There's a treat in store for Viper enthusiasts as our french chum Florent is bringing his stunning C27 GTS-R to the FOS this year. The car famously did Le Mans, Daytona, Sebring and Silverstone all back in 2000 under the Oreca banner. Since Florent aquired the car, it has be restored to a fantastic standard. Despite its amazing condition, as with his 6 other GTS-R's, it is no garage queen. Recently Florent won the GT90 revival in Dijon with this car. Here's a pic of the car:



Totally unrelated to the above, couldn't make Goodwood yesterday as were competing in the Double 12 at Brooklands. Here's a little vid the Viper's 'cousin' bellowing, snaking & smokin' its way up Test Hill to the delight of the crowds.

"black lines on Google earth" laugh

My bad smokin' habbits caused many a smile, which is what it was all about. They have the original Cobra roadster bucks (complete with woodworm) at Brooklands, was interesting to see these. Anyway, looking forwards to FOS soon.
