Vintage Racing At Its Finest ... Gotta Love The Mitty
Legendary Datsun/Nissan race driver John Morton served as the Grand Marshall |
The Mitty is recognized as one of North America’s most
prestigious vintage racing events. Sanctioned by Historic Sportscar Racing
(HSR), The Mitty attracts a diverse lineup of legendary machines from all eras
and brings them back on track just as they raced in their glory years. It’s
like a living, breathing museum of racing history unleashed on the famous Road
Atlanta circuit.
This year's featured marque was Nissan, and legendary
Datsun/Nissan race driver John Morton served as the Grand Marshal.
Below are a few of my favorite photographs from this
year's event:
The fans love the line-up. |
A Corvair without an oil leak ... YAY! |
Working and talking ... |
Classic 240Z. |
He's so cool, y'all! |
Love the logo design. |
This Kennesaw State University car was designed by a girl, y'all! Way to go, Sarah Carter! |
Alex McDowell won the Nissan Feature Race in a 1971 Nissan Skyline GT-R C10. |
In an attempt to "Be-1" with the car, I captured my hat in the image. |
Datsun ... Nissan's father. |
That shirt, though! |
Doc Bundy won Sunday's Group B WeatherTech Spring in this lovely 1964 Lotus. |
Can't have a race without Monster. |
This made me giggle. |
What a beauty! |
Signature racing. |
Porsches! |
Time to say goodbye ... |
... because all good thing must come to an end! |
Thank you Nissan for the VIP treatment!
