A Mercedes Benz in Carrera Panamericana colors. There were quite a few cars at the Historics that had paint schemes from this race.

Oh the Allard. Certainly the best sounding car at the races. It had this wonderul low rumble as it went by. The guy driving it was very conservative -- there aren't too many of these around. Cadillac powered (usually).

A pretty little Formula B car. Don't know much more than that about it. Couldn't find any good information on the Internet about it. :(



This little Monoposto car was the stablemate of the little Mk. 23 in the Lotus page. It's Cosworth powered, but I don't know much else about it.

I can at least positively identify this car -- it's a Volvo P1800. Looks Italian, but built like a tank by Englishmen for a Swedish company. Another car I want to own someday.
