It was great the Northwest, the Pacific Ocean, to know that the day’s participants, seasoned and new, as like the Great Lakes, has a got some laps in the dry.

Again this year we saw former RSR President 20 minutes of the entire week’s Pat Jeske making his lengthy morning drive to make sure weather both past and pending.

  • Lella Lombardi March 26, 1943- March 3, 1992 Nationality: Italian Raced Between 1975-1988
    Lella Lombardi March 26, 1943- March 3, 1992 Nationality: Italian Raced between 1975-1988 Origins: Maria Grazia “Lella” Lombardi was born in a small Italian village outside Turin in the midst of World War II. She came from modest means, with her father supporting the family through his work as town butcher. Growing up in rural Italy, Lella did not have much exposure to racing, or even cars, since her family’s fastest means of transportation was a 10-speed bicycle. Little did she know an injury during her teenage-years would lead her to a life of speed and adventure. Early Influences: Lombardi was a competitive and fearless child, excelling at the physically demanding sport of handball. Rumor has it that Lella’s first automobile experience was the result of a handball injury. Anecdotal evidence says Lombardi suffered a broken nose during a heated handball match and had to be driven to the nearest hospital. Instead of being concerned about her injury, Lombardi was awed by her first car ride. Impressed by the auto’s speed and driver’s ability to maneuver the busy streets of her hometown, she dreamed of one day having a car of her own and a racing career. A few years later, Lella finally saved up enough money to afford driving lessons and honed her skills behind the wheel of her boyfriend’s car. After passing her driving test, she bought a second-hand Fiat and began looking for racing opportunities. By coincidence Lombardi was introduced to a race car driver and began working with him, determined to learn all she could about the sport.

  • Vern Schuppan
    Vern Schuppan Born in Australia, Vern Schuppan won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1983 and was part of the Porsche works team until 1988. Full of hope and optimism, Vern Schuppan went to England in 1969 at the age of 26 to become a racing driver. In 1970, he visited the 1,000 kilometre race at Brands Hatch, where he admired the driving skills of Jo Siffert and Pedro Rodriguez in their Porsche 917. ‘Their performance in the rain was very impressive,’ noted Schuppan. ‘I wonder if I will ever drive a 917?’ In 1972, Schuppan joined John Wyer’s Gulf team, but he was already using the Mirage Ford at this point. It was not until 2012 that his great wish came true: as a 69-year-old racing veteran, Schuppan finally had the opportunity to drive a Porsche 917 at the Le Mans Classic. In the early years of his career, Schuppan competed in some Formula One races for smaller teams like BRM, Ensign, Embassy Hill and Surtees. In the United States, he came third in the Indianapolis 500 in 1981. In the same year, Porsche required him to race in Le Mans, where he took 12th place after some engine problems in the Porsche 936. Racing manager Peter Falk was looking for drivers ‘with brains’ for the new Group C and its fuel consumption regulations – men with a consistent and gentle style. Schuppan was one of those up for selection, and in 1982 he finished second at the side of Jochen Mass when the Porsche 956 made its debut at Le Mans.

    Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Miles Collier Collections Page 1 of 203 Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.
