Re: 09R and Hitotsuyama solved...
Had look at "Driving Ambitions" last night, found entry about 07R being sold to AMG. So this chassis has had a rough life! From perfectly good race car... butchered up as a test mule for AMG... before finally being rebuilt as a road legal GTR.. Thank God!!!

It's just a little sarcasm to brighten up your day.

Re: 09R and Hitotsuyama solved...
is it possible that if 009R was a replica that it was used for some of the mclaren press shots (the ones of it all clean in a parking lot. Peloton is STILL patching together one of them) and that 001R is still unwashed and untouched and in a bubble or something?

Sort of possible... but #01R (or at least I assume it was) went to Goodwood one year - maybe 1999 or even more recent - and it was clean and beautiful. I guess it could have been the Sultan's then too - back for a service or something, but I sincerely doubt it.

1999 was the year - It didn't actually participate though it was only on display with some other LeMans winners. Here's a photo from the day - one of the few I have ever seen.

We're discussing this photo on SC.net and I figured that several people here might be interested in seeing it. It is yet another shot of GTR #07R in the hands of AMG during their development of the CLK GTR.
 I figured digging up this thread and keeping it with the previous info was more valuable than starting a new one and having to explain things all over again. >8^) ER |
