I saw them, too. And these, Sebring '63: Graham Hill, Phil Hill, Surtees, Ginther, Mairesse, Rodriguez, Jim Hall, Hap Sharp, Scarfiotti, Innes Ireland, Fireball Roberts, Dan Gurney, Jo Bonnier, etc, etc.

The CanAm series was truly amazing, though. I was only able to see four of those races, but they did include such cars as the Chapparal 2J, Porsche 17/30 and the whacky Shadow. Great stuff.

Oh yeah. The McLarens and the Chaparrals, duking it out on the Laguna Seca circuit --- and don't forget the Lolas.

The great old days.

Shall I assume you are a big fan of the movie - Gran Prix with James Garner?

I love that flick!

Too bad it's not on DVD....
