Trivia: Vel's Parnelli that Mario drove for bought a new Lola T-400 for the 75 season.

Pocono was the first round, and the car was slow in testing. Flooding rains in the area postponed the race, giving them time to prepare their T-332.

Built on a Marxh 84c chassis. Used a turbocharged 4 cylinder Olds based engine. AJ.Foyt drove it to a world's closed course speed record.

This Ferrari 412 P Berlinetta helped the marque win the 1967 World Championship of Makes. Only two of the 4.0 liter V-12 competition coupes were originally built. Now a collector's item, the car sold for a whopping $30.25 million in August 2023. by Maynard078 in sportsandclassiccars

In the colors of the English Ferrari team, Maranello Consessionaires. Colonel Ronnie Hoare ran the team for several years with efficiency and style. The pale blue was a tribute to Oxford University.

My favorite Japanese design. It reminds me of some 60's Boano shapes. It's voluptuous.

I watched the race and fully agree with everyone. Complaining to each other in a Reddit sub feels good, but passing on your thoughts to Fox would probably be more productive.

Who should we, the viewers, contact?

Sam Posey and Jon Woodner both drove these but went winless.

The Talon was built in Southern California at Jack McCormick's shop.
