Welcome to the forum Andy,there are some great guys on here who know so much about Mclaren.
What more could we all wish for than to have an actual owner to comunicate with!
As you can tell from my forum tag,yours is proberbly my favourite liveryed gtr.Unfortunatly i only have a model of the car to look at!
I was seriously annoyed about missing you at the Goodwood gathering,but if you will be at Wilton house ,i will drive down from York.
Fos is usually my only visit so far south!
My Mclaren gtr passion started in 1995 at Donington,when they first raced.Seen others mainly at FOS.
Anyway,about info for your car.
A few years ago i picked up a video of your car in the Japan gt championship.It is in japanese but plays fine on uk video's.It is Autosport vol22,and covers all 6 rounds,but the first 4 are just short clips.Rounds 5 & 6 however are about 20 minutes each,which just happen to be both wins for car 60.There are good racing shots and pitlane changeovers etc.Also a hot timed practice lap showing Ralf driving,Hattori spinning in the pitlane after driver change!!
I think they must have made other videos for the season detailing rounds 1-4.I remeber when i bought it being offered another one which had a proper analasis of the LARK gtr,but the price was too high!
I will try to get the video copyed ,and hopefuly see your great car at Wilton House ,to give you it in person.
Having seen Gulf,Harrods & Fina cars over the years.it would be a dream to see yours.
I will check my files for anything else,photo's etc.
