Default Ford GT40 & McLaren F1 Video

This bloke owns both and is a former World Sports Car Champion. Pays a real tribute to the GT40.

Thanks for sharing this great video and insight...on the heels of the AutoWeek Story on Ralph Lauren's Garage wherein Mr Polo describes the Mclaren as like no car he has ever driven...and this video describes the similarities of the Mclaren and GT40

Its only right seeing as Bruce Mclaren a driver of the original GT-40 in Le Mans is the creator of Mclaren. Which might be the reason for the similarities.

Glad you're enjoying it as much as I did.

I'm off now to drive the Heritage around the island a bit and take in some some beautiful Saturday sights.
