Hi everybody
I have just been reading in some Autosport from 1974, witch I just received. Here I discovered that James Hunt has been driving a Grand Prix Shadow, a DN3, at Laguna Seca. Hunt was standing in for an injured Jean-Pierre Beltoise who was prevented to take part in this PR Race. Jarier won the race but only because he managed to out brake Hunt in a very spectacular four wheel lock-up at the last moment . Jackie Oliver and George Follmer also to part in the race in there’s CAN AM DN4s but was no match to Jarier and Hunt.
Should there be a person out there who happens to know where I will be able to find some photo from the event and can explain why and how James Hunt got the seat for this PR event.
I know that James Hunt was mention regarding a regular Can Am drive for Shadow at the start of the season.
Best Regards
