Thanks for allowing me my fun!
I thought this "Deep South Forum" would be OK, because of the history and connection...
Ok...
A former University of Florida student drove in the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1963 and was teamed up with Dave McDonald. They DNF'd. He was better known in the Good Ole Boy circles,like Hickory, but his driving talents were obviously recognized beyond that. He was the only non-sporty car type I know of to drive a Cobra in a major race.
He was Fireball Roberts
Just a bit of trivia and nostalgia.
