Thank heaven for choice. And that we all have different Ferrari models to drool over.

HA! I remember a similar caption from an 80's issue of Road & Track, last page inside the back cover. Picture of a BB512 having skidded across a snowy road, slid down a ditch and broadsided a tree. Guy wearing white pants and fancy shoes stands on the road, calmly lighting a cigarette. Caption:

Meh, I don't mind the spoiler so much - at least it doesn't look like a ricer tack-on.

Doubt you'd get anywhere near mons (or LeMans, for that matter) with such a car.

I'm not sure it was originally submitted any higher than 1600 x 900. It looks juuuuuust OK when stretched to my native screen res of 1920 x 1080...

Thanks for sharing that garage pic. Got any more similarly nice ones of F1's or Team Gulf? :-)

Which is why its cousin the Porsche 911 (and its various derivatives in-house and outside) lives on.

No prequels and no recycling? A Hollywood pipe dream. Even the brilliant Battlestar Galactica re-do, with all its new elements, couldn't avoid a few nods to lineage.

AtomicZHP: I agree with your overall point about shorter distances. I hadn't thought of it in your specific way. Instead, I had simply imagined in auto racing terms that better handling could result in "straighter curved lines." Thanks for clarifying.

Motorsports are clearly different enough from unmotorized sports that they should not be included in what people know as Olympics. However, I do vaguely support the idea of Motorsport Olympics. Can you imagine a motorports decathlon?

Yeah, except one could argue that "where you're pointed" and "where you're heading" are two different and sometimes independent ideas...

Yuppers, all car companies have a history of disguising their prototypes to confuse the spy photographers. I don't believe for a minute that this really looks like the final product's nose.

Why the hell wouldn't you field submissions from other countries? Is it so inconceivable that Americans might wish to go Q-ship hunting abroad?
