Ad for 1963 U.S. Grand Prix

The 1963 Grand Prix of the United States

 

held at Watkins Glen, NY.

 

Won by Graham Hill.

 

Found an ad while paging through one of our old Trenton Speedway Programs.

 

It shows a picture of the 1962 winner Jim Clark.

 

 

Since running the last U.S. Grand Prix at Watkins Glen in 1980,

the Grand Prix has moved from Phoenix to Indianapolis

to Austin, TX where

Lewis Hamilton won the 2014 U. S. Grand Prix.

Throwback Thursday

 

 

For this weeks Throwback Thursday we dug up an old 1963 Milwaukee Mile program

for this photo of Dan Gurney and Jimmy Clark, two Indycar legends.

 

Mr. Gurney celebrated his 83rd birthday Sunday at the Long Beach Grand Prix. 

 He was instrumental in first bringing racing to that city in 1975.
