This is the story of the Luigi Racing Ford Sierra RS500 group A (# LR 1388) that raced in the 1988 European Touring Car Championship. Thierry Tassin, Jean-Claude Andruet, Romain Feilter and Georges Cremer campaigned it at the Nurburgring, Dijon, Spa 24 hours, Zolder EG Trophy and the Silverstone Tourist Trophy. The Zolder round would be the (only) highlight of the season with an unexpected P3 thanks to rainy weather and an inspired drive by Tassin. For the 1989 season, LR1388 took part in the Portuguese touring car championship with longtime Luigi customer, Christian Melville before Luigi sold the car to an Italian collector in April 1991.
