    Looks like Mr Hayes' facility

    Some years ago during the art fair open houses held amongst his buildings, he opened up his collection for public viewing

    Drag race to the next corner at the Glen in 1971 during the Can Am in wich the FIA cars were allowed to race with the Can Am cars. Wich car do you think made it to the corner first?

    The answer is easy if you look up the specs of the cars and realize this is before Porsche started using turbo's. I own the rights to this photo and is in memory of Rich S who took the photo. I should make a poster of this :)

    Another picture from a collection I own. This was taken at the Glen in 1976, just a few races after Niki was almost killed at the Nurburgring. Photo by Rich S.

    A few more old ones... The Lotus was from Laguna Seca in 1997, the Porsche from Daytona 1995, class winner. The Jaguar from IMSA 1990 at Road America and the real old one was taken by Rich S. at Road America in 1969 at the Can Am race. The great Jim Hall and GM research came up with some crazy cars and the 2H was one of them, it even had a Didion rear axle. It was a DNF and the Mclaren's won again.

    More old photos that I took. That last photo is of the Prodrive 550 motor at Sebring. They won their class. The 333SP is at Daytona 1995, and that is the only 333SP still running after 24 hours!!
