I have a picture somewhere that I had published in 1969, I think, taken at Sonoma in California on the Trans-Am circuit.

It was interesting, Mark Donohue, the late driver is there in the shot along with a couple of mechanics and Penske is examining a sparkplug just pulled after a run.

He’s peering at it through a loupe with an obvious scrutiny that spoke volumes about his attention to detail that allowed his team to win in both Camaros and later, in AMC Javelins.
