What car is being labelled as a Ginetta in American Le Mans Series racing? --Falcadore (talk) 08:24, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The LMP1 Zytek as Ginetta chairman Lawrence Tomlinson bought into an equal share of Zytek, with their founder Bill Gibson. Mentioned here. Cs-wolves (talk) 13:10, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So it's actually a Reynard. Should be in this article somewhere as some ALMS races link here. --Falcadore (talk) 20:58, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ginetta G6[edit]

Need references/description of Ginetta G6-D.K.W. --Rupertlt (talk) 13:20, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ginetta G8[edit]

This is the designation of the F3 car from 1964 (see article)? --Rupertlt (talk) 14:32, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Opening copy-pasted from Ginetta's website[edit]

The whole opening to the article is copied from Ginetta's about page, which while from the source certainly paints them in a favorable light. I'm new to editing Wikipedia but this doesn't seem to be the spirit of it, if I find some sources should this rewritten? CRK0116 (talk) 05:39, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You are quite correct and it is the second time it has happened. I have reverted it.Malcolma (talk) 08:58, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

G26 picture is a G28[edit]

I owned a G26, and it had pop-up lights. I think the picture shown is a G28 KeithC (talk) 13:44, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

G26, G27, G28, G30 and G31[edit]

When I bought my G26 in around 1986, Ginetta was still owned by the Walklett brothers and still based in Witham. They moved to Scunthorpe in around 1989, I believe. KeithC (talk) 14:13, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
