This Track Day Batch on 2 June 2023 featured a Briggs Cunningham Cadillac Series 61 1950 Le Mans Special.
American, Cunningham planned to race at the 1950 Le Mans 24 Hours with a pair of Cadillac Series 61s. One of the cars would be given an extraordinary experimental aerodynamic body, while the other (where Cunningham hedged his bets) would race as standard. The body they gave the 61 was so different from anything seen before, that the French Scrutineers spent hours examining it on arrival in La Sarthe, refusing to believe that there could be a standard 61 chassis underneath. But standard chassis there was, and the car would be allowed to race, but so hated by the locals was it, that they gave it the name that has stuck to this very day: “Le Monstre”.
