His stunt double (Hank) was on the set Wed. thru Fri. Jimmy & I drove a 1968 Dodge Dart and Michael drve Jimmy's 1969 Red Vette. We sat around more than drove. We filled up the pit area and on Wed. Jimmy drove as the cars took off to simulate the start of the race. On Thur. I drove & sat while the film crew filmed from the rear. On Fri., they were using special camera cars with the real actors inside for close up shots. Our 78 Vette was still being used at another location with the 2nd unit filming racing scenes being driven by a stunt driver...
