In no special order, and I'm not a racing fan.  I just enjoy these because of the era that they  represent. (Click on any picture to enlarge it.)

And perhaps the most recognized of all:

And here's a photo from 1911's Indianapolis 500:

I have three of those David, plus the Benz by Cursor and similar Alfas by other makers. I must have well over 1500 racing cars.

Nothing like Harvey's collection, but here is a short story...   I bought the last Hobby Horse Wasp from the Indy 500 Museum gift shop several years ago.  I gave it away as a present to a manufacturer who invites over a 1/43 fan group every year to see his new releases.  I go to his house in the Chicago burbs every year but never buy!  So I felt I needed a small gift.  I don't regret it but I miss that little 1911 Wasp.

 

One of these is not real:

I spotted one of mine in the second photo Karl (besides the Marmon of course).

Very nice selection David. Even if only half, it is still a significant grouping.
