Just scanned back thru this video again.

Just after the 1:20 point, there is a white '66 GTO named "Catnip".

Does anyone here have pics or info on this car ?

Below is a fuzzy enlarged version of a screen shot somebody made from the video. Does anybody have a better pic ? Or, does somebody here have the equipment & ability to make a larger, clear screen shot off the video ? The top of the car looks like it may be red. Not dark enuff to be black. Anybody know this car or driver ?

Found a little more info. It was raced by Sid & Dave Warren, thus had "Warren Bros" on the rear fender. They were sorta connected to Royal Pontiac's racing team, at times, thus the "Royal Pontiac" over the door, & the "GeeTo Tiger" car behind it, in the 2nd pic. Would still like to have better pics & more info on the car's performance.

In pic #3, it appears to be in the staging lanes for the C/S class elims. I assume it was @ Indy '66. Don'r know.
