The driver line-up was as follows: 14437 had Paul Newman, Milt Minter and Elliott Forbes/Robinson. 15685, Ken Starbird's car, had Dick Barbour, John Cannon and Tony Adamowicz. 16407 had Bobby Carradine, Roy Woods and John Morton. Among the crew members was John Morton's dear friend, Sylvia Wilkinson, who was, in her own field, a wonder-woman. I had volunteered to help with timing, but Sylvia said, "don't worry, jut leave it to me". As it turned out, Sylvia was able to maintain a chart on both of our cars (more on that later) and keep tabs on the rest of the field as well. She did this for 24 straight hours, so far as I could tell, never even taking a break for a pit stop! She was absolutely amazing: She could tell which cars were approaching her pit position by the sound of their engines.
