Speaking of LeMans, I finally found a copy of the 1970s Steve
McQueen movie of the same name while at the Glen this
past weekend. A couple of different vendors had it, brand new,
for $15. Ironically, I asked in a used video shop in downtown
Watkins Glen the night before and the owner said he has never
come across a copy. Maybe it has just been released?
I'd rather have it on DVD, but videotape is better than nothing.
Cheers,
Bill Sohl
PS - Does anyone know what happened to the Group 44
Jaguar XJR5 on Sunday? It didn't finish the group H race it
was in. It had earlier finished 3rd overall in the Governor's
Cup Race just after lunch. The car is now owned by George Stauffer
from Wisconsin.
