My wife often asks me "Why are you so obsessed with cars and auto racing?"
Seriously, I don't know how to answer... Or if I even
should...
The first pic is from October 1974 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
My all-time favorite "car girl" is the middle one. From a tire ad in a 1978 magazine that I just "happened" to borrow from my dad's collection sometime in the early 90's...
Of course, my favorite actress in a racing movie is
Françoise Hardy from “Grand Prix” (1966). She was also known as a very popular and talented singer at the time. Something I only learned recently.
That picture of her standing on the back of the car is just too cute!
My dad remembers someone named Linda Vaughn (below, right), better known as “Miss Hurst” at an event from 1972!
