My dad first raced his Datsun in '71, then twice more. He loved talking about it all his life and would have loved seeing this video. Thank you for posting it!

What a bunch of crying sore losers! They cant just say a Datsun beat them but just that the race has changed, im sorry but Ford Escorts just dont tickle my fancy like a good old Datsun 510.
