A nice look back ...........
For the Corvette Racing enthusiasts in the group this is a nice look back 20 years to the mighty C5.R
https://www.corvetteforum.com/articl...t-paul-ricard/ and this reminds me, for those that are in to sports car racing and are 'old enough to remember' , you really owe it to yourself to take in Vintage weekend at Watkins Glen. It's the weekend after Labor Day every year. A great venue ....... Last edited by Mikado463; 10-30-2019 at 09:32 AM. |

Thanks, Dave.
Amazing, the "state of the art" in 1960. Was surprised to see them running the quad headlights with the older rear on those Corvettes. And fuel injection. And no seat-belts. My first car with factory seat-belts was a '69 SS Chevelle. Non-retractable, so were a ptia. Can't imagine racing at those speeds and cornering without seat-belts.
