This particular unit was one of the most successful ever built with it taking eight out of a possible nine victories during the 1993 Italian GT Championship while being piloted by driving-ace Marco Brand.

The car also claimed numerous victories the following season while being piloted by a selection of other drivers such as Mauro Trione and Oscar Larrauri.
