popping in to say that i spent yesterday at a vintage car race!! they had a combined closed wheel/open wheel category and someone entered a 1967 lotus 41 (roughly f3 level) as well as many other beautiful vintage specimens (going back to the 1930s!).

here they are on the formation lap <3

#haven’t been on in a bit but i haven’t forgotten my blog dw #so cool to see an actual 1960s open wheel lotus race in person :)

Jim Clark and the Lotus team, Indianapolis, 1965.

The Lotus 38 was the first rear-engined car to win the Indy 500, and in 1965 Jim became the only driver to win the race and the F1 World Championship in the same year.
