Remember the Hertz car in the pool at the Mark Thomas in \u201961? I first saw him drive the Scarab sports racer in \u201959 at Meadowdale \u2013 the slip angles were breathtaking, spectators backing away from the fence every lap. I\u2019ve never seen anyone do that, and it appeared to be just for kicks. Nonetheless, he kept that car competitive for many years after it was obsolete. Quite a guy. Still driving, still having a hell of a good time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n        .memberful-global-teaser-content p:last-child{\n            -webkit-mask-image: linear-gradient(180deg, #000 0%, transparent);\n            mask-image: linear-gradient(180deg, #000 0%, transparent);\n        }\n    <\/style>\n<div class='memberful-global-marketing-content'>\n<div class=\"a07online-global-marketing-content-wrapper\">\n<h2 class=\"a07online-global-marketing-title\">No Subscription?
