Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Ferrari F40 vs. Porsche 959....

[LS (lashdeep]

Thank God for some real F and car content!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am reading Steve Matchett's "A Mechanic's Tale" and he mentioned how he 
thought of the F40 as the ultimate roadgoing achievement.

I look at the 599 and then back at the F40 and I want to wake myself up from 
this sweaty nightmare!

Battle at Fiorano!

I might have posted this awhile ago but somebody reminded me of the 959
today and this had to be brought back:

You gotta give it up to Porsche for having the balls to go into the visiting
team's stadium outgunned and giving it a shot...

I know Lamborghini is considered the more natural rival, but back in the
late '80s nothing epitomized the supercar battle to me as much as these two
going at it.

*"At Fiorano, the 959 is at least 10 secs behind the F40," Gerhard Berger
said - and even 959 owner Walter Brun would admit to six.*
