Oscar Koveleski's Can Am car (the M8B McLaren) was criticized by the SCCA for it's paint scheme, as they had a rule limiting how much body space could be used for advertising.... he told them "it's just racing stripes"




When the SCCA looked at it, they saw a slot car track advertising "Auto World", his hobby store in Scranton PA, with the race car shop in the back.

He replied "That isn't advertising, that's racing stripes" and then he went back to racing.

This is the same guy who was 2nd in the Cannonball Run with the Chevy van loaded with 5 drums of 130 octane  racing gas

And Oscar Koveleski bought the Ferrari from Andy Warhol, tossed in a chevy power train, and beat the NART Team  https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2016/12/andy-warhol-had-one-rare-ferrari-he.html
