It's ironic that Boyle almost didn't enter the winning car. It blew a head gasket as his crew was loading it onto the trailer for the trip South to Pinehurst, but his team of mechanics, led by Roger James of D&D Classic Automobile Restoration, worked through the night to fix the problem. 'We pulled the car out on Tuesday and all of the sudden this big cloud of white steam came rolling out of the tailpipe and then anti-freeze was coming out of the tailpipe and we knew we were in serious trouble,' James said. 'All of our guys desperately wanted this car to come so five of them volunteered to stay overnight and pull it off. What are the odds we had an extra head gasket? But I can tell you I've ordered two more now.' 'I left it up to Roger whether he felt we could go or not. But we got it together, we were here and we won,' Boyle said. Boyle won Best in Show from around 100 cars staged in 12 classes, representing 16 states and Mexico. When asked what he felt the 1928 Isotta Fraschini is worth, Boyle replied: 'I really don't know but I can tell you it's priceless to me.' All four of the Best in Show winners were staged in front of the Carolina Hotel following Boyle's victory in what will forever be known as the Pinehurst Concours Foursome at iconic Pinehurst Resort.
