My understanding is they filled the super lightweight tubular frame with compressed nitrogen. There was a pressure sensor built into it so that if the frame cracked, it would illuminate a light on the dash.

Love the iconic blue orange Gulf paint scheme. I love racing and LeMans, but found the McQueen movie to be somewhat dull. Perhaps I should watch again.

When the Le Mans movie came out the local Gulf gas station gave away movie posters. I covered an entire wall of my bedroom with them.

A few years after the 917s had run their course Porsche inspired by their track cars released this street version of a Turbo and the whale tail era began.

When I was 12 years old I went to a car show and got to sit in an original Ford GT40, a real race car!
