Prodrive
3rd July, 2009
Prodrive will be displaying and running some of the cars from
its 25 years in motor sport at this weekend’s Goodwood Festival of Speed in England.
The very first car Prodrive built in 1984, a Porsche 911 SCRS, will run up the hill, as will its very
latest, the Aston Martin LMP1. As a tribute to Britain’s two World Rally Champions, Prodrive will run a Colin
McRae Impreza and a Richard Burns Impreza WRC alongside the Porsche.
The Ferrari 550 GTS Maranello, which competed at Le Mans in 2004 and was also driven by McRae, will run
alongside the Aston Martin DBR9 in the GT class.
In addition, on static display will be the MG 6R4 driven by Jimmy McRae; the BMW M3 rally car, which
Prodrive ran in the late 1980s; Ari Vatanen’s Subaru Legacy and Alain Menu’s 2000 BTCC-winning Ford
Mondeo.
When not running, all the cars will be found on the Prodrive display area just behind the F1
Paddock.
