The picture was taken in 1970 on the new Black Tornado,former one of the The Cigarette.
The fuel injections came in 1971 with the engines prepared from the Indy wizard Andy Granatelli for the Blondes of Roger Hanks and in Europe with Lucas systems in the Lady Nara of Ronny Bonelli of the Italian team Firebird.

Re: Aronow's The Cigarette Pic's
Look closely at the photo....there was only one set of throttles....the position of throttleman didn't begin until Bobby Moore started doing the throttles for Bill Wishnick, which was after Don had retired.
Don's hand is on the throttles as seen in this photo.
