On a track that went uphill in both directions, Paddy O'Moto carried a water pail to victory at this year's Monterey Historics, which are actually held in Salinas.
"I knew this color would be great for the middle-aged amateur photographer who regrets not getting into racing until later in life," said internationally renowned paint stylist Joey Lacascia. "Black and white is so mid-century."
The coffee table book-ready Porsche was never challenged, as motorsport Zeus, Paddy O'Moto, led the high speed parade from flag to flag.
"Dan [Gurney] and Niki [Lauda] got in my grill," said the racing legend who still looks great even without soft lighting. "But what they didn't know was that I took their Moms to the prom in this car."
A mid-race dust-up nearly cost O'Moto his victory.
"Mario got into me coming out of four. I had to pull him over," recounted O'Moto. "Then I realized, it's really hard to upshift when you're punching another legend in the face. I let him go only after he promised me another lasagna."
With this victory, O'Moto becomes the all-time winningest racer ever, surpassing himself in a previous life.
