Rocking day today guys....!
 
4 full 20 minutes blasts were no problem for a Pozzi race-prepped piece that hadn't been run in 5 years...what's that tell you?

Tired now but will leave you with one last shot tonight of Dave on the grid early this morning...FULL update to follow:

I'm in love.


The lines on these cars -- and that motor midship - and the stacks... It's so "my era".


I'm going to have to cozy up to Mary and David MUCH more so he'll let me see it just once!


HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Congratulations David! What an accomplishment! That had to be an incredible feeling! :Tomcat: I caught the very end of it, but searched and found a replay for tonight! Yes!
From the little I saw it looked really cool. I bet it's fantastic in person! Definitely added being there in person to the bucket list!

It must have been early in the show, and I too missed it!

But it was great in person. You won't regret it Karl. One can spend days just walking the pits and not get bored.

I just saw that on TV and was going to dig up this thread to verify what I thought I was looking at. The car looked GREAT!

One of the nice things about Canada is we still have SPEED so this is playing all week. :D David's Lola is on around 23 minutes in - cool seeing it com TV! but nothing compares to seeing it in person. Great job and an awesome piece of history!!

My race had most of it yellow flagged due to a silver McLaren spinning. It took the rest of the race to tow him away so we didn't get much coverage. But they did a feature on the driver of the red car ahead of me. & I think used footage of our morning race. He is 81 years old, raced in the first Pebble Beach race in 1953, 60 years later this was his last race! He drove great.
