Revvie' - 80 Proof



Nah, this Ain't No Drinkin' story...

Thanxs to 'Offical No Fenders Photographer CARPETS' Chiming in, he reminded Mwah that the late Peter Revson, also known as Revvie', I believe. Would have been celebrating his 80th Birthday yesterday, February 27th.

And when I think of 'Ol Revvie', who perished before my introduction to thou world of motor racing. I always think of a long ago movie Tacoma Bureau Chief Mary Ellen recorded for me off the Speed Channel, which I remember being called the Quick and The Dead. With Peter being Hollywood Cool personified behind mirrored sunglasses whilst being interviewed...


And speaking 'O Birthday's, today SuperMario', nee Mario Andretti celebrates his 79th, and presumably raced against 'Ol Revvie. At the very least at Mother Speedway...
