There's a computer or two in there somewhere. This car's got a rev limiter (and not just a basic "now you have spark, now you don't" type). Vintage GT40 rev limiter was valve float or putting a rod through the block.
Don’t change a thing - this is what us gearheads have wanted for the longest time: great machine, great driver, ability to hear/see/feel what we can through this medium without stupid self promotion or obnoxious music over the entire video. Cheers
The film of the blue GT40 racing into the dark and wet is the first time I've seen an onboard bthat looked like racing in the wet as I know, i.e. great handfuls of lock, cars all over the shop, on off on off.
What a beast. She's dancing on her toes all the time whether under power or brakes, so good to watch as well. You can see what it's like when your following that Red GT40. Off to see what other video's you have cause this was just great.
There is something so majestic about the sound the v8, the blue light shining over the instrument cluster, working the steering wheel as the race track rushes by out side. These GT40's belong out on the track.
"What a car"...I mean It's nearly 60 years old and it looks as if it would beat just about any car today and make the most glorious sound whilst doing it :)
You are an incredible human being. For some of us, this is as close as we can get to things such as this. Thank you Mr Robbert!. Best channel on youtube. Come visit Sri Lanka one day!
Loving it all! For those that don't know, the owner has the original but races a Gelscoe motorsport GT40 recreation at these events, from what I understand. I've seen this race at goodwood, it's absolutely nuts.
He probably also races the original one as well, most likely at more important races where: (a) organizers only admit originals, or (b) the original isn't ready... Looking at the pictures, it's very hard to spot the visual differences between the original and the Gelscoe replica, as they both were painted in the same livery.
@@papa_ptthe owner is Dutch historic racer David Hart. He had a website where there's a list of his racing cars, and it's _going to make your hairs stand on end..._
@@jcgabriel1569 Wtf i just visited his website. Didn't believe a private person would own and be able to afford that many classical cars. Is he a billionaire or something?
@@olafschmidt6512rom what I knew so far, he is indeed very wealthy... You should also search for Carlos Monteverde's car collection, FICA FRIO. That's another collection of cars that still get raced pretty regularly...
I was lucky enough to inspect one of the original GT40 race cars. I was amazed at how small it was and obviously light and fragile. The fellows driving them at 205 mph had to be the bravest of the brave.
omg, knowing that modern F1 cars can take Eau Rouge flat out, and seeing the GT40 have to lift so massively makes me think it must be absolutely terrifying to drive. this man makes up for lack of downforce with giant balls.
Actually, an internal combustion engine is actually an air pump used in reverse. Together with its intake and exhaust systems it is actually more like a wind instrument. That's why certain cars and engines sound a certain way. A mustang always sounds like a mustang, a Corvette always sounds like a Corvette. It's all about the sum total of their parts; how they are built and tuned. A car is a work of art, it's engine a musical instrument.
Just three and a half minutes and I'm left breathless, I cannot begin to imagine being a driver of this incredible machine at Le Mans back in 1966! Well done Enzo for being so arrogant and egotistical because it not only resulted in the GT40 but also Lamborghini cars!
For most curves it felt that it was going out of it, one of the most exhilarating cockpit car laps I have ever seen. The ending shots are pure gold. Also nice that at the end it shows outer angles, during the video I couldn’t help but think that “my cars and driving skills DO NOT turn at all like that” (newbie here, that is). And lo and behold, the slip angle on some turns are delightfully extreme. What a joy to see.
Wow. White Shelby lapped like 3x lol…I appreciated how busy your hands were on the steering wheel. A constant response to the feedback u were getting from the car as you kept it on the most aggressive race line. Pure perfection
Wow talk about an experience. I could even imagine the feeling of a GT-40 on track but it's amazing I can get a bit of the music, thrill and experience through UA-cam. Awesome content, SUBSCRIBED 🇺🇲❤️👌
Spa brings out the best in everything.I always preferred the Ford V8 sound to the Chevrolet imho. After Eau Rouge/ Radillon it sounded like it needed a higher gear.
Ever since forza introduced me to these behemoths I’ve fallen in love. I just love all of the gt40s with a passion, even if they have stopped adding the 40 to em
i cant describe how perfect this camera angle is
I feel like the navigator wearing an adult diaper.
Everything about it is fantastic. Shows the steering inputs. Looks fast. Shows rotations really well. Stunning
@@mikewest712 every racing suit is a diaper
That's what she said
I'm going to try for this camera angle at my next autocross!

Im shocked im the only one to like and reply to you

I don't see why an engine can't also be considered a musical instrument.

Best Background music in any form of racing!!

