| Grant scatters cones as he slides off the wet pavement at Vacaville. This gave the lead in Saturday's qualifying race to eventual winner Dave Ridenour in his Lister-Jaguar. Sunday winner Parsons was slowed by throttle linkage problems in this race. |

| Ed Sauer of Seattle,
WA, sent me this photo from Pacific Raceways. Grant burns rubber
as he accelerates away at the start of a 1960 or 61 event. Next to
him is Lew Florence in a Lotus Mk.15 (?). Behind is Stan Burnett
in his Chevy-powered Burnett Special. (Back to: Ed
Sauer's Photos)
See the ex-Jerry Grant Ferrari #0704 as it looks today! |
