    Whose car and where am I?

    Hey All,

    Likely easy for those who know this kind of racing...

    The dots just cover up a name and flag...

    My heroes have always been cowboys and they all carried guns-
    and they all rode horses-that is all but one.
    When he went to the rescue he flew a Cessna plane.
    His ranch was called the "Flying Crown" and "Sky King" was his name. -Jim Dilly-

    Hey All,

    The first was easy to ID - where is harder and I suspect only a few might know where that car is. A clue if you love model trains you may be able to guess the correct city.

    The second I suspect only a true F1 afficiaondo will know. Suffice to say it is affiliated with a heavy truck company.-Ed-

    Hey All,

    Well I'll just tell you. I actually thought Ferry might know the answers.

    The Schumacher car that he drove for 400 meters at Spa in 93 if I recall correctly is at the auto prototype museum in Hamburg Germany. It is a very small museum but pretty cool. If you are ever in Hamburg I recommend it.

    The second car is one that few would know. It is an F1 Williams car with a cvt. Cvt is a continuously variable transmission. It was test driven by Coulthard in 93 I think an was fast. The F1 governing body decided not to allow cvts because they were too fast!!! This car is now in the DAF museum in Eindhoven Netherlands. The DAF museum was outstanding. DAF has a long history in multiple kinds of racing and has created fascinating cars and trucks throughout time. Now days DAF is trucks and is a part of Paccar who also owns Kenworth and peterbuilt. The mx engines in peterbuilt and Kenworth trucks are DAF engines.

    Yes my wife and I flew to Heathrow and drove to Hamburg and back wonderful trip and I can post more from Hamburg eindhoven and elsewhere. And I don't even want to start on driving in England. Suffice to say I survived!

    Just a little trivia from a NASCAR fan.
