    Interestingly, the first owner of my 911S was the second owner of this 250 GTO #4399GT.

    The sound of the 250 Ferrari 12 cylinder is simply wonderful. I've always been amazed at how some owners of multi-million dollar cars thrash them, wheel to wheel on track in the UK.
    I'd like to think that I'd do the same if I had the chance, but honestly, I'm not sure.

    I have same thoughts........and Id like to share this:

    I built a track day toy yrs ago.....an e30 built up w/ an engine swap, suspension etc etc etc......

    when Im tracking, my biggest worry is going "off" or breaking something.....so besides my safety, its about my money and funds. Id think if my funds were kinda unlimited Id be into "thrashing" more and Id be faster for sure.....


    sooooooo, that makes me think many of the Goodwood car owners( perhaps not all but many..) just go balls to the wall and have the hired drivers do the same.

    Im simply jealous...lol

    Please keep in mind that some of these cars are... replicas. Nearly perfectly made, but replicas anyway.

    The greatest trick is to own an original and use a replica for the races. This way, your unvaluable car (well, almost) will not be damaged and it is also less costly to insure for racing.
