The sad thing is 10 seconds into the film i knew it was at laguna seca race way. 

 

 

Hard to imagine having that much power under your right foot...and in such a lightweight car.

Yep, I guess that's why after the 917 they changed the rules. Watch the 197 Can-Am cars. They're even quicker!!!

In 1969 the cars were far from sorted , especially aerodynamically  : "they look pretty slippery , that should work" approach. The drivers were sh*t scared of them. It took the bug splatter observation to sort that minor issue out but not before several pairs of fireproof undies were soiled.

 

The Can-Am ones were certainly quicker but for some reason not as stylish. 

 

Because I like my underwear clean , I'd be happy with a 917 chassis and a 3L AC engine. Turboed or not,  it would be a hoot.

Until you hit a wallaby. World's biggest bugs.
