GP in a GP

My colleague Christians father, Guy, has been visiting USA from France recently … Guy has driven many cars during his life, including F1 and Formula 3000 cars, and has raced - including “real” ice racing … so yesterday I gave him the keys to GPMINI:

Guys first comment on his return - what a shame the speed limits are so low around Essex & Gloucester :)

Guy also thanked me for letting him drive “his” car - the GP is perhaps named after him (Guy Peyla)!

    He obviously misunderstood if he thought MA drivers obeyed speed limits..! ;) Glad he liked it. Seems like you’re getting very liberal with handing out those keys. :)

    What would have been real fun…. an incar Cam! Nice of you to let him drive it… hey how come I didn’t get the chance in Monterey?

    Hey Robert, it’s not so new and precious now as it was then ;)

    Ian, it is still only one of 2000. And still only one of approx. 60 in the US so far. I think it is very precious and very special!

    Yeah, yeah, yeah!
