I almost forgot!
We rode on the cinder track for the Little 500 as well.
That was tough! I was trying to sustain 20mph and could barely even attain it!If you don't grow where you're planted, you'll never BLOOM - Will Rogers

Those are great pics, Mr. Silver!
It's so funny you posted this. I had never seen this old movie. The dvd was a gift from someone and I finally got around to watching it about a week ago.
Oh, how my heart broke when the Italians trashed the poor boy on his dream ride. Gheez. I'm such a sap
lol.
It looks like it was great time. Glad you and Silver got to do it.

Did you go to the quarry for a dip? One of my all time favorite movies!

Here's the entrance to the quarry - no permission - no trespassing - the road in the middle.
I'll say that I did not go in...my plans remain subject to the 5th amendment

Would love to do it next year if they go. Shoot me an email should it happen.
Another things about the pair of Mercedes, it looks like you are both parking challenged :-)

It might be worth a trip to Indiana next summer just to do that ride. It looks like great fun. I love that movie.
