I believe that Gary is bring the car to the Hulme Festival along with the Cologne Capri - that will be worth seeing again.

I stumbled onto some newly posted videos of those sensational Zakspeed beasts (and a few others too);

Hi All,

There was a second car and possibly a third, but not Zakspeeds. Copies build in Asia?? 82/83 period.
Mike Mettan was the driver of one at some point, could have had a Rotary fitted!!!
Sorry don't know more than that.

Cheers,

Gary.

Hi Richy,

Hi Gary, I'm a massive fan of this car... absolutely mind blowingly track stoppingly awesome. Thanks for bringing it out to NZFMR, and thanks also for taking the time to have a quick chat about the car (even though you probably had about 1 million people do this!).

Anyway, a brief photojournal of this car from me, if I may:

Hi Les,

The name Mike Mattan I have heard of before. I have a couple of photos of a car that looked very similar to a Zakspeed car, it was sponsored by Channel 9. I am sure this car was a copy as it has some Gp 2 and Gp 5 features. I will try to locate these photos and post then.

Cheers,

Gary
