    My understanding:

    The torch from the Statue of Liberty and the blue background is the New York sky. The overall shield design is a nod to the old Italian racers such as the P Ferraris. The flash colours along the top are red, white, and blue for the United States of America.

    SCG = Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus. Cameron is his wife's maiden name, and it was a romantic gesture to list her family name first.​

    Do correct me if I'm wrong, Jim. :)

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    The shape of the shield and the term Scuderia has been used for hundreds of years. Ferrari used it from inception based on SF shields that were previously used on SF Alfas and the city of Stuttgart used it and the prancing horse in the 1500's.

    The red, white and blue bands on the top are the colors of the US flag.

    Best

    Scutum in latin is shield, which is Scudo in Italian. That's where the word Scuderia comes from.

    That might be the translation but the (intent) transliteration is "team". :D

    I think both are right in that a Stable races under a Shield as Knights ride under a shield of Someone.

    I've been following the progress updates on Facebook and it looks great! Really interesting to follow the entire process from concept to build to roll out to (being preemptive I know) VICTORY!

    The whole car looks so modular. What advantages/disadvantages does this bring?

    There are a lot of advantages to modular construction. Any handy person with simple tools can take the car apart fix it and put it back together quickly. All parts are CAD so they exist in mathematics and can be easily reproduced. Our longest lead time part our tub is 6 weeks.
    In the event of an accident every mounting is zero reference. You unbolt damaged part and measure mount. If mount is within specs it's undamaged. The Road to Race and Race to Road plug an play conversion kits are simple to install and either way conversion can be done in hours. You can enter a major race and then convert it to a road legal car between races as you wish.

    I been driving exotics for 40 years and have learned a lot about what makes a good usable road car. Winning an FIA Championship shows we can build a race car that works and all of that knowledge is going into this one. We had very interesting talks with organizers and if sales go well we will be racing at Le Mans in 2016 as well as other great races.

    I know what I'm about to say will seem silly to some but when our Two Car Team pulls into The Nurburgring a lot of people are going to be gobsmacked.

    Our unveiling at Geneva will Rock The House.

    If any of you are interested in what may become a part of MotorSports History let me know.

    Let me get this straight ... because people like me are (merely) enthusiasts we get to peek into the birthing of a new racing car? This must be almost unprecedented.
    I met Mr. G. at No Problem Raceway - in Louisiana - about 9 or 10 years ago when he was here for the French Quarter Ferrari Classic. I talked to him for 2 or 3 minutes before I knew that a lot of the really neat toys on display were his (Lola T70 coupe, GT40 Mk IV, etc) and well before I knew of his accomplishments in other fields of endeavor. Seemed like a regular car guy, which is borne out by these sneak pics.
    The only comparison I have personally experienced was going through AAR in late November of 1995. The day before I had seen Dan Gurney at the inaugural Palm Springs vintage races, & he invited me to his shop the next day. So I went with my new wife on the last day of our honeymoon. We looked around the shop & the shop attic (where resided Bobby Unser's 1972 Indy 500 pole winning Eagle minus its engine). Then we were taken into a separate area where the 1st Eagle Toyota GTP car was taking shape. Historians take note that this was the car which Dennis Aase (sp?) crashed in testing due to component failure. Now let me tell you that there are scant few whom I hold on the same plateau as Daniel Sexton Gurney, but this insider's look courtesy of Mr. G. is bringing back those memories. For that, I say, "thanks a million"!
    BTW: my respect & admiration for Dan remains intact; the marriage, sadly, does not.
