John Goodman -- 1980
Ferrari 512 BBLM
Goodman (not the actor) wasn't running
at the finish, but was credited with 20th place in his 5000cc.
car after completing 9 laps.
Note big fogbank blowing in off of Monterey
Bay. It brought an ice-cold wind -- surprising to non-natives for
mid-August.
The reason for this bone-chill is the
famed Monterey Bay
canyon, which drops quickly into the oceanic abyss offshore.
Extremely cold water from the deep canyon and warm summer air from inland
meet, and their collision creates the cold wind and persistent coastal
fog that defines summer on the Monterey Peninsula.
