IT HURTS TO LOOK, BUT YOU CAN’T MAKE YOURSELF TURN AWAY
When you drive past an especially bad
traffic accident and just can’t turn
away, you feel a little guilty for your
interest in someone else’s misfortune.
That’s the way we felt when we saw
these photos from the Spa Summer
Classic that was held this past June
24-25-26 at Spa Francorchamps in
Belgium. It was a 3-hour vintage race,
starting at nightfall, for GT and Tour-
ing Cars built prior to 1976. The acci-
dent unfolded right in front of
photographer Dereck Latet. The driv-
ers weren’t hurt but the same couldn’t
be said for the two GT350s, 6S1075
(red #11, Charles Mallard/W.O.S. Luke
from England) and the ‘65 GT350
(white #4, Vananty Dominique/Oliver
DeSiebenthal from Switzerland).
