Just quoting Jerry Thompson, who raced with and for Don from the mid '60s until Don's death in '87.

There was a magazine article, where Jerry and Don co drove the 83 Camaro and won 3rd place at Lime Rock. Before the race, Jerry’s sponsor IRC had told him that Don looked too old to be a fast driver. After the race, they said Don didn’t look so old standing on the podium.
![]() There was also a picture of Don in driving suit and helmet with his head sticking up through the roof driving a Camaro go-cart painted just like the IRC Camaro. |

Thanks for sharing these. ![]() I especially like that second generation action shot.What year & where was that taken? [/ QUOTE ] Looks like Mid Ohio.The photo of him at the rear of his car on jack stands is definitely Sebring,I would say march of 69 at the twelve hour.He seems to be looking at his watch,calculating how much time he will be in the pits with a rear end problem(note the 68 spoiler) |

The white 69 Camaro picture is Sebring 1970. Yenko/Grossman ZL1 427 Camaro ran in GT class with the Corvettes. They ran a red ZL1 engine 69 Camaro in 1969.

Here's one from a little earlier in his career. Been meaning to post this one for while. The Corvette Hall of Fame induction was good prompting.
