| Phil Hill
In Manning Post's Ferrari Mondial
Hill worked his way up to
2nd in the Jan. 14, 1956 6-hour enduro and was catching the winning Jerry
Austin/Sherwood Johnston D-Type Jaguar when a rod disintegrated and he
DNF'd.
 |
| "Phil Hill is working hard
in turn 5. This was the 6-hour enduro race on Saturday, Jan 14, 1956 and
he was sharing the drive with Ritchie Ginther. He was actually catching
the Austin D-Jag when he blew the engine. The car is still around and was
at the Coronado race in 1998." |
 |
| "Hill again, exiting turn
6, where now you'll find the number 16 tee of the Torrey's North Course." |
