Parting Shot

Vic Elford gets a mixed reception from spectators on the Targa Florio. Elford shared his Porsche 908/03 with Gerard Larrousse, however the pair failed to finish after Elford hit a rock and shattered the suspension. With no Ferraris to cheer that year, the locals instead had to settle for the Alfa Romeo T33/3 driven by Nino Vaccarella and Toine Hezemans, which won. Presumably much to the delight of the local signwriter.
