Great photos, Dennis really captured images that made me think of the sense of road and vibration these guys experience in cockpits as tight as a surgeons gloves.

Sure wish that I could be there to see some old “friends”
4 wheel types, that is. Saw some of them in years past at Laguna Seca. I attended the last concours d’ elegance at Amelia Island, in Florida, and seen a few friends there also.

Trent.
Bud Moeller’s helmet is similar to the helmet GV wore in period. If the rest of the drivers wore period correct or near period correct designs the look would be improved. More color, more entertainment. Dennis

Why don’t the owners of these classic open top cars garnish the same helmet designs as the legendary drivers had? That way when fans see the car and driver, the helmet and car go together. I noticed the owner of the williams had probably a similar helmet design to that of the original driver. I guess that is why these guys bought these cars in the first place. It would be weird to see Chris Locke or Duncan Dayton with a Mario Andretti helmet design.
Thanks.

Lovely shots of the old guys. Thank you.

Curious as to whether they were as quick around Sears Point as the IRL cars? Any idea of lap times?
