Sam Weiss -- Cooper Monaco
This is a very sad photo. It was taken at Laguna Seca on June
4, 1960. Sam Weiss (in white sweater) was killed when he crashed
at Turn 4 shortly after this photo was taken. The car is the 2-liter
Cooper Monaco driven to 6th place at the "L.A. Examiner Grand Prix"
at Riverside by Jack
Brabham on April 3, 1960.
The car was later campaigned very successfully in Northern California
by George Grinzewitsch, and
later by Bart Martin
with Chevy power.
