He looks at home.

For just a split second, I thought Ganassi had signed with Lotus to supply engines.

That car has a sweet sound to it, even though it is a F*rd engine in it.

Here is a link to the R&T video site. In the Search field put in Dario Franchitti. You should be able to select the 5:50 minute video.

Imagine some of those mixed in with offies.

*sigh*

[Drive25car]

Those were the days.

[mdkiel]

Jim Clark was my first racing hero and the 500 that he won is the first one that I remember well. The sound of that car gave me chills. Wow, thanks for posting that.

Don't have to. Memories provide that.

[cheeseczar]

Don't have to. Memories provide that.

I know!

It's okay to type Ford. Especially when the subject is the Ford 4-cam engine. What a great sound.

[The JP]

The 4 cam ford is a sound you never forget. I never got to hear the Novi in person but I can still hear them warming up the 4 cam fords in the garage area early in the morning as my Dad and I walked to the Tower Terrace.
