    I don't know that I'd have the guts to whip a $3,000,000+ piece of history around a race track like that. Great video that does a good job capturing just how raw racing is in a V8 roadster.

    Thanks! Took me back to my youth, racing in A Production in the 60s and 70s, first in a 427 Cobra, later an L-88 Corvette. Loved watching it get a little loose in some of the tighter turns, right on the edge. That us what the cars were built for! Too bad you can't feel the g forces in the curves and on acceleration.

    Keeping the cool down lap in the video was a nice touch - just out for a relaxing Sunday drive!

    p.s no wonder all these historics have such low mileage - everyone disconnects the speedo cable.

    • @macmacma
      @macmacma  9 років тому +1

      +kram namwen True, and many race cars didn't have a mileage counter or a speedometer. This car was never a road car.

    The car sounds great. Need to work on throttle controll and remember to keep your thumbs up on the steering wheel!

    car that couldn't beat Ferrari at 150 mph it stopped .. no aerodynamics so the boys designed the coupe cobra and killed ferrari

      Regardless they had the Ferrari's whopped in 64. Until Ferrari got his way with FIA mid season and was allowed to run the mid engine 250LM cars. They didnt even meet class rules. Out right cheating is what saved Ferrari's ass in 64.
