Wow I love the look of these images! The colour and texture make them look like they came straight from the 1970s! I'm assuming these are stills from super 8 footage? Trojan Horse' is a cool name for a racing car.

Ughh cropping. Ive posted some photos (for the first time) in my post about the exhibition and one of them is cropped. The horizontal one. The vertical image is fine. Perhaps there's always a danger of this happening with horizontal format images.

If you open the source http://www.outriggercanoe.com/mypics/snakeII_1.jpg you can see all of it, so yes it sucks that the forum crops it.

I am sitting on 40 minutes in total of 1972 SpringNationals in Columbus, Ohio, another race at the 131 Dragway in Martin, MI, and the Nationals at Indianapolis. I got stuff of Don Prodhomme actually working on his own car...very very cool. Lots of Garlits too.
