See that silvery looking spindle thing to the right of the brake rotor.. I am building 8 of them right now for a German car called a TOJ... a 70,s car.

There is a whack of them cars here in this small town probably about 30  open wheel racecars.. one guy has 10 of his own.. another guy has rent a racers..fly to the track.. car is ready.. just bring Helmet, suit, gloves and the wheelbarrow. They haul and setup the cars. The wheelbarrow holds the money... :o

They have neat stuff in their shops..like 3 or 4 Cosworths..stuff like that...they race at Vegas, Laguna ,a track in Utah.. sometimes in Europe as well..

754,

The Ferraris of '71 were fairly rude machines compared to the Tyrells and BRM's.
Lots of exposed rivets and hand hammering visible--They really looked hand made.
And they couldn't compete with the Tyrells of Stewart and Cevert.
I saw them race that year in Monaco, France as well as Germany.
