Yeah - I recognize it. I must say that the timing of your post is very appropriate but I'm not posting the answer until more people have a chance to guess.

Ciao,

John B.


PS - This one might be hard to find info for since they DNF'd with engine failure. I think there's a picture of the drivers standing together in Nigel Trowe's book but I'm at work so I can't say for sure until later.

Too bad the Stratos never did better. You'd think it would have since it is such a good tarmac car.

PS - That picture is on page 136.

I'd guess '77 Le Mans then, based on your comments. Is there anything this car can't do?

Without going to look up any details, I would guess that this is from Le Mans some years ago. The car has 'Aseptogyl' sponsorship, which I seem to recall featured a lot of pink!

No idea of the drivers, nor the year.

Note that the front spoiler should be suitable as a candidate for use even on a 'production class' Stratos in the Auto Italia series...

It was two women, french I think, but I can't remember their names
