1969 - Jack Scoville's Datsun 2000s. Jack leads his factory lightweight

This is a rare photo of Jack Scoville's two race cars racing together at Sears Point in 1969. Jack is leading in #61 (sporting a temporary 1600 grille), while following Jack is Dick Roberts, the man who would become Datsun USA's competition manager, in Jack's newly acquired lightweight #6 before it was painted in the team's Triumph yellow soon after.
