Thats my buddy. Hes 99. Chatted with him today. Keep him in your prayers. Thanks His old neighbor kid.
Wow,9 d-type jags on the grid in 1957!! I love that high tech was a clipboard and stopwatch!!
Awesome footage. this was recommended to me by Lou Brero Jr., a very good friend to me. He tells me stories of all of he and Phil Hill, Mickey Thompson, James Dean, and many others of his contemporaries from the '50s and '60s. The two of you should meet.
I love the Time Machine... Awesome X 1000000 ..BRAVO...!
Thanks! What a phenomenal, entertaining presentation. Got out to the circuit around 92 or 93 when I lived near Sarasota in my early 20s. Can't remember what race was going on. I just remember Old's Achievas getting a rear wheel off the ground in turns and maybe some new Saturns. I much rather had seen these vintage beauties.........hahah
My father raced there in 1955 with Chester Flynn´s 300 Sl, and in 1956 was the copilot of the Osca MT4, but it DNF..
Wow! What a great video! Love these cars and the race, and the film color is great. Thanks!
this was fantastic!!! this coverage is superior to events twenty years later. keep it posted !!
Good coverage of the race /cars / drivers. It seems picture is slightly “stretched”, is there a non wide-screen option choice ? My family moved to Florida from Ohio in 1961 when I was 12 and that’s when I discovered sports cars. I attended the Sebring race each year from 1962 thru 1969 and remain a race fan of IMSA, Indy and F1. Thanks for sharing.
I see you are wearing an appropriate 1956 driving suit, chinos and golf shirt.
Outstanding footage of the '56 Sebring. Thanks so much for your incredible work.
Thanks to Alex Xidias !
