Track day in a '73 RS

Attachment 573942My first time on track in the RS and it was superb. Many laps completed and consistently hitting 7,200 rpm, thrashing the tits off it all day.
It didn't miss a beat, drove it 70 miles there and back. Quite remarkable that a 50 year old car can be that much fun and still reliable.

Nice! I’m only brave enough to take a clone out on the track. No problems keeping up with the modern cars in the twisty bits.

Excellent Coyft !!!

Much respect.

Cheers,
John

Did get to peddle mine up the hillclimb years back - but good to hear you have exercised the RS appropriately :):)

Just for your information, there will be about 35 Carrera 2,7 RS (not copies or replica’s) on the Bugatti race track of Lemans on May 28th …… all the day ! We will celebrate there the 50th anniversary of the Carrera RS.
