This is Peter Revson chatting with actor James Garner. Garner starred in the film Grand Prix from 1966, and this instilled in him a passion for motor racing. He was involved in a newly established race team called American International Racers (AIR) which ran a variety of vehicles, including Corvettes in GT competition, plus a pair of Lola T70 MkIII coupes in 1968 and '69. He did some driving himself, and was a keen off-road racer. He raced a wild Oldsmobile Cutlass bodied off-roader called the Banshee which was featured on Jay Leno's Garage
