Many of you know Peter Cipolla and his IMSA IS Merkur XR4Ti race car. Peter and
this car have been to Carlisle a couple times, but the race-track is where this
car belongs, and Peter makes frequent visits. Over the past year Peter has been
busy, but not so much with his IS car. Instead, he located and purchased the
only IMSA GTU Merkur XR4Ti race car ever built, which was funded by Ford in 1983
in preparation for the Merkur launch in 1985. In conjunction with this addition
to his "Merkur Race Car Garage", Peter has created
a web-site on these cars and other racing
Merkurs. It's a must-visit for any Merk-head!Visit www.XR4TiRacing.com to see more. |

Merkurs descended upon Madison, New Jersey on October 7th for the annual Bottle
Hill Day Car Show. This event has become a perennial favorite over the
years, and once again we had a big turn-out of Merkur owners from three states.
After a chilly start to the day, the sun appeared and it turned out to be a
great day for both the car show and the neighboring street fair.Speaking of neighbors, a big thanks to Sue and Phil Dorsey, who opened up their house after the show so that the part could continue into the evening for the fireworks display. A great day for all who attended! Thanks to Frank Cheh who took the photos of the event. |
