    In the 1966 Orange Bowl 9 hour two brothers from West Palm Beach ran a motor that looked like a prototype of those motors. They won the single engine class.

    Ah yes..........the Golden Meteor..........I think the civilian version was 90HP.........the GT cowling had scallops that paralleled the cylinder banks. That meant the lower pan and mid section die castings were different. You would have thought that OMC engineering leadership would have made them common? It's probably an indicator that there still was "2 camps" at OMC in the 60s. Expensive difference. As a kid, I thought the Golden Meteor was like the Saturn V rocket.......a giant! Twenty years later and the V8 made the Meteor look like a kicker motor.

    The Pittsburgh F1-V8 race 1983 was a lot of fun. Remember fighting with #95 Buck Thornton for many laps but he suddenly disappeared..
    Next fight was Johnnie Sanders, kept him behind me for a long time but Johnnie got me in the last turn.
