Nice!
I think the problem was that your file names were too long. Try shorter names with no spaces or punctuation other than dashes.

the 1st car (orange) is a type 787 (a formula 2 car). 1957 was the 1st year for this car, dont know how late they made them, buti know they had a great season with them in 60.
behind the 1st car is a 904 (no explanation needed) the blue one.. wow.. i am really stumped there

The orange car looks like a `59/`60 type-718 Formula 2 car (preceeded the 787).
Agree that the black car in the background is a 904.

Orange car looks like the '61 version of the 4-cam Formula 2 car.
Blue one looks like a '74 3.0 RSR.

... you guys really have all the answers. Pictures were taken last weekend at our local circuit here in The Netherlands, Zandvoort. This weekend was the Rob Slotemaker memorial weekend. Rob was a famous dutch racediver who was killed during a race at Zandvoort in the seventies. Rob drove several famous cars but was well known for his driving during The Le Mans movie with Steve M. Th orange car is indeed a Formula 2 racingcar. This one was built in 1960 and together with the sister car bought from the factory in 1962 by, and to be driven by a, other famous dutch driver, Karel Godin de Beaufort. The then already aging cars where driven in the Grand Prix's of 1962 and 1963 and aquired 2 important points. This car was the training car for the 1964 German grand prix and, while trying to quallify, the sister car was involved in a accident in which Karel Godin de Beaufort got killed.
The blue car indeed a 911 3,0l RSR 330bhp, 1974 (only 54 were built), this was actually driven last saturday and sunday by Gijs van Lennep. I had a very exciting weekend which was unique for The Netherlands with many special cars,including old formula 1 cars (driven by M. Bleekemolen) I would describe this weekend as a mini LeMans, unfortunately very few spectators. Regards, Gerko 1978sc |
