  • Gurney was one of the greatest drivers, innovators, thinkers, that America has produced. He remains the only American team owner to win a Formula 1 Grand Prix in his own car, and RACER's Robin Miller took the opportunity to accompany Gurney down the hallway of the All American Racing workshop in Santa Ana, California, and ask him for the stories behind some of the many hundreds of photos on the walls. The result is a six-episode series giving some insight into the genial gentleman -- and gentle man -- who turned All American Racing into a winner on both sides of the Atlantic.
    In this third episode, Dan tells Robin about the danger, but also -- perhaps as a consequence -- the camaraderie that existed between racers in the 1960s. Younger viewers may also be startled by the lack of money floating around the paddocks of that era. Even the greatest drivers were humble, because the label "superstar' was only hung on pop music icons. Like the title of this episode suggests, it truly was a another time.
    Enjoy this third episode of Dan Gurney: All American Racer, produced by Adam Friedman's Vertical Ascent for RACER in the spring of 2014.

    Such a classy man and one of the best automotive engineers ever....not to mention a hell of a driver.

    These are so neat, but so short! Only 1801 views????? That's incredible. Surely the "Gurney for President" fan club has more members still around than that.

      +S Back when it was less money and more work and skill which won races. Drivers knew the cars as they helped work on them, sponsors were great but it didn't cost the economy of a small nation to run one race either.
      Now it's money, in every form of professional sport, little passion, just money,and all the real sport of it is gone.

    The interviewer should shut up and let Dan Gurney speak. Typical inexperienced interviewer--talks too much. Talking over the subject...
