What were you driving then mate...Weird that we met back then and I didn't realise it.......
My old Grigio Alfieri 3200. There must be a couple of pictures knocking around from that day - think it was in the second row on the grid when we took the group pics. From memory nobody knew anyone that well and I spent as much time on track as possible, hence the smoking brakes!
The car in front of mine was Jezza's 3200. Loz's 4200 was behind mine on the grid - that was the day his F1 pump packed up. Lots of cars & owners we no longer hear about. Wonder where some of them are now - Malc H with his Spyder & Ghibli track car, Steve's immaculate green 3200, that spotless red 3200, the black AC which I think was sold to make way for a 355....

I know that Steve sold his green 3200.....He didn't take it out much on track that day...Then I took for a ride around in the CSL and it blew him away I think....His 3200 was spotless as well but as you say the red one was just in amazing condition.
It was probably the best example of a 3200 I'd ever seen, literally flawless. The owner was meticulous and IIRC kept it cosseted under soft covers in a heated garage. His son was telling us how the owner loved and cherished the car and that the family were all scared to go near it in fear of damaging or scratching it. The guy then delivered the surprise of his son's life by allowing him to take it around Goodwood with an instructor on board! Owner stayed in the pits as he didn't want to witness it first hand!!
