    The 1970ʼs were a classic era in sports car racing. Porsche and Renault were just two of the famous names that competed for glory during this time.
    The Porsche short-tail 917 was one of the newer lightweight vehicles introduced during the early 70ʼs. The main opposition to the Gulf-Porsche team was Ferrari with their 512
    model. Pedro Rodriguez set a new lap record of 3mins, 16.5 seconds, which was nine seconds faster than the current F1 lap record. With an astonishing speed of 257 kms an hour, these were the worldʼs fastest racing cars.

    I was in the pits for many Trans-Am, Can-Am, and a few Endurance races. I saw all of these cars run. Fantastic ! The 917’s never ceased to amaze me. Fun to see this.

    John Wyer was a brilliant operator. Many years ago, I obtained and still have a copy of his book, Motor Racing Management originally published in 1956.. Not just a behind the scenes view at Aston Martin, .but a complete description of how to run a successful Motor Racing team. From the justification for taking part, aims and ambitions and achieving the result. All aspects of running a successful operation.
    Of all management text books I have read in my business career, this is the the least complex and the most informative.

My favorite uncle threw me the keys to his 450SLC Mercedes Coupe when I was 18 years old and said, “Take it for a spin!” I will always be grateful for how he made me feel that day. Complete trust in me and made me feel like I mattered.
    I’m looking into to transitioning from my 370Z Nismo 6MT to a C8; Your video was very helpful. Love the way you spec’d your C8. Color combo is on point. First time I’ve been able to see what Carbon Flash looks like up close. Love the sparkle in the black.

    The late 60s and 70s race cars are the most wicked looking cars of all eras, regardless of racing type. The drag racing cars had the just produced 426 Hemi or Boss 429. The Stock Cars were amazing looking. The Hemi and Boss were originally designed for NASCAR. Indy cars and the LeMans cars were the sexiest ever. The GT40 and Porsche 917 have never been surpassed aesthetically.

    Overall quite enjoyable--especially the Targa footage. Erratic re specs and racing chronology. And, IMO, unforgivable that Rodriquez and Siffert simply vanish from the commentary. Aside from McLaren's accident, no fatalities mentioned. (Siffert killed in F1, but Rodriquez died in a sports car race. I'm principally an F1 fan, but I imagine the 70s were similarly lethal for sports car drivers.)

      Late 60s also lethal... Ken Miles died in GT40 testing.. just testing! Crushing disintegration and fire were big problems resulting from pursuit of lightness. David Piper lost a leg doing stunt crashes for Steve’s movie. Jim Clark died in an F2 car, minor off course excursion into small trees obliterated the car. In the usa, Donny Scogmo was killed cutting a T-70 in half at the pit wall end at Road America in Wisconsin. I love the looks and sounds of the formula and sports cars of this era... fantastic... but not good for survivability like todays composites tubs...

      considering that I spent 8 years doing suspension and chassis engineering on race cars in the 70s before moving on to more fruitful engineering endeavors, I say you assessment of my comment is pure shit. Testing is essential, you have no friggen idea how many hours I spent at skid pads, taking high speed film of suspension in and out of corners.. Non of the teams I worked on killed anyone, or maimed them. If death is your marker of successful limit finding, you sir are absolutely freaking sick.

    "Sports car racing is much more about the car than the driver. In Grand Prix racing, the driver wins the world championship." My, my, my How things have changed. Midfield McLaren makes midseason upgrades and suddenly is running 10 seconds behind the magic Red Bull instead of 30 seconds.

    I simply can't believe that you completely left out the entire saga of the Can Am 917 turbos after they were so unfairly politically squeezed out of endurance racing.

    There's a lot to like here but... 1971 Le Mans is presented with a lot of 1970 footage intermixed including some of Steve McQueen and from the LeMans film.

      Old radio ads for upcoming events at beautiful Road America, featured a very excited, fast talking voice guy, who finished his over-the-top presentation, with a resounding "WITH MEN INSIDE!!! 14:58 is the kind of shit he meant. Oh, yeah.

    I like I think it’s the 88 Mercedes sauber that thing is smoking fast hard to corner though no power steering, I kinda wish they wouldn’t have changed Spa I liked the old layout, that back straight on leman is kinda bumpy to me

    The 60's and especially through the 70's it seems a stretch to call what was built and raced, a sports car. Prototypes, with the technology greater than F1,they arecfar removed from a Porsche 911, MGB or TR6 of the era.
