Pete Aron:
[voiceover, during the race at Monza]
Well, none of us like Monza very much. It's so damn fast and they run so close together, it requires fantastic concentration and special skills. Slipstreaming, for instance. At speeds reaching 180 miles an hour, a race car's making a big hole in the air. As the car goes through, the air rushes back into the hole and creates a hell of a draft. And that draft's strong enough to pull a following car along at, oh, 10 miles more than his usual speed. If yours is the last car in a bunch, you can get a terrific tow. You can back way off the gas pedal and maintain the same speed. Then you can put your foot down, pull out of the slipstream and maybe overtake two, three cars at once.
Pete Aron:
[voiceover continues]
The only thing to do here is to drive just as fast as you know how, and hope your car doesn't break.
