Well, it's just been a few weeks since I started this thread, and here I am saying "WOW" all over again.

I came home to find another shot of GTR #01R wearing its original livery hanging out in my email inbox. The strange thing is that this one was totally unsolicited and it comes from someone I don't even know. His English wasn't all that great, but that doesn't bother me - this photo is simply spectacular and is clickable for a 2185x1499 resolution version.



I spent a little time cleaning up the image in Photoshop, removing some of the film and scanning artifacts and it came out very nice I think. If anyone wants this at at smaller size than the hi-res provided, let me know.

Incidentally, I have no clue where this shot was taken, but it does appear to be John Neilsen behind the wheel, much like the photo from Driving Ambition of the GTRs first shake-down runs.

Anyway - a big thanks to our mystery source! If you are here, make yourself known. We've dealt with limited English in the past and it's been fine so don't be shy. I'm sure you can communicate in my language a lot better than I can in whatever yours might be.
