(API-Several of the world's leading professional sports car drivers began practice laps here today, searching out the short, deceptively curved Laguna Seca track where the $20,000 Pacific Grand Prix will be held this weekend. The drivers include the top three men of this season's inter nal ional road racing Austra lia's Jack Brabham, New Zea land's Bruce McLaren and Cali fornia's Phil Hill. Many of the cars entered in the 200-milc feature Sunday have much smaller engine displace ments than the average, noncom pact family car. But with light bodies, delicate tuning and race track gearing, they can travel as fast as many jets on takeoff. Brabham, England's Stirling Moss and Californian Dan Gurney are given an edge in prerace figuring. Brabham will drive a Cooper Monaco over the 1.9 mile track. Rodger Ward, who won the In-, dianapolis 500 in 1959 and finished second this year, will pilot a Porsche RS 550. In all, 61 professionals have en tered the race. Saturday there will be five amateur races for production and modified sports cars.
