Here you are a 3-point puzzle:
Identify 1 car: 0 points.
Identify 2 cars: 1 point,
Identify 3 cars: 2 points


(One of them is what it seems  ;D )

I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Going for the easy point, that must mean the Porsche RS60 at the rear is what it seems. Maybe . . .

In order to help my fellow puzzlers, I will let you all know that I have been through all results and entry lists that I could find for the period from 1957/59, and there was no car entered as race #201. If indeed this is the US, which I'm fairly sure it is - it could be many tracks, it looks a bit like Elkhart Lake.

The second car (#201) looks a lot like many H-mod cars, but somehow looks a bit too big.

I haven't a clue.........

The leading car is the Torus-Triumph of Oliver Clubine.

I'm not saying any more because it will help the others!  ;D

PS Is the Porsche being driven by Ludwig Heimrath?
