Pebble
Beach -- 2
More of Bob Norton's great photos from
the April 22, 1956 Pebble Beach meeting. These feature the
under 1500 cc. cars
competing for the "Pebble Beach Cup".

Ernie McAfee in Harry Chapman's OSCA.
He led the race until his distributor
failed and he DNF'd.
|
Pete Lovely in his Porsche powered Cooper,
affectionately called the "Pooper".
Lovely led after Ernie McAfee's DNF,
but throttle linkage problems deprived him of victory.
He finally finished 4th.
