Back to the late 70's, the ride along (in a jump-seat) in this 917/30.
Car was in the ownership of Otis Chandler, I won a ride for 20 minutes around Riverside Int'l Raceway...I was hypnotized by that raucous symphony. Over 200+mph down the back straight (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) This was the Talledega record car...which was formerly in the Cam 2 livery for the record run. BTW Otis also owned the Gulf 917 in the pic. |

Watching it run is more fun that hearing it. I got to fallow Marty at the WRC '05.

Watching it run is more fun that hearing it. I got to fallow Marty at the WRC '05. Hey Joe...that was one fun Poker Run up in the Santa Monica hills (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) / (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) The orange 9146/ 3.2L just ahead of me in the canyon was owned by my friend Wilfred (Freds Six) . As you were following our cars...you might have seen me nudging on the orange 914 to get a move on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Wilfred and I have cruised many roads so I couldn't understand his underwhelming speed and lackluster cornering that day...and sooo much distance in front of him to the next car ¿¿ Friends indeed so 'nuff said. He sold his car to the current owner Chuck Null who loves it, and is a good caregiver for this well sorted out hot rod. That WCR was for sure a great meet up at Paramount Ranch !! Hope all is good your way in Fla ! |
