14:15 for the Galaxie, 25:05 for a Mustang, 30:50 for a Mustang GT.

At the beginning, old open wheel, no roll bar race cars. Geez, the drivers must have brass balls to drive these things!

Wow, that is cool stuff!  To watch those older gentlemen wheel those very antique open wheel cars that fast on a narrow course!

It's like the older, lighter, slower cars have an advantage.  The big boys in the F1 cars can't get ahold of the track, so they don't run that much faster.
