some really free thinking which was great.
No argument there.
But, talking Lemans, I'd like to go back a bit further?....Always been a V8 man, so I LOVE "American Muscle", and that is why my favourite Lemans car is the Ford GT40 (The Ford That Beat Ferrari...twice!) Henry Ford wanted to buy Ferrari.....but he couldn't....so he spent "Sqillions" in building a car that beat them.
V8s are on this afternoon...I'll be watching....Go Jamie.
