| Jerry Grant
drove ex-factory Ferrari
Testa Rossa #0704,
and later #0768, for Dick Hahn
of Yakima Washington. Though based in the Northwest, Grant often
appeared at California races. |
| He finished 2nd to Chuck
Parsons'
Birdcage at Vacaville on August 20th, 1961.

| 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)
