Converted race cars are always cool; converted Venturi race cars are off the scale...
There’s something a bit odd about the current fad for converting track-only hypercars into street-legal monsters. While they’re close to being race cars for the road, there isn’t the authenticity of competition pedigree or motorsport history; they can’t be competed in; and they can’t make for very nice road cars. Because they were built for track use. It all feels a bit unnecessary, a huge investment of time and money just to show off.
The Gentleman Driver’s Trophy is one of those things that could only have happened in the '90s, when seemingly every car manufacturer was flush with ideas and cash. It was Venturi’s one-make series, where racers would go against each other across Europe in identical 400 GT Trophys. It was reasonably popular, too, running across four seasons and with 72 cars built. Hardly the Caterham Academy for cads, but surely many more Venturi Trophy cars than you’d imagine would have been built.
