Sep 27, 2009 - Nurburgring

Sort of an interesting "birthday" today as this marks the 84th anniversary of the beginning of construction of the Nurburgring circuit.

The photo of one of my favorite drivers of all time, Jim Clark, airborne at Nurburgring.

Clark won two F-1 championships, and the 1965 Indy 500 in a rear-engined Lotus, the first time a rear-engined car won at Indy, and no front-engined car has won Indy since then.
