"We took it to Riverside the Monday before Laguna Seca," said Hobbs, "and it was a fiasco. "We had the track for the whole day, but -we didn't get there until 3 We ran exactly 12 laps and each one was slower than the previous one. Nothing worked right." Four days later, at Laguna Seca," Hobbs stunned himself and Can -Am watchers by qualifying Friday faster than everyone except Can-Am point leader Peter Revson in the immaculate Team McLaren entry. "Like I said, it was a bloody miracle," Hobbs repeated.

"The crew suddenly found the speed that was there. Even then I was dubious when the race started. We had been so lucky to even get to the race it was all too hard to believe." Hobbs was running a solid fourth, about 12 seconds behind llulme, when he was involved in an accident with' Dave Causey on the 27lh lap of the 90-lap race. Monday the Delta Tire crew will have the car back at Riverside for a day of testing. "The new wing is important for Riverside, so we want to get it right, to try and make the car go faster in a straight line.

At Laguna Seca, where there are so many turns, it wasn't so necessary, but at Riverside, with those long stretches at high speeds, we need more downforce.

Dean Moon of Santa Fe Springs bid SI 1,600 for the whole mess, hauled it back to his Moon Equipment Co. warehouse, took an inventory and found many items, such as brakes, suspension components, uprights, etc. missing. A month later Moon sold the entire package to Terry Godsall, a Canadian industrialist, for S20.000. Godsall is the head of Ti-tusGodsall Racing, the Titus representing the late Jerry Titus, with whom Godsall organized the firm a few years ago.

Last Sunday, less than five weeks after Godsall decided to put the pieces together and with less than 40 miles driving time, the car, known as the Delta Tire-Titanium, was the third-fastest qualifier for the Monterey Can-Am at Laguna Seca. Threat to McLarens Next Sunday, with a new wing, a few more miles of testing and a few more days for development work, the former Auto-coast Ti-22 car should offer a serious threat to Team McLaren's domination of the Can-Am in the 14th annual Times Grand Prix at Riverside International Raceway. "It was a bloody miracle the way those blokes got the car ready to race." said David Hobbs, the English driver who won this year's Continental series for Formula A5000 cars. "When I went home to England on September 9." he contiued, "no work had been done on the car, but when I returned the following week the crew had really got cracking. Every lime we turned around, though, it seemed like something was missing.

Getting the car ready was almost as difficult as building it from ground up." Jackie Oliver drove the Ti-22 in last year's Times Grand Prix at Riverside, finishing second to Denis llulme and recording the fastest lap of 122.318 m.p.h.

"I like it fine, it's a good track, bwt it hasn't been very good to me," said the 32 -year -old driver from the English countryside hamlet of Upper Bodding-ton. His first taste of Riverside came when he drove a Lola 70 in the 1965 Times Grand Prix. He crashed in practice, then lost his clutch on the sixth lap.

Last year his luck was no betterDriving a McLa-' ren for TG Racing in the Times race he failed to start when the car broke down during practice the morning of the race. Twice he has had rides in a Pontiae for the Riverside Trans-Am. In 1969 he blew the engine early in the race and in 1970 he finished eighth. i In this year's Continental Series Hobbs was fastest qualifier and the favorite, but his car broke down on the pace lap and never started. "Apparently it's just not my course," he philosophized.

"Then that fiasco when we were trying to practice just continued the Hobbs drove only' seven of 13 races in the 1909 Continental series and missed winning the championship by one point to Tony Adamowicz.
