Peter Greenfield led the Group 8 event in his 1935 Alfa Romeo 8C-35.  In the esses he came up to lap Bill Lyon in his 1927 Bugatti T-35B and John Kerr in his 1932 Miller-Scofield/Ford.  The cars were three-wide for a moment, and Greenfield bumped wheels with one of the others.  I couldn't say which.

The big Alfa spun in a blinding cloud of dust and Lyon and Kerr squeaked past, but David Duthu was fast approaching in his 1950 Talbot T26C.

It looked like a dangerous accident was about to happen.  But Greenfield reversed the Alfa the necessary few feet and Duthu dodged to the left, and breath came a little easier.
