The on-track action was quickly rained out, but there was an amazing array of vintage cars under a row of tents behind the Museum. That kept us busy for a couple hours... :mrgreen:

'93 Penske used by Emerson Fittipaldi in this livery and Tracy in his first partial season with the Mobil 1 livery that was one of the best ever. Chassis was sold to Arciero Racing for '94 (Mark Smith - Craftsman)

Very cool! I've always heard good things about carb day, but have never made it over there for the event. Always good to see your pics.

First time in the IMS museum in the infield is always a good time too.

It's fun to watch. When mechanical grip was king and electronic traction control didn't exist.
