Lightbulb 105 racers

Inspired by a picture in another thread of a wild 105 racer (that I'd link to if I knew how ) and thought it'd be good to get a bunch of them together in one place .

So how about putting up some nice shots of your toys?

To kick things off, here's my old man's 2000GTV Group Nc Historic Touring Car (used to be my car - the numberplate's a bit of a giveaway on that one I suppose).

Watching those two cars at Speed on Tweed is a LOT of fun! Great cars and great drivers.

Here's my pride and joy. Restored it for vintage racing back in 1999 and have enjoyed every minute of it. If all goes according to plan, I'll have it back on the track this fall.

Unhappy This use to be mine.....

it lives in Chicago now. I've not seen the new owner post on the AlfaBB yet, but he is a member. I started kicking my own butt about 2 weeks after it left for the East.

nice cars - does the front spoiler do much (not that it would be legal for us in GroupN anyhow)?

don`t pay attention to the fuel leaking... This problem has been solved.. The picture was taken in the first lap of the shake-down oktober last year, at Zandvoort circuit, Netherlands.

After putting the spoiler on, I noticed that my entry speed into high speed corners (sweepers) was increased slightly, it helped to hold the front down a little. The draw back is a decrease in front ground clearance if you drop a wheel off the edge of the track.

This is great, we've got a variety of classic racing 105s from several continents now - fantastic. Some really nice looking cars too - and one hairy monster of indeterminate breed :P

My #17 GT

Here's my race car. it's a '65 Sprint GT. Originally built by Rex Chalmers at Omega Motorsport for John Ireland, then for a time was a rent a racer, then owned by Dirk Stoehr, then mine since 2000. I have only used it sporadically the past few years but it's a ton of fun when it's running right.
