This very good news for fans of classic racing was in my mail box this morning:

Dear Racing Enthusiasts:

It may be of interest to you to know that provisional arrangements have been made to reproduce to a higher standard and performance a small number of the world's most exciting and successful Grand Prix machines, the 500 cc MV Augusta.

I will be pleased to hear from anyone with the interest and ability to become involved with
this exciting project to return these great bikes to the world's GP circuits.I am confident that Ago could be encouraged to be Team Manager of the proposed MV Classic Race Team.

I await your replies with great interest,
Phil Read MBE, 8 x world champion
