1960 24hrs of Le Mans Corvette Documentary

In 1960 GM was not officially affiliated with any of the teams, but for the first time Corvette was on the grid and GM commissioned a short documentary. Briggs Cunningham sighting at 9:22. Didn't see Alfred Momo.I wish they'd told the story of why they had that ice available.
For those who address any achievement with a snarky comment, this was via Zora Arkus-Duntov, John Fitch, Alfred Momo and America's greatest gentleman racer, Briggs S. Cunningham. The Corvette finished LeMans first time out, won its class, and did it with a modified production car - no tilted windshields/aluminum bodies/racing TR engines/smaller diameter frame tubes......
