ian beckett should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
To Grelley:My notes indicate that the Ferte/Horizon car was in more modified Supertourisme trim and certainly in '91 was fitted with a 2.7 litre engine.Ferte did indeed come 5th in that years series but I have no record of the car having had a big crash that would require a re-shell despite having all that seasons results.I note however that the team did not race at Ledenon or Nogaro so there could have been a testing crash which could explain things? At the end of the season,the team disbanded and BMW France now ran a two car team for Ferte and Jean-Pierre Malcher.There cars were new and built to full DTM spec'.I know that the car you say is the ex-Ferte/Horizon car was for sale for some time in Switzerland in September '05 for 57,000Euros at www.carclassic.com Is this where you acquired it from? The car was exactly as it had raced back in '91.
