    Anyone know this paint scheme / race car ?

    I run a red car just like this in historic racing in Australia and liked the paint job.

    Can anyone provide me with some details of the Nurburgring stripes, if they were period? and or where I can find more pics ??

    Cant speak to the paint scheme, but at Monterey it was the only car in its race group that was sliding (read: drifting) through turn 4 every single lap! Never seen anything like it. Driven by a very large German fellow. As the photo suggests, they spent a LOT of time dialing in rear toe.

    That sounds like Patrick Simon's driving style

    Thankfully he's published the onboard vids!
