Is anyone checking this information with known info, ie race results?
The St. Jovite/Mont Tremblant Can-Am was on June 2
8, 1970, and the 11th place finisher was Horst Petermann in a McLaren M1C-Chevy.
The race on the second weekend in July ("11.07.70") was at Watkins Glen and it was run on the 12th. 14th place finisher was Bob Bondurant in a Lola T160-Chevy. The Road Atlanta Can-Am referenced was on Sept. 13 and there was no 14th place finisher if you don't count DNFs.
The Donnybrooke Can-Am was on Sept. 27 ("12.09.70") and the 10th place finisher was Peter Gregg in a Lola T165-Chevy.
If someone was presenting a car to me with this "data". I would be suspicious of the whole dea!!!
