Thanks for sharing that Rex. The Gurney/Parkes story is a classic. Gurney always knew how to take care of equipment.

Thanks Cobrar - very nice video. I always learn a little tidbit from each one. And this was no exception. A lot of first person commentary.

 

[Cobrar]

....... A lot of first person commentary.

I just happened to be on-site the day Mose was interviewed for that piece. Talk about 1st person, I would just love to have the content from the remainder of the interview with him that ended up on the cutting room floor. It spite of all the reference material already out there on the 60's programs, there are books that are yet to be written just from the bits he's shared with me (and other's, I'm sure). But getting Mose to speak up and share some of the stories - in his own words, 'would require a six pack' to get him to past his shyness/modesty. ;-))

I sincerely hope that if there is a Le Mans trip 2.0 in 2017, that Messers. Gurney, Foyt and Nowland can make it over to France.

CobraR, is that not your specialty to draw people out and get them to do things they might not usually do?

 

[Cobrar]

That seems more of an Anders type of trait. :wink

thanks for sharing! Great moment when Gurney stops and waits, only to pass the Ferrari within five laps!!

Simply put, that shit gives me goose bumps.
