SITE UPDATED 03 - 28 - 2021
WE ESPECIALLY LIKE SPORTSCARS FROM THE SIXTIES AND CENTRE THIS SITE AROUND THOSE WELL DESIGN AND DEVELOPED CARS.
ALTHOUGH WE COVER RACING CARS THROUGHOUT HISTORY OUR ROAD TESTS AND RACE REPORTS STARTED FROM A BASE OF OUR RESEARCH ABOUT THE 1966 LE MANS WIN BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY ABOUT WHICH WE DID AN iBOOK.
The film about Le Mans '66 is a good and enjoyable movie but obviously leaves out a lot of the story. Our book leaves very little out - the research took 2 years.

F1 this weekend Bahrain - all the talking stops and we see just how good or bad people are. Hamilton was bored during tests - I assume he will begin with a season win. Mercedes are the best - Single seaters Pre WW2 silver arrows again F1 success in mid fifties and recently. Sportscars SSK, 300 SLR, C9 annd CLR.
Bahrain: Verstappen fastest P1, Verstappen fastest P2 & Verstappen fastest P3- do we have a race? quali - Verstappen winner Hamilton
A good race but same result
