Interesting and educational history lesson on the Corvettes first attempt at Le Mans. American old fashion V-8 grunt power did well and of course............ Chevrolet power. I love the comment that the Vette was beating cars three times its price. You got to love it when we were beating them at there own game at a fraction of the cost. Chevy power rules. Cheers. George.

That was very entertaining, just how I recall it and the way I built my basement slot car set too, love that iconic look of auto racing.
