1997

Over the last few days I've been watching some homemade highlight tapes from the 1997 season. Out of boredom, I captured a few sound bytes...

Cleveland
The announcers didn't really follow Zanardi's rise through the field until he was already in P3!
http://www3.sympatico.ca/gmcadorey/C.../Cleveland.mp3

Vancouver
In my opinion, perhaps the best drive of Zanardi's career.
http://www3.sympatico.ca/gmcadorey/C.../Vancouver.mp3

Detroit
The final lap of PacWest's fateful day.
http://www3.sympatico.ca/gmcadorey/C...97/Detroit.mp3

Zanardi
Just a few clips from his remarkable championship season. Includes an interview explaining his very first donut.
http://www3.sympatico.ca/gmcadorey/C...97/Zanardi.mp3

Tidbits
Odds-and-ends, including Greg Moore's first victory, and that awesome finish at Portland.
http://www3.sympatico.ca/gmcadorey/C...97/Tidbits.mp3

Jerez
Not CART, but an incredible qualifying session followed by a very controversial race. Hakkinen's first win, and Villeneuve's championship.

Enjoy!

Thanks Macdaddy! That's some gold! My fav has to be Detroit, as I had forgotten the race and turned it on at about the spot that clip starts at. Being a new Greg Moore fan at the time, it was amazing!

Thanks, Macdaddy! 97 was an exciting year for CART. I remember back in 97 many of the drivers were complaining about each others racecraft (rough driving....no respect for the other driver), but it did create some great racing.

Thanks for the sound files MacDaddy. Much appreciated. The clip of Moore's first win got me a little misty-eyed too.

Thanks for the kind words, everybody! Knowing that you all got some enjoyment from them makes it all worthwhile. When I get the opportunity, I'll try to compile one specifically about Greg Moore for you. (Too bad I can't capture the video to go with the audio).

jklein6419: Check your PM's.
