Now Buddy Boy, you HAVE to run @ the pointy end of the pack (Front two rows). I don't know if you guys talk on Pre-Gird, about running together, us Mid-bore group always had a plan (First 6-8 cars) Everyone got to lead a lap, change positions somewhere where the crowd couldn't see us. (Back stretch/ turn 4) I have since found out, our Big-Bore group have done the same thing (Doug Kirk with his "Real" GT-40) told me yes, we also traded places till the last 2-3 laps. It made for some great racing, and the crowd loved it. We always saved just a little for the last laps, and there was some "Hard Racing" but still "Safe". We have crossed the line 4-5 cars abreast; I've come around the last corner in the lead, only to have a gang of 356 Porsche's "Freight train" me before the checkered flag, Damn 356's great FUN!! Cheers Jim, Tom.
