Coming Soon: Rippies Assault on Le Mans - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Daniel_Mc · 02-04-2013

Ok guys we are working on doing a story on Doug Rippies 24 Hour run at Le Mans back in 1995 for an upcoming Heart of the Beast issue. This has been touched on in the past but we are hoping to dig deeper and talk about things that have not been brought to light much. Since 1995 the car itself was left overseas and has been RACED. However without the LT5 power plant. It has now been put back the way it was originally constructed. Here’s a couple of Past pictures and a few of the car now. If anyone has a story or picture post it up!
