Great pictures!

I had the pleasure of drooling on the Penske #1 chassis GS last month at Road America. :yesnod:

Great pics. The detail on the GS is superb, I hope it was cooler on the west coast than it was back east!

WOW! Great pictures. The Grand Sports always evoke a lot of emotions, they are just awesome standing still or in motion.
Thanks for sharing the pictures. :cheers:

Here are the last of my picts... I don't think that anything can compare to seeing the two Grand Sports in the Cork Screw.

Viet Nam Vett, thanks for the help!!!

If anyone wants full resolution copies, send me an e-mail.

Check out the shot of the Penske GS engine. You can see where Zora signed the air cleaner (to the right of the wing nut). As far as I know they raced with it like that!!!

It was only last weekend but it seems like a dream now. This was one of those "once in a life time opportunities".

The last time I passed on one of those opportunities was when Metallica played with the SF orchestra. At the time I was saving up for the '58, you have to have priorities :)
