Three C4-Rs were entered by the Cunningham team for the June 14th running of the 1952 24 hours race. In the dramatic moment shown, the flag has dropped at 4 P.M. and the drivers are running to start their cars. Car #1 was driven by Briggs Cunningham and Bill Spear. Car #2 (C4R-K coupe) was driven by Phil Walters and Duane Carter. John Fitch and George Rice piloted the #3 Cunningham. The #2 and #3 cars suffered valve problems during the race, failing to complete the distance, while the #1 car ended up finishing a credible 4th overall.
