I went down to the Historics today to have a look around. There were no open wheel cars this year - butplenty of sportcars. Many, many Chevrons, mainly B19s but a great array of FIA GTs, including 6 GT40s running, a 904 and two 906s.
There was an IMSA group with half a dozen 935s and a single 914. This was running against the 935s so it was somewhat outclassed with a mere 2.4 engine. It was the Altec Lansing car. It last ran in 1979 in Cerwin Wega! colors. It has been stored ever since and hasn't been restored. Attached image(s) |

I went down with Martin Baker and we had a blast. Talked for a few minutes with the owner of the Altec Lansing car and took many pictures of it in action. Met Brian Redman just sitting on a golf cart and shook hands with him. He had no one around him as if they didn't know who he was. Also took his picture. Also took Jim Hall's picture. He most definately had drawn a crowd probably related to the heavy Chapparel attendance...
