I was just reviewing some program info after the 2004 24 hours and was amazed to see that the winning average speed and total distance covered in 1967 (3252.269 miles @ 135.48 mph) has only been bettered 3 times thru 2003. Even the small block car of 1969 has only been bested 9 times thru 2003. No wonder the GT40 has such respect !!
