Yes - at the time I spoke to Gordon it was mid-2005 and we didn't have any of the hard evidence that the Black LMs really existed. There were several credible sources that had confirmed them in so many words, and of course the original tip came from the Chassis History poster included with "Driving Ambition". I was hoping Gordon would finally put that whole debate to rest, but instead he kind of muddied the water by quoting the factory line that they were all orange.
I think it was a couple of months after that the Maurizio Corbi drawing surfaced of LM1. Wish I had that to share with Gordon that day in kind of an "...oh really?" fashion.
