[Rick Moseley (ramosel]

Why not...  312 T4 had a screaming motor that took Scheckter to his only championship.

Picture this – its August 1979 on a Monday in Maranello at the Ferrari factory.  It is the first day of the month long (?) National holiday and the factory is quiet and empty except for Tibor, myself and our host.  How so? Story told before or ask.

 

At 1:10 we are crunching along across the open courtyard towards the final assembly building when a loud siren like sound goes off for at least 10 seconds.  A long damn time - really.  I ask our host if that’s the end of the lunch period?

 

“No” he says – “they are testing an engine.  If it stays together, we’ll ship it.”

 

Street engine?  F1?  I didn’t ask.  Forty years ago – gads.

 

Cheers

Doug
