Yesterday Motor Racing Photo held a worldwide "Racecar Smart" contest. Allegedly observed by millions of race fans around the globe, contestants were asked to identify the a vintage racing machine by the photo below. The global scope of the contest will surely bring tremendous peer envy and recognition to the winner.
