[b]A couple of people also e-mailed me regarding this shot. It is Dan Gurney in the pits at Bridghampton NY,
the eventual winner of the Saturday portion of the double 500km races in Sept of '63.

-

Hansgen in the pits - He was known as "King of the Bridge" but was 3rd today behind Gurney and Miles -
in this Team Cunningham Jag.
He did win Sundays race in a Team Cunningham Cooper-Buick.

Gurney, Holbert (Team Cobra), Hansgen and Miles (Team Cobra) down the hill on the first lap of Saturdays race.

This is Briggs Cunningham taking out the Cooper-Buick to out to warm it up for Walt Hansgen
who was late for Friday qualifying

I was also asked about the b/w shot of the Cobra hauler - I do not know where that shot was taken -
it may have been in France.
Here are a couple more Cobra shots taken at Lake Garnett Raceway (Kansas) on 7-7-63
