[offroadmike]

I know, that car sounds sexy. ITs too bad it was never really raced.

When Dario Benuzzi drove it for the first tests, he was soon faster than the 333SP...imagine...a newborn car, at the first test, faster than a prototype for the IMSA series!!! :shock: :shock:

It sounds like a Formula 1...only 3 were built if I'm not wrong.

yes and no.

3 were completely built, and 3 more were in the process (their chassis were ready).
When the series the F50 GT was intended for was closed before it even started, the first 3 cars were sold to privateers, but they weren't allowed to race them.
the 3 remaining chassis were destroyed by court order.

Thanks for the link KaBlookie! I've seen pictures of the F50 GT but never seen it in action, so this is great. Also, the high quality pictures are a plus too.
