Torrey Pines 2 -- Jerry Austin / Pearce Woods
  
"Jerry Austin's D-Type Jaguar.. There were three (count 'em) D-Type Jags at the January race.  Here's enduro winner Austin going down the front straight after crossing the s/f line, getting lined up for the fast left-hander that was Turn 1.  Behind him is car #46, the "Morgenson Spl." Since both are being followed by an MGA, I must have taken this at Saturday's enduro. The MG was driven by E. Forbes-Robinson, who was to have a long and successful history in SCCA racing."
  
"This remains my favorite Torrey Pines photo. Pearce Woods had won the previous October's enduro in a C-Type Jaguar and he returned in January with a new "D"Jag.  Here it sits in the new car early in the AM, talking with a fan.  I can smell the fog-dampened hay and the spicy aroma of eucalyptus that mixed with the Castrol "R" that the 300SL's were using.  Ou sont les nieges d'antans".
