Re: Found some great shots of #05R
Those are good photos. 
The banking in the second picture has me thinking Monza 1995 - it was the second race of the season so and #05R finished 8th there and should have been sporting that exact livery.
The first pic doesn't look much like the Monza we saw this past weekend at all, but the banking in the second shot isn't even a part of the track anymore, so the place has obviously seen some significant changes in the past two decades. The last picture of the pit lane could also be Monza before the hot pit wall went up, but again it is hard for me to be certain. If you think they all came from the same race based on how you found them then that is my best guess.
Congrats on the new addition to the fam!!

Re: Found some great shots of #05R
Try Montlhery, near Paris........May 14th 95.

#05R was the only GTR that entered this BPR round of the championship, Marc Sourd had contact with a slower car, resulting in a DNF.
Greg,
Congratulations to you and your wife and thomas. On your new arrival to your family.

I remember seeing the side panniers of #013 - there were quite spacious...big enough for our smallest

Re: Found some great shots of #05R
O5R would have been a great sight on the banks of this unusual circuit.If you have the 1995 gt endurance book you can see the high banking in a few photo's.
Pictures of this car seem to be rare.Im still waiting for someone to make a good model of it
Well done on number 2 arrival ,i have been watching you countdown.We lost one last month,so will keep trying for number 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will ask to Phil75 and Miura1 from www.supercarfrance.com, They had pics of BPR so why not at Montlhery. In fact, they made "unique" shots like #048, #059, the mystery german silver, all on the french Riviera in the 90s

It says WEST, but partially blanked out / obscured due to Tobacco sponsorship not being allowed in some Countries - remember the Mclaren GTR's with Davidoff / Day Off down their flanks? Same thing
