[Nardo GT]

The title is "around the world in a Ford GT"........it doesn't say which, or how many GTs. I/we can always buy another. Had pretty good luck buying GTs.

I recieved a pm about a GT OWNER , who will be driving his GT from Ireland..........to the classic LeMans..........in July.

Around the world!!!

Joey,

[Nardo GT]

[gtjoey]

What's this????

Hey is that GTJIMMY Jr. with Derek Bell in a GT 40?
Are they trying to drive "around the world" like Nardo & GT Joey? No, maybe just around Sebring Raceway at MAX-SPEED!

 

[GTJIMMY]

GTJOEY, Thank you for posting the photos of James at Sebring with Derek Bell. We had a great time listening to his stories at the Hall of Fame lunch. I asked him if Derek was cracking jokes while they did their Hot Laps. He said Derek was pretty quiet and focused on hitting every apex so they could keep the Corvette driven by Johnnie O'Connell right behind them where it belonged!
