Inside is once more a finely curated selection of slow stories on fast cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

First of all, we have an in-depth look at the Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato, the UK\u2019s answer to the Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta. When Aston Martin saw their own initiative to produce a shortened, lightened DB4 racer \u2013 the DB4GT \u2013 come up short, they turned to Zagato for an even lighter, more aerodynamically efficient version. The resulting Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato is one of the world\u2019s most exclusive GT racing cars. Only 19 chassis exist, making the DB4GT Zagato currently the most sought-after Aston Martin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nationales Automuseum \u2013 The Loh Collection<\/a> let us out on the road in their car, chassis 0180. This car \u2013 in Moroccan racing colours \u2013 carried race number #1 and was lined up first at the start of the 1961 Le Mans 24 Hours. With race number #14 \u2013 as depicted by Rafael Varela on our cover \u2013 it appeared at the Paris 1000 Km, held at the Monthl\u00e9ry race track with its famous banked turn. Racing alongside the semi-works \u20181VEV\u2019 and \u20182VEV\u2019, 0180 was one of the most remarkable Aston Martin DB4T Zagatos to have raced. And is anything but a trailer queen today, as we found out on the road for ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marcus Gr\u00f6nholm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marcus Gr\u00f6nholm won two world titles and is the third most successful WRC rally driver ever, behind S\u00e9bastien Loeb and S\u00e9bastien Ogier. We look back with the Fin and the highs and lows of his formidable career. \u201cIt was mid-way through the Ouninpohja stage (Rally Finland, 2007) that I decided I would stop rallying. I was driving like an idiot, scaring myself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A.J. Foyt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In an exclusive excerpt from Art Garner\u2019s new biography on A.J. Foyt \u2013 the first of two volumes \u2013 we go back to 1977, to the day Foyt wrote history at the Indy 500 by becoming the first quadruple winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skoda 200 RS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You may not know this car, as only three of these were ever built. When Skoda organized an international rally \u2013 Rallye Skoda, now Rally Bohemia \u2013 in its home town for the first time, 50 years ago, it wanted to put up a strong showing. Eager to put up a fight with the Alpine A110, Skoda created its own rear-engined, rear-wheel drive rival; the 200 RS. For Skoda, this is where the RS story started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

60 Years of Formula Vee in Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On a cold September day in Hockenheim, Germany, sixty years ago. Just as Porsche was readying the premi\u00e8re of its new 901 model \u2013 later, the 911 \u2013 factory test driver Herbert Linge was busy on another project: assessing the potential of a new, entry-level single-seater series Ferry Porsche had bought in the US. We recreate the day Porsche kickstarted Formula Vee in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And much more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We recall the final race of the DTM series on the Nordschleife in 1993, we look at both the Jaguar C-type and Jaguar Classic\u2019s C-type Continuation, and there is the portrait of the first man to crack 200 mph, 250, 260, 270,\u2026 Don Garlits (92) helped make drag-racing into the sport it is now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
