They had a very nice 2 page article about the Ginetta reunion at Buttonwillow race track.

My question: why is it that a USA magazine with a wide circulation can devote 2 pages extolling the virtues of Ginettas while Autocar, EVO, Top Gear, Car (and whoever else) can not devote a column inch to Dare & Ginetta?

What has happenned to national pride?

I guess I can't answer your question but thanks for the heads up on the SCI. I'll have to go pick it up.

I'm not sure about SCI, but if you can find a branch of Borders Books near you they stock a large number of American magazines.

The article was also referencing Ivor signing copies of a new Ginetta book.

What new Ginetta book?

Not seen the mag (will have a decko in Borders) but there is no new Ginetta book, apart from the Brooklands Books one which is NOT a history, but a compilation of mag articles etc.

Useful, but I'm not paying 20 quid as I probably have all of it in mag form anyway.

Says 'limited edition Ultra' whatever that means?

Covers 1958-2007 but it only seems to have following models G2, G4, Formula 3, G10, G11, G12, G15, G21, G25, G26, G27, G31, G32, G33 & S4C/G20.

If it gets remaindered I might grab a copy.
