Today I came across this article. I know that I was 11 and went with my mum to a show nearby( in the place where I live now)
The article translated: On 24th of july 1982 there was a truckshow in Dronten.
The cars used by the french stuntteam from Maurice Bataille were 4 131 Supermirafioris 1300TC. The tyres were pumped up till 9 Bar so they couldn't came off the wheel. A great show. On the way home it seemed better not to try the same with my own 131.(translation, I only had model cars by then!)
Maybe there is possible to find more info about this guy with his team on the internet or anybody has some more information and maybe better pictures. When I remember it well the cars were silver with blue painted bumpers?! Anybody knows about it? Sorry for the bad quality of the material.

Amazing!!

The bottom photo looks like series 1 cars so not Supermirafioris - Is that a separate event?

I completely don't know. I expect that picture is older as the ones above. That were the cars we saw during the event and about that the translator talked. I hope it will be continued and somebody can tell us more!

I saw a whole 30 minute TV show with them years ago so there might be something on YouTube.
