Prestcott French Italian Weekend May 2016

Prestcott French Italian Weekend May 2016

Post Number:#1  Post by Trebor » May 31st, 2016, 12:14

Been to Prestcott Hill Climb French Italian Meet over the weekend and what a superb event it was in the sunshine.

Its always a great event as the French weekend but coupling with Italian has made it even better than ever in my opinion, as it was like supercar city as you will see from the pictures.
Ones to look out for:

La Ferrari which costs £1m and has an electrically assisted 6.3 v12 engine, absolutely awesome and 950bhp !

Veyron Supersport, another £1m car and 1000bhp !

Zonda S - another stunning supercar but look out for the rear light lenses fixed with 3 rusting posi screws !

Ferrari 250GT, in BRG with the number 7. This was raced by Stirling Moss and Mike Parkes who both won races in it. Currently owned by Ross Brawn who was the Ferraris technical director when Michael Schumaker won the F1 world championship. Ross Brawn paid £7m for it 2 years ago and I was speaking to a guy called Darren who looks after Brawns vast car collection and he says it is now almost double that value at £14m yes £14m and I was standing right next to it taking pictures. Only Brawn is allowed to drive it !

The Beast of Turin ( Big and Red bearing number 15). This once held the land speed record and has a 4 cylinder 28.5 litre engine !

Look for the car that nicks the Veyron Supersports undercover parking space

Some very nice pics.

I guess the Zonda owner needs some training from an MGR owner/fettler.
