You have to be careful walking around the paddock at vintage race events; they are unbelievably low to the ground, and you'd probably get a stern look, and maybe even a coarse word or two if you accidentally put your size 12 into the front hood of one!
I just can't even imagine 240 mph in the dark in the French countryside in a 917. It makes Luge seem like a safe, sensible sport.
