    I need your help please. Do anyone know, who drove the 275 GTB/C in Silverstone 1965 #15 ? Did anybody have a picture of it ?
    Thanks

    As far as my research for my two part 6885 Cavallino article in the 1990's took me I have no recollection of it racing in period at Silverstone.

    Could it have been the Mike Sparken car or one of the other two 275GTBC/LM's?

    best regards,

    Marc

    Michel Poberejsky aka Mike Sparken (BTW, Marc) did not owned 6701 until 1971. In 1965 its was owned by Italian P. Ferraro who did not race it. Another special GTB...

    Thanks Tom: I did the article on 6885 and research on it and its siblings about 16 years ago (it was published a little after that) so not so fresh in mind and i have no interst in accumulating numbers!

    best regards,

    The year is NOT 1965.
    Correct is 29/30 July 1995 when raced by Frank Sytner during the Coys historic race festival in Silverstone on race #15, at the time the car was owned by Brandon Wang.

    Interesting. Nice to see BBR getting all the little details correct!! Only off by 30 years.

    Never thought I would meet Marcel Massini. Good to see you at both the FCA Road America and Milwaukee Lakefront Concourse.

    Ah that explains it: not a good idea to trust a label on a model!
