Is that the orange 914-6 GT? If that's the car I'm thinking about, it won
the very first Can-Am race held. "Luke" is special.
Lime Rock is a beautiful track, never ran there but did walk the track once.

I just got back from a day trip to Lime Rock Park,a road racing facility in
Connecticut and thought i'd share an encouraging experience with you all. I
was there for the "Porsche Re-union",which featured a terrific gathering of
both cars and drivers,some 30 year old cars and famous Porsche drivers of
the
past. Long story short,Paul Newman,at like 70 years old, IS cool hand Luke !
He drove a Brumos prepared 914 and would have won in a nice pass on the last
lap but for a 911 that spun out in front of him,which he promptly t-boned at
about 70 mph. He got out,checked on the other driver,then his car,then got a
ride back to the pits,apparently no worse for wear. If this guy can can
compete at his age on a circuit with other drivers,we sure can go in a
straight line by ourselves for a long while,right ?...Bob ,forever young
