The Last Lap

The Gentleman Racer has a fascinating article on The Art of the Pit Pass.

"In the golden age of American road racing, the pit pass was more than just a slip of paper or card dangling from a string. It was a backstage pass to a raw, dangerous, wildly romantic motorsport world. Long before digital wristbands and QR codes, pit passes were printed on cardstock, often in bold colors, stamped with serial numbers, and scribbled with the names of drivers, mechanics, or the occasional lucky guest. To wear one was to step into the paddock, where heroes strapped into machines that looked more like sculpture than science, and where the smell of fuel, oil, and ambition hung thick in the air."

To your success on track and off!
