  1. If you have ever driven a street '64 Marauder, a task comparable to docking a cabin cruiser, you can appreciate the size and density of Parnelli's... feet.

    To captain a car of that size, power and handling (see, lack thereof)took incredible skill and courage.

    This pic shows how close to the edge he was literally (and figuratively) for the entire run. Awesome pic of one of my favorite drivers and race cars, ever.
