I noticed that too - some things never change!

My father raced there all throught the 60's in his 3 356's and then Formula ford. In one race he took out the gardrail at corner 10 over the bridge and the next race a famous racer went through the hole and crashed breaking his arm... I think it was Derek Bell?
That's really cool! Well, not the bit about the crashes, but the history you've got in your family.

I was wondering if anyone would catch the cloud thing.

Ya, my Dad has an album with pictures of Sterling Moss and other from those days. He had 3 356's back then. Two for the track and one on the street. Then he raced Formula Ford. He is German and hung out with the Germany crowd and is life time friends with Ludwid Heimrath, Bartling, Fritz and all the old school racers. Too bad I don't talk to him anymore or I'd post some pics.
