Great Car . I don't think Graeme would mind me saying that 3 generations of Ricardo's have had a go on the tiller on the GTV  over the years.

If Graeme is struggling to find a photo of the car here's the screen saver photo on my home computer. , Sandown turn 4,  circa 2012. Mine is the silver GTV and Graeme's is the "Piper Yellow???" GTV. He was just about to" eat me alive up the back straight".   A quick check on Natsoft results shows that the car was doing 1 min 34 sec that day . Still very respectable times.

I have very fond memories of an epic trip to the NSW 6-HR with Graeme, Allan Goodall, and Dave Crump, maybe even Robbie Dale, 20 years ago - my god 20 years!!!  Apart from being the weekend I wrote off my first GTV6 it was also the trip when we stopped in the side of the Hume for an inpromptu BBQ when the brakes seized and caught fire on one if the trailers. Graeme did the cooking and we were joined at various times by a several Alfisti on the way home. I recall Beninca's, Sharps, and others.

Good with the luck Graeme. Hope you find a good home for her.

Was that the accident that led to your nick name " MOMO" after the steering wheel made an impression on your chest after the accident ???
