Al Unser Sr and Danny Ongais on the Saturday of the August 5, 1979, Kent Oil 150 CART Series race. They were initially watching a practice session at the 90 degree first turn of the Watkins Glen International racecourse. Two boys on their bikes were having a big time hanging out with the two drivers when the blonde showed up, leaving the boys to learn a lesson in life. The older boy on the Team Murray bike seems to have a similar mindset with Danny Ongais. Al Unser won the pole for the race and finished fifth, Ongais finished fourth after starting third.
