" John Pogson is a noted and successful independent Ferrari mechanic in the UK, proprietor of Italia Autosport, specializing in the F40. He also occasionally raced it, almost by happenstance. And the wild part of it is, to him especially, that he won\u2014again and again. The F40 is a shockingly analog car, with big, nasty turbo lag that can catch out the unawares or the overconfident, so maybe it wouldn&amp;#039;t be the best sort of ride for a semi-amateur clubman to debut in. Pogson, however, isn&amp;#039;t the typical amateur gentleman racer. He&amp;#039;d been building race cars for others since the early 1980s, and in 1995 he&amp;#039;d won the Ferrari Owners&amp;#039; Club Maranello Championship outright in a customer&amp;#039;s 328GTB.
