You know the routine by now...

The Rookie draught continues!

Up to the Pros...

That logo seems a bit Russian?

Djetset · « **Reply #4 on:** April 02, 2010, 08:27:29 AM »

The car is Russian around in this photo (

!), but it's not Russian.

Blue is the French racing colour: Is it French?

Djetset · « **Reply #6 on:** April 02, 2010, 08:34:11 AM »

No, c'est pas francaise.

British?

Is it a F3 car?

Djetset · « **Reply #12 on:** April 06, 2010, 09:41:11 AM »

Not 100% certain, and my source doesn't make it clear. Sorry!

DeAutogids.nl · « **Reply #13 on:** April 06, 2010, 09:42:07 AM »

Assume has a Ford engine?

Djetset · « **Reply #14 on:** April 06, 2010, 09:48:33 AM »

That bit I do know, and I know that it is not Ford-powered!

DeAutogids.nl · « **Reply #15 on:** April 06, 2010, 09:57:44 AM »

Climax?

Djetset · « **Reply #16 on:** April 06, 2010, 10:00:57 AM »

Stop Press! Just remember which Formula this car competed in, and it wasn't F3. Don't want to make it too easy by saying too much about the engine, but it is not Climax.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #17 on:** April 06, 2010, 10:08:39 AM »

Formula Renault?

Djetset · « **Reply #18 on:** April 06, 2010, 10:18:41 AM »

No, not a Formula Renault.

Looks like a seventies hillclimb vehicle to me. Three digit numbers, integral helmet, ads..

But that doesn't correspond well with what you wrote about the formula it has competed in...

Could it have an Imp engine, by the way?

Djetset · « **Reply #20 on:** April 06, 2010, 12:50:04 PM »

Wow, lots of questions, but you are right on one thing Faksta, as this car does have an Imp engine, which should help narrow it down.

faksta · « **Reply #21 on:** April 06, 2010, 01:02:12 PM »

It should be a Formula 4 car, then?

Djetset · « **Reply #22 on:** April 06, 2010, 01:05:29 PM »

You're right, and getting close to the answer!

faksta · « **Reply #23 on:** April 06, 2010, 01:15:28 PM »

Which is a 1969 Ginetta G17?

The car is used in historic hillclimbs nowadays, hence the integral helmet...

Djetset · « **Reply #24 on:** April 06, 2010, 01:25:43 PM »

I could see you were on the right track to get this one. Well done.
