I might have some photos but could you provide us more details such as the driver, team or the livery of the car please?

Crikey how many 90D's were built?

EJR ran 3, don't know if they also had a spare?

CoBra had 2
Apomatox 2
Madgwick 2
GA 2

Can anyone recall who else ran them in Europe?

There's also Japan to consider?

I really have nothing other than a car. Presently red in colour and having been coverted to Formula Holden.

I found the 025 on the underside of the tub.

Anything at all would be appreciated.

For the '92 Season the Reynard 90D became eligible for Australian Formula Brabham (Holden).

According to the Black Book (Record of Grand Prix and Voiturette Racing, Volume 13) 90D-025 did not appear at a European F3000 race in 1990 or 1991.

The highest chassis number they list is 90D-033, so it was a popular car.

It could be that it raced in the All-Japan Championship for which they don't have chassis numbers but there seems to only have been 5 90Ds in that series which might help narrow things down.
Those 5 were:
Ross Cheever
Koji Sato (PIAA Racing)
Thomas Danielsson
Takuya Kurosawa
Johnny Herbert (Team LeMans).

I have a little more information.

Possibly one of thd GA Motorsports cars run in early 1991.

Amato Ferrari may have been one of the drivers.

This comes from Amato's name on the rear of a seat insert.

Any way of establishing what chassis numbers were on the GA Motorsports cars?

According to Mike Lawrence's Reynard book, 29 F3000 spec 90D's were built in 1990.

According to my Black Book Vol 13 Amato Ferrari had Reynard 90D-024 at the British F3000 rounds (page 109, 113, 115)

Thank you for that.

Are you able to advise of any other 90D chassis numbers that GA used?

Sure,

in F3000 International in 1990 they had:
* Reynard 90D-008 (Eric Van de Poele)
* Reynard 90D-019 (Giovanni Aloi, Otto Rensing, Marco Greco, Vittorio Zoboli)
* Reynard 90D (no number mentioned) (Thierry Délubac)

The cars in British F3000 in 1989 were
* Lola T89
* Reynard 90D-008 (Vittorio Zoboli)
* Reynard 90D (no number mentioned) (Thierry Délubac)

The cars in British F3000 in 1990 were
* Reynard 90D-024 (Amato Ferrari)

None of those cars you listed for the 1989 British series raced. The latest cars that could run were the previous seasons models ie 1988.

For some strange reason Mansell Madgwick were allowed to run Pedro Chaves in a Reynard 90D in the 1990 British championship , although as Thundersports says , the British championship was supposedly limited to the previous seasons cars . Chaves' car was sponsored by Mateus Rose and was finished in a bright red colour scheme . In 1990 Mansell Madgwick ran Paul Warwick and Marco Greco in 90Ds with Greco's Mugen powered machine also in a bright red colour scheme .

1990 was the one season that you could run current cars. The logic behind this was to attract cars from the over subscribed International series.

My apologies. I made a mistake in listing the years.
Of course, the Reynard 90D did not even exist in 1989 (at least: not race-ready surely)


It should have been like this:


in F3000 International in 1990 they had:
* Reynard 90D-008 (Eric Van de Poele)
* Reynard 90D-019 (Giovanni Aloi, Otto Rensing, Marco Greco, Vittorio Zoboli)

* Reynard 90D-008 (Thierry Délubac), Perry McCarthy

No i think at least one other 90D ran at the season ending Donington round (1 GA car and possibly another team), perhaps also in an earlier round.

It was called 'oocities' or something.

I've probably got most, if not all, of the race programmes & results, but it would take a while to exhume them!

Thank you very much for this.

Would it be possible that the car listed without number and driven by Thierry Délubac was my 025 car?

I am aware that my car was one of two imported together from GA Motorsports. One was converted/prepared to run in Formula Brabham/Holden, the other bring prepared in team livery and used as a show/promotional car.

Other pieces are voming together quite well.

Gert with respect that is so wrong that to put it right would mean starting again. As the results are on the web people just need to look at them.
