Firmly believe this to be Clark’s best drive (maybe the 23B debut at the Ring too). Who comes from that far back at the pre-chicane Monza? Brilliant.
Great race/video. The music is brutal and who is the
lady they keep showing (not a playmate by any stretch)?
Video is from the Ford Motor film ‘First Time Out’ (I think it was titled) about the ’67 F1 season of Lotus using the then all new DFV Cosworth.
The lady is Betty Hill.
Fantastic stuff.
Hillclimb located east side of Hwy 101, called Philips ranch(owner planned real paved course but found more profit in new tract homes
