March 822 in close-up detail

[BritishV8]

We've just uploaded article number 100 in the BritishRacecar.com series!

I've mentioned before that I'm keen to broaden the project's scope to include newer and faster cars. Well, this newest car is a big step forward. It's a 1982 vintage Formula Two racecar, complete with carbon fiber bodywork, ground effects, etc., etc. This car circles Watkins Glen at an average speed of 110mph! Here's the link:
