Yes The Bucknam car with the ugly pink accents by the headlights. It wasn't the fastest color finishing 3rd behind the winning Mile's Blue car and the black one the FIA claimed was the winner.....

+1  you got that right!

Cobra Ned

Doug, if Grossman smacked this one, I'm not aware of it. And sadly, Carter has been gone long enough now that when he appears in a photo it's a "Oh yeah, I recall that guy" kind of experience.

It's a long time since I browsed the Cobra Registry. I thought I remembered Grossman bending up a comp car? This one I know he had even if was only briefly.

I remember Carter. I remember riding with Ken Eber in his 289 with Carter behind in his Cammer. He decided to wind the thing up and it kind of sounded like a jet plane taking off from behind us. I think that's where my cap got blow off? Probably got sucked into the intake of it? At 8,000 rpm's the carbs get hungry really fast. 8)
