Onboard telemetry is for wimps...



The caption for this photo by "STUUP" reads:

"My Daredevil Grandfather: This is him with Dan Gurney tyre-testing at Goodwood in the Eagle, with my Grandfather sitting astride the engine cover, facing backwards to study deformation of Gurney’s Goodyear tyres in action.

Onboard telemetry is for whimps… "
