    Can any one help me please.Seven years ago I had a rush of blood to the head and traded my black 308 GTS for a full blown racecar. This car had recently been bought into the UK by Paul Osbourne. Saw this guy on saturday at Donington park race circuit in a ferrari F1. The cars extensive history includes photographs with Auto toystore as the sponsor
    I have had a great experiances and made new friends within the racing fraternity. I mainly raced in a series named the Intermarque, this was run by the Aston Martin Owners club. I raced against Jaguar 220,s AC Cobras (real ones) Porsches,Astons,and Ferraris.
    Can any one recall this racecar
    The car is for sale along with my other racecar a road registered 355 Challenge at www.rossocorsa.co.uk Pictures should be on the website shortly

    You say you bought this car.
    You say you raced this car extensively.
    You say it came with extensive records.
    You say you have lots of photographs of the car.
    You say it is now for sale on some website.
    You seem to be in the UK.

    And yet, you are asking us, in the northern California section, for information on the car????

    Sorry, I don't get it.

    Maybe someone recalls this car racing in scca racing in northern California.All the race results i have show the car racing against corvettes and Cobras and its the only Ferrari racing in that series. The car was built in the USA from a doner 308 from the Netherlands. Perhaps some one raced against the car.Some people actually race real cars, some people go karting tvrfreak.

    I don't get it, you're asking if anyone can 'recall' this car, in the middle of a for-sale ad?

    I recall each and every track I've ever driven on, at any speed.

    Really not sure what you're looking for here, other than a free ad and taking some pot shots at FC veterans. Not a great way to promote your wares.

    I am so sorry if I hit a nerve With the Karting jibe. Please leave me alone,tvrfreak and atherd. please don,t get any of your other chums involved.I promise I will never comment or reply again.

    PS The car was transformed from a perfectly good 308 GTB into a trashy, Vulgar, loud,over the top racecar built by AMERICANS from your neck of the woods. tvrfreak your absolutely right it is"a pile of ****"

    Yours sincerely fellow Ferrari enthusiast

    Instead of wasting time with crappy cars, why don't you try karting? :D

    OK, look, let's start again. Your first post was completely incoherent. I just didn't understand what you were after. Even now, I am not sure I do. I think what you are saying is, you had a fibreglass 308 racecar, it's now for sale, and you would like to complete its history by asking if anyone recalls any of the races it was in while it was campaigned here in California.

    There were a few other items you mentioned, ie. some Phile Osbourne, new friends, Intermarque (which I presume was a series in England and not related to SCCA) etc. which made it difficult to decipher your post. But I think you are just asking if anyone remembers this car while it was raced in California.

    You might want to fill out your profile and post your request in the racing section.
