OUR PROTAGONIST

The transformation into a racing car was completed in 1987, the period in which it began its racing career. This model won the 1987/88 and 1992 Italian GTS Championship, it also achieved other class victories in subsequent participations in social competitions. There are only two previous owners, with whom it won the Italian GTS Championship up to 2.000cc., in 1987 - 1988 with several class victories, including Vallelunga, Mugello and Monza.
During 1991 it was bought by the current owner, who in the first year of competitive activity, 1992, won the Italian Championship, GTS Class up to 2,000cc. with victories in Monza, Mugelllo, Vallelunga, Misano. The car was subsequently withdrawn from competitions, with the exception of participation in the annual Club Italia social competitions held in the Fiat Group's Balocco plant, where it was able to win in several editions.
