INDY CAR - FLORIDA - MARCH 29TH


The season opener for Indy Cars was held at Homestead, Florida. With this result:

1st Place - Scott Dixon

2nd Place - Marco Andretti

3rd Place - Dan Wheldon

THIRD ROUND OF THE TOP 100

I never liked the Lotus Europa very well, but I know a lot of people did so it was able to grace this list. I like the Land Rover Defender very much, but never considered it to ever be part of the top 100 most beautiful cars. Just my thoughts.

89 - MERCEDES-BENZ 500K/540K

88 - MASERATI 3500GT

87 - MASERATI 250F

86 - LOTUS EUROPA

85 - LAND ROVER DEFENDER

SECOND ROUND OF THE TOP 100

The automobiles that were in the first round, the bottom of the TOP 100, I would have put them further up the ladder. I liked all five of those. In this grouping the only ones that I am not fond of are the Peugeot 406 and the Nissan. I am sure that they are both fine cars, just not for me.

95 - TOYOTA 2000 GT

94 - PEUGEOT 504 COUPE

93 - PEUGEOT 406

92 - NISSAN 300ZX

91 - MINI

MOTOR ART....DEXTER BROWN


Dexter was born in London in 1942. He studied at Harrow College of Art 1956-1960. His teachers included such respected painters as Ken Howard RA and Fred Cumin RA. Recognition for his work began in 1967 with his solo exhibition at the Monte Carlo Galleries in Alexandria, VA. (USA) and subsequently through exhibitions at the Thackeray Gallery, London. He also exhibited at the RI and the RBA in London and was elected RI in 1967.

Dexter has been on the world automotive art scene for nearly three decades. His work, which in the past decade has evolved into a significant abstract expression of racing images, has been the subject of articles and exhibitions throughout Europe. The images he has created for Ferrari and Porsche have been featured in advertising, magazines and other forms of mass media for many years.
