Nice pic. ... but not of the ONLY Lambo in the event
Lots of 911s though, including GT3s. Still unlikely to have spent that amount !!
Not taking it away from them or the car, there WAS a "challenge" and a "competition" section. So it wasn't a "tour" that it won in ( whcih is what I was asking ). To understand the difference ... here's an in car from a guy in the "challenge" -- DOH !!
Found out Alister McRae won the classic competition in a 911.
Well done
Putting it in context, only 4 mins slower over nearly 2 hours of stages in a 25+ year old car !!!

that guy is dead now
on a rally? that's damn good - my understanding of a tarmac rally is that hardly anyone pushes it as far as they would on a track which maybe why he was only four minutes behind? not sure, i'd feel safer with AWD but where's the fun in thatFound out Alister McRae won the classic competition in a 911.

I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

A GT3 costs over $250,000 new. Hell Jim Richards races a GT2 in these rallies.
