Great racing history. It would be nice to read your father's comments alongside some of the photos. Did he ever race at la Guacima in Costa Rica?

I visited that track a few times in the early 90's for Formula 3 races.

Thanks for posting.

Great pictures, Diego! Thanks for sharing them with us. I am sure that your Dad will enjoy seeing them and reliving those fun moments he spent behind the wheel.

Saludos,

The BMW’s we drive today handle better, stop quicker and are much safer then they were back in the day… A big player in the development of a manufactures vehicle are its factory race teams… No better example then BMW… Your dad was one of people who helped create the “JOY” us BMW owners drive and enjoy today… Please, thank him for what he did…

That's really cool to see period racing in Latin America, (not sure which country). I especially liked the pictures of the family and freinds. Looks like a good life of racing from an early age. The 2002 ti looks like it was put to good use!

Also props to the Camaro(?) at the end with the "Why Be Normal" on the back spoiler.

Thank you very much for Sharing,

An excellent point! Thanks Fernando! The 06 M roadster I just spent some time in certaily benefited from your father's exploits :-)
