Rare factory PTS British Racing Green over CXX interior 991 GT2 RS that has only known one German keeper since new and presents several personalized touches, making this car very unique and special. Later on, the full MR Kit was installed at Manthey Racing, who also serviced the car throughout its full ownership and therefore knows the car very well.

mars. there is a book, "croatian god mars" that stood on our shelves when i was young, too young to read it back then, and i just thought it was neat. then i realised its both a god and a PLANET and i became obsessed. i also think its very fitting for me. (special shout out to pluto, which is a planet in my heart no matter what anyone says).
I'd Present my tribute painting to Carroll Shelby win at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans; I've decide to add sound effects to make you get the feeling experiencing of going down the Mulsanne Straight at high speeds in the Aston Martin DBR1.
My DeviantArt description of my piece is below.
"In 1959 the Aston Martin backed David Brown Racing setout to make history at Le Mans with the DBR1; Delivering the brand first win in the grueling twenty four hour race with a three car team (numbered 4-6) comprised of the six finest drivers car no. 4 (Stirling Moss and Jack Fairman), car no.5 (Carroll Shelby and Roy Salvadori) and car no. 6 (Maurice Trintignant and Paul Frère). Behind the Wheel is a 36 year old American Race Car Driver from Leesburg, Texas named Carroll Shelby; Shelby has served an USAAF Pilot during World War 2, after the war he drifted trough various entrepreneurial efforts involving a variety things from dump trucks to poultry; Before finding his true calling as a racing driver for hire, Shelby is not only battling for the win but secretly for his very life against a heart condition that is predicted to kill him within two years. The Young Texan perseveres with the aid of a nitroglycerine pill that keeps his heart problems in check long enough to reach victory lane; Carroll Shelby has just achieved what many drivers often dream about but very few do a win at Le Mans, but his story doesn't end here this merely part of his final bow as a driver; He will outlive his doctors original diagnosis by several years thanks to advances in medical science, During this time Shelby will found Shelby America which would breath new life into the AC Ace with the addition of a Ford V8 Engine; Creating both the Shelby Cobra and Shelby Daytona Coupe which would led to his involvement in both the Ford Mustang and the Ford GT40, the latter of both would see his return to Le Mans 1964-1967 as a manufacturer thus making him the only person to ever win as both a driver and a constructor."
Thanks for Reading I hope y'all enjoy see this as did making it, I had fun making this painting and video as well.
