Re: What's Your Dream Car?!!!
Way cool you've been face on w/ both Hill & Hall! . I've been lucky over the years to meet many drivers including Phil Hill but never the inovative Texan. . It sounds like an interesting drive operating the wing-flapper cars and your description makes perfect sense w/ left foot braking and the automatics. . I expect they were running the M40 trans? .
Mosport used to be the greatest. . As a kid I used wake up on weekend mornings to the sounds of the cars running the early practise. . If it was a major event and the cars were loud enough, I'd lay there listening and try to figure where on the track the car was. . After a few guesses it would match....kind've like a puzzle piece fits.
I have a pic here I scanned off the '71 CASC Rule book cover showing the front straight at the Mosport '70 Can-Am event? . Also a scan of a Mo' Carter ad from the inside of the rule book. . I've tried a few times before but can't seem to master the picture thing. . If anyone can do this for me, let me know and I'll email it. .
Sorry on the Gilles blubbering in my last post. . I still miss the guy and the world's just never been quite the same since he split. .
