Championnat de France des Circuits?


Was it built by Ecurie Defense Mondiale or raced by them?

Not that.
(maybe it raced in that series as well, but as my knowledge on this car is rather limited I would say no!)

Is #14 the barquette built by Almeras Freres?

Not the name I have.

I guessed so because the race number plate reads 'Defense Mondiale'  ::)

Do you still refer to car #13 or to #14 thus Djetset's last reply?
My source reports nothing about 'Defense Mondiale' , so apologizes that I didn't recognize it.
Nevertheless the name of the car is a different one. Maybe it's the name of the sponsor on the sticker, maybe the name of the racing team – I don't know!

Nope, #13 of course, as I see Djetset is right with #14.

I'm not sure, but I believe to 99% that is not a Ford under the hood.

This car is obviousely built by someone else than the "Ecurie" you've mentioned.

All involved names are originally written on the car, but sadly I had to remove them.  :'(

Oh, OK. I don't know how much I can ask because I don't know how many information you have and all the hints the car contains did not lead me to any certainty yet. I'll try better :)

I give you two hints: my source reports a racing class 8-9. Does this ring any bell?

I believe its engine is smaller than 1,5 litre, but this could as well be wrong!
