Ferrari Mailing List: Tour Auto on Speed

[LarryT (l02turner]

Howdy -
   A classic rally was on Speed today - I managed to tape it but was 
walking out the door and didn't have time to stop and email anyone else - it 
repeats on 12/29 at 430pm - lasts 1 hr - it may be on again in Jan - didin't 
check the schedule out very far - but it's worth a look IMHO.

   They race from Paris to Cannes - looks like the Tour de France actually 
but they keep calling it 15th Annual Tour Auto Lissac.  Lots and lots of old 
sports cars of every persuasion - from 911s and 356s to XKEs and 275GTBs and 
Daytona's and even some with questionable "Sports Car" provenance - like a 
Renault 2CV with 45hp and a top end of 120kph - probably downhill.  ;-)

   Sadly there was a 250 Lusso which wiped it's nose on some scenery losing 
its headlights and grill - along with some other classics that were 
unfortunately damaged -

   Anyway, lots of eye candy for car nuts -   I'll try to provide a little 
more advance notice next time -

I'd love to compete in something like this here in the states but the ones 
I've found have entry fees of several thousand $$'s.  Pretty steep in my 
book (the only book that matters to me)  ;-)

Anyway - Merry Christmas!
