Perhaps not the best location to put this, but didn't want to create a whole new one.

Over at SupercarFrance.com, a set of photos from Silverstone 96 were shared. Once you're logged in, go to page 889 of F48K's picture thread, here.

They are actually Antsphoto's pictures from Flickr. Revio has been borrowing his content recently - likely without permission.

See here...

Great place to put the link though, I think.

Re: GTR Racing Livery - Index

Hello all,

This thread is sensational and I loved going through its pages!
I have been fortunate to attend Le Mans every year there was McLaren, whether it was during the preliminary tests, qualifyings or race. It is a pleasure to see the pictures which are still much alive in my memories.

I have a strange question regarding the Harrods livery (06R?). Does anyone know why the engine bonnet was painted grey while the car livery should have featured green stripes in that very area?!

Another question regarding the 1996 GTR and the HDK. I do not like the conversion of the road car into HDK for the simple reason that the doors do not have the side skirts that are present on the race car. I do not remember even seeing a GTR racing without skirts on the doors. However I see that 18R is displayed in that same HDK configuration. Can anyone comment?

Thanks!

More like that from PH'er Silver Smudger.

These came from the Brands Hatch race in 1996 where it finished 3rd.

Re: GTR Racing Livery - Index

Facebook's BPR GT group has a new image at least to me, again.
(Recomend to enjoy that group, serval new GTR images added guite often!!!!)

But now there is a new one, this is #12R from 1996, but which race?!
No yellow spots Lease Plan decal.
I have couple of shots saved where it's similar, but don't know the races where it were like this.

Is this perhaps from Paul Ricard, seems like it but....?!
Doc, Erik, Greg....? Have you any suggestions?!!?!?
