I had heard that this had started up again after it was effectively banned som eyears ago as an official race and was one of the reasons which prompted the "big three" to pull out of bakcing professional motorsports (due to the number of people dying!)
For those interested there is an article of tne Carrara Pan America in this months AMerican Car World which focuses on the re-run race.
I did have a great article on the original races from the 50s but can't find it now.
Anyway, have a read and imagine all of this happening in the old days on drum brakes, cross ply tyres and no roll cages etc.
Cool, but deadly. My kinda madness.
