Thanks for the link, very informative.
Steve McQueen was such a great actor and racer. I was at Sebring in 1970 I think, when he and Peter Revson came close to winning that race in a Porsche 908. Mario Andretti, however, won the race, taking the wheel of another team Ferrari 512 after his car suffered mechanical problems and just edging Steve and Peter out by race end. Probably the best race I've ever watched.
Sad that McQueen's life was cut short by cancer. We'll not see his like again.
