to me a hell of job to maintain that site, so it is no surprise that not everything is there yet
RSC is a great site I've used over the years for Matra and Alpine race history, especially the less well known events like the BOAC. So much info as you say Pieter, no surprise some bits missing :)

Along with [url="http://www.ultimateracinghistory.com/"]Ultimate Racing History[/url] they're about the only sources available online for more obscure references. Even if one could afford a copy of [I]Time and Two Seats[/I] these provide nearly instant access, and deserve what small financial support you can offer. ;)

Second is me and sis on the way to Royal Garden Party to meet the Queen and Prince Phillip at Holyrood, Edinburgh. No cameras allowed inside, so this is as good as it gets :)
