I heard the cars from my home and drove over.I thought I would share some pics.
That is Bruce Canepa driving the Coka Cola Porsche
I think it is his clients car,who also drove it.
He is the one driving the 959.I saw him cruising around town the day before and thought it was a kit.

The Grand am cars are going to be at Laguna on May 16th weekend.I have a freind that is trying to get together all the old IMSA cars from the 70's as a support race.I am pretty sure this is going to happen.I will find out more and post
Of coarse if you are coming from Spain,you should attend the Historic car races in August.This is one of the largest car gatherings in the World.
Besides the Historics,you have the Pebble Beack Concours,5 or 6 High End auctions,Concorso Italiano,Carmel Ocean Ave Concours,ECT.
You will see any kind of car you have ever have dreamed about driving around town and on the track

Not a kit.It is the real deal.When I saw it driving around town,I assumed it was a kit.
The next day it was at Laguna,and it is indeed the real thing.100% sure.It was one of the many that Bruce Canepa's shop maintains.Another couple being Jerry Seinfeild's and Mr Bill Gates.
Last time I was at Canepas there were 7 and the time before 15.They are sent there from all over the World to be massaged.Bumping them from 450 HP to 600 hp
The latest bump now is 650 HP

Wow, so what's the deal, does he federalize them, sell, or just kits? I'd LOVE to pick one of those up, very sweet indeed.
