It's rare to see a 1966 Ginetta G12. I had the pleasure of filming this UK racing version with OnBoard during some free practice sessions at the Mugello circuit. The car belongs to Matteo Panini, historic cars collector and a proper gentleman driver. We have to thank him for allowing us to install an action cam inside. Built-in a few specimens, it looks like a small two-seater coupé powered by a 1.6-litre twin-cam 4-cylinder in-line mid-rear engine. The power is respectable, about 160hp at 7,500 rpm and the performances, thanks also to the weight of only 780kg, are excellent. The top speed is close to 225 km/h (140 mph). The gearbox is a 5-speed by Hewland, and there are Girling disc brakes on each wheel. As you will notice from the onboard footage, the Ginetta G12 performs very well even on fast tracks such as the Mugello circuit.
I have to thank also my friends and YouTubers:
