    1. I got a close look at an immaculate Lotus 49.
      Vintage '67 or '68 in Team Lotus BRG/yellow livery. 3 liter Cosworth DFV produced 500+ HP was mounted forward of the trans. Car weighs about 1000 lbs.
      Those things are smaller than you might think.
      The cockpit was TINY!

  2. These were real race cars that sounded like race cars, not like a bunch of flatulent geese that is called F1 today..........
