    Is she fully spec'd out or still a lot of design/engineering development needed?

    Congrats on this new journey becoming reality!

    A lot of work still to do. The first step will be stripping her down and getting chassis hard points.

    We have tons of P 4/5 data that will help but this car will have different dimensions to fit the 430 Wheelbase and FIA requirements.

    Thanks 2 All!

    The team that will provide racing services has a lot of experience at the Ring and will be helping us to find drivers.

    From what I understand the best Ring Drivers are locals who really know the Ring.

    While this will be a serious effort it's in the spirit of Privateers who stood in the rain and had a good time.

    I'm looking forward to using the Stop Watch I recently bought at auction that was used in the Movie Le Mans.

    One thing I'm very serious about, you only Live once, and I really hope a lot of Ferrari Chatters will join us at the Ring next year to watch us race.

    No easy task. All that in about a year. Very impressive! Aside from photos, are you working on a video documentary throughout the whole process? From street to track & back.

    Cheers

    Is the only reason you are basing this off of a Scuderia rather than a Challenge is the ability to register it on the street after the race?

    So will the P4/5C be smaller than the P4/5? Directly scaled reductions in size?

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Very nice,

    Looks like the car is probably going to be about 25-30% of the outlay.


    There is much work to be done as well as many checks to be written.

    Best of luck, can't wait to watch the story unfold

    I just wanted to make sure that this didn't come across as condescending.

    Not at all what I meant.
