Wow Danny, I didn't know Diego passed away. I remember those days back in the 70's, when he took some loca news headlines with all his wonderful GT racing. Now, most of all the local car sport racing is drag racing oriented, something at least to me, boring. The fact of being racing a car for 6, 12 or 24 hours in an event is something that ask for something more than the preparation of the car itself, as for phisical pristine condition. If I'm not wrong, I guess Diego even took part of the 24 hours of Le Mans back in the 70's.
I think is a great thing what you're doing here by, not just make a great model with all those scratchbuilding, if not, to honor one of the great latin drivers of all times.
