	Sandcastle V.I. - Auto Racing Classics - Dan Gurney: All American Racer / Part 3
		Fittingly, the new team's cars would be called "Eagles." The Grand Prix Eagle had many teething problems, including late delivery of the custom-built Gurney-Weslake V-12 engine.
		Although on an overall basis the Eagle Grand Prix program was not successful, Dan Gurney can justifiably be proud of what he was able to accomplish against the heavily financed factory teams in Europe.
		His victory in the 1967 Belgian Grand Prix still stands as a remarkable achievement considering the small size and limited resources of the All American Racers team at the the time.

		Late season wins at the US Grand Prix and the Mexican Grand Prix took his total to 41 points but not enough to challenge Denis Hulme whose steady run in the championship (only two wins but plenty of placings) bore out the value of the simple and reliable Repco-Brabham.
		By the end of 1967, however, he was still very motivated, confident of taking the Lotus 49 to the next year's championship, and looking forward to the Tasman Cup in January, 1968.
