            Dear Ultimatecarpage.com visitor, 

             After creating the highly acclaimed Ferrari P4/5 by Pininfarina 
back in 2006, Jim Glickenhaus revealed to us he now aims to take the theme one 
step further; to the Nürburgring for the 24 Hours race next year. At this time 
the project only exists on the drawing board and whether it will receive the 
green light depends on the quest for additional sponsors to help fund the 
racing effort. However, a project of this profile should have little trouble to 
find an enthusiastic backer. We can forward all serious suggestions to Jim.
            With carbon fibre tubs not allowed, some creativity is needed to 
create the P4/5 Competizione. To make the car fully compliant with the strict 
regulations, it will be built around an existing chassis. The best news perhaps 
is, that it will be powered by the engine originally found in the 333 SP. The 
4-litre V12 has powered the 333 SP to numerous victories and produces the most 
glorious howl. The rolling chassis will be clothed in a body that will share 
its styling with the P4/5 road car.
            Although the design has not been finalised yet, we have gone ahead 
and posted a P4/5 Competizione feature with renderings done by Dutch 
artist/designer Michiel van den Brink. This page will certainly be updated as 
the project progresses.
