SEPTEMBER 22-23, 1962 - Dave MacDonald came back to Reno for the weekend races at Stead AF Base. MacDonald raced his
00 Vette in both the Saturday & Sunday B-Production races and then drove his familiar Corvette Special in the Modified main Sunday
afternoon. The Corvette Special, originally built by MacDonald, Jim Simpson and Max Balchowsky, was sold to Pat Mathis. Mathis
asked MacDonald to drive it in the Reno modified event on Sunday 9/23/62

Start of the Saturday 9/22/62 B-Production race and Dave MacDonald is side by side with Frank Morril's Jag XKE and just ahead
of Ken Miles and his #50 Ferrari Berlinetta.

MacDonald & Miles begin to pull away from the competition on Saturday.

Eventually however the hard charging Miles would catch and pass MacDonald and go on to victory.

On Sunday MacDonald drove his old Corvette Special in the modified main event but was forced to retire the car because of a rear
suspension problem. In this photo Dave is just ahead of Bill Krause in his Maserati Birdcage and Don Wester in the Porsche. Gone is
the famous #00 on Dave's old Corvette Special. This one-of-a-kind custom beauty has been the subject of an extensive search over
the past 40 years. The last known siting was out behind the Honolulu airport in 1965. Chances are this very valuable car is lost.

went on to win Sunday's modified main event in his Maserati
