Second place in 72 was taken by Spalding & Percival in a Merc powered Molinari. I remember making my way through the pits after the race and I just happened to come upon Bob & Tom and their wives. They were kind of huddled together and were talking quietly. They quit talking when I arrived, but I had heard just enough to know what they were discussing ….. protesting the race results! After several minutes of back and forth conversation, they decided not to challenge the results.
