Earleir in the year at Donington I was told about a rather nice Italian icon that in previous seasons had been a mid-field runner but this time out had pretty much walked away with its race.
I have no idea how much the general fettling, lightening and suspension/braking system redesign and replacement cost but the figure for the engine work alone was deeply into 5 figures.
Nice, I suppose, if one has the wherewithal. Presumably running and travel costs along with entry fees become a little insignificant in such cases.
