During the 2022 Dix Mille Tours historic weekend by Peter Auto I saw again one of those mythical pieces of automotive history that I'd have never imagined to see in person some years ago. But thanks to championships like Endurance Racing Legends, these cars have begun to be resurrected again and used by their current owners.The white Esperante GTR-1 in this video is one of the two in the hand of the French specialists @jmbclassic and during the weekend it was raced in the championship by my kind friend Olivier. Before the event, on Thursday, there was a private free practice session which the JMB guys used to check if everything was ok on the car. French racing driver Emmanuel Collard was behind the wheel for for this purpose (don't ask me why he's not wearing any gloves on his right hand because I really don't know the reason..). This seemed to me a good opportunity to get again some onboard footage of the Esperante.
The GTR-1 was built for the FIA GT Championship GT1 class, featuring a Ford-derived 6.0-litre V8 engine, developed by Panoz's Élan Power Products company, and mated to a 6-speed sequential gearbox. It was able to produce 600 hp at 8,000 rpm and 678 Nm of torque.
