August 20, 1961 - Dave MacDonald came back to Vaca Valley in his new 00 Corvette.

Dave qualified his Vette for the pole position but to make things interesting, he started from the very back of the 32 car field. He grad-
ually worked his way through the field and on lap 17 he flew by Paul Reinhart to take the lead. Photo Tam McPartland

MacDonald's lead was short lived however as a half lap later his Corvette blew a piston ring. Reinhart retook the lead and went on to
win the Vaca Valley race on 8/20/61. Dave dnf'd. Photo Tam McPartland
