BPR series !! The F40 GTE's were very fast and often set pole but were only able to win one or two races. They had constant reliability problems.

I don't rememer the exact differences, but the LM cars had larger restrictors which weren't required in BPR (smaller ones used) and I believe that in BRP trim Benny told me they made over 700 hp.

I do remember seeing Benny's GTE next to his LM and the GTE had a bigger wing and front splitter and the gearbox in his GTE was a sequential race gearbox (likely a Hewland box).

It's my understanding Benny sold the GTE after it was rebuilt (he had a slight fender bender at the Glen in 01).

And yes Duke sells the 95 year in review here in the states.
