    The only problem I have with this thread. Is that there are so many videos you put up, there's no way I (or anyone) is going to watch them all. We wouldn't be able to comment on them.

    I wasn't expecting feedback on them, just sharing information and urging fellow users that if they know of more to share them too.

    If there is a particular film or race you want to discuss simply open a new thread.

    Cool documentary SPEED did a few years back about Gurney's victory at Spa in '67. Getting to see David Hobbs drive the Eagle-Weslake at the end was pretty cool too.
