That looks fantastic. It's just like a race car.
The rear tyres on race cars are fatter than the front tyres, just look at the DBR9 for example:

That would be David Donahue - an accomplished driver in his own right.

i think that's the CGT that was parked for some time in Manthey's showroom. if so, the owner is a really hard core 'Ring lover, who also owns a lovely blue McLaren F1 (modified by Manthey), as well as a Manthey tuned 996 GT3, and a Manthey prepped GT3 cup car.

The F1.....

oh yeah... that GT3RS also belongs to the same fellow as well. he must know the 'Ring pretty well, having not only taken an intensive driver training course with none other than Dirk Schoysman himself, but also placed very well not too long ago in the 24hr race in his privately entered GT3 Cup car. i don't know if he's a 6speeder... but if you are on this board... when i grow up, i want to be like you!!!