Yes
Absolutely on the limit all the time :). So different from modern racecars. The driver needs to constantly make corrections to find speed.
Your cinematography skills are absolutely unmatched! Love watching your content over and over again!! Keep this up!! Sending love!!
Watching a GT40 pilot, at work never gets old...And that amazing sound, simply magic!
This is the most perfect on-board racing footage ever

The color correction, sound, camera angle... Everything is perfect!

This is like therapy for the soul
Great to see this magnificent beast on a track in its natural environment singing to its heart content and not locked up in a vault somewhere.
I think these videos are the absolute tops on youtube. Such good quality in terms of both content and recordings.
This guys videos sound like if he put the mic right in the engine, simply beautiful.
Considering the engine is quite literally behind him AND the camera, it’s to be expected
the person who edited this video doesn’t get enough praise. this is such a clean video and beautifully put together.
What a mechanical symphony. Absolute perfection.
I've been sharing your videos like I'm some two-bit Christian spreading the good news. Please keep them coming. You're making art.

This is one of the best sounds I've ever heard. I love that these are still being raced to this day.
Man I'm sharing your videos everywhere, you deserve way more recognition.
Glorious noise 🔥

Best racing cinetography ever. 😊
Agree every aspect of it.
Thank you so much for not talking or playing music over the car’s engine music
This is such an art getting all of this to look and sound right that comes off as so effortless to watch . Thanks for sharing!
this is the most beautiful "raw driving" video I have ever seen... I appreciate the care you put into making the colors and sound so vivid!
This is beautiful. The sound of a GT40 ❤
bruh this video quality is on a whole new level
love love LOVE this category of racing, and the recording for this is quite perfect!

Over 50 years have past since its prime and it is still one of best looking and fastest cars ever made.
This and the Pantera are my 2 all time favs...coming from a Chevy guy. Those 2 cars just cant be topped.
True analog nirvana.
Recently found your channel. You have some of the best, real racing videos. The sound and feel of the cars is felt so hard.
I loved this car from day one. And I'm old and remember it well
I'm just waiting for the day you upload LFA content!
Absolutely amazing cinematography, I NEED to see the full race of this driver
This is so pure, so perfect.
Remember when race cars were beautiful..and the sounds from the exhaust were glorious?
OLD SCHOOL LOVELY
That car is unstable on corner entry and then mid-corner! What a drive!
THIS, this is quality content !
What an absolute handful and input to steer the beast
Fantastic as always!
My friends, I'll tell you... What a crude car! wild! no frills! A real race car, born for the tracks! With each acceleration a smile on his face!
Totally sublime......the Ford GT in any of its formats, Iconic.
One of the best sounding cars out there the Ford GT
Wow. White Shelby lapped like 3x lol…I appreciated how busy your hands were on the steering wheel. A constant response to the feedback u were getting from the car as you kept it on the most aggressive race line. Pure perfection
Beautiful car! Incredible music it makes, too!
This is one of my top 5 favorite engines of all time. The GT40 has a parking spot in my dream garage.
You must be a multimillionaire.
@@justme307 I wish. My dream garage exists only in my head. That's why it's a dream garage.
Same here .Only Id street drive it, only live once. What a rush that would be

That dashboard is a thing of beauty, my word
Well if that doesn't give you chills, check for a pulse! Awesome, just Awesome. 🏁
Just stunning
New Alblas video == good day
Crazy to see how much he fights the wheel in this old beast.
It looks straight out of a movie! It’s beautiful
Now this is a proper V8 sound

Unbelievable ❤
This is art.

You’ve gotta have nerves of steel to wrestle with this much power and unpredictability. Superb driving.
Beautiful! I loved the cameo of the 63 Galaxie as well.
Gets my heart pumping with excitement just watching this.
Also that's a LOT of micro corrections going on there wow lol
one of the best videos on youtube
Great to see people race these old cars.
I have watched this video probably like 5 times already. Something about the video, the audio just makes me come back again and again.
Spa brings out the best in everything.I always preferred the Ford V8 sound to the Chevrolet imho.

Absolutely glorious
This was awesome. It's interesting he's placing his foot on the floor when not using the clutch. Serious G forces.
That was... Amazing.. Great quality! Thank you so much for this video.
Saw an original GT40 in person in Palm Springs about 1991, they are all in museums now.
She needs longer legs for this track! Sounds amazing anyway and incredible cinematography. Thanks for sharing
Wake up, coffee, V8 racey goosebumps 😍
Ever since forza introduced me to these behemoths I’ve fallen in love. I just love all of the gt40s with a passion, even if they have stopped adding the 40 to em
She sound happy to be out there and you look alot more confident in the car from the last video i saw which was sometime ago.
As he catches other cars it seems like he is driving in a parking lot.
What a beauty. Love the color
I just couldn’t imagine driving such an historic and amazing machine 🙌💪💪💪
It’s worth what just a few mil😂
Looks like a handful on braking, very twitchy at the back end.
Great footage!
