I love oversteer!!! It takes a large set of balls to hang the ass out on the turns in such priceless and irreplaceable cars. I recognize a handful of those cars from past Monterey Historics races at Laguna Seca Raceway from the past decades… yet I don’t recall them being flogged so hard through the turns at Laguna Seca! Great video!
*Lovely video as always, Bozzy. It's great to see these things in their natural environment instead of just parked up at a show somewhere.* As an aside: it always bugs me when people compare eras of motorsport as being harder or easier based on technology or whatever else, like much of the comment section on this video. Both my father and grandfather were race car drivers (no one you ever heard of), so believe me I understand the inherent difficulties and dangers of the "unassisted" eras of racing (my grandfather drove cars with no front brakes, no seat belts, and no cages), but people seem to love dismissing modern drivers as having it so much easier now compared to the equivalent from 40 years ago, as if they themselves could suit up and qualify on the F1 grid tomorrow. Except in certain specific cases, for every "easy" thing about modern racing, there is an equally difficult or complex counterpart that drivers from 50 years ago never had to deal with. These guys in this video sliding through the corners... yes, clearly that takes guts and skill to be consistent and fast. But so does being competitive with any car. Imagine going through the same chicane 170% faster in a car that requires millimeter-perfect inputs because it WON'T slide... it will just go exactly where you point it, whether that's the apex or the tire barrier. Now YOU have to be able to keep up with the car, corner after corner, lap after lap, with absolute focus and concentration, physical fitness, and stamina. If anything, these older cars have a greater "margin of error" built into them because things flex, the tires slide, the cars lean, etc. Sure, you might get yourself into trouble with less grip, but you can also drive your way out of it. Get yourself into trouble in a modern car and chances are it's in the wall before you can have any kind of meaningful reaction. I love the old stuff as much as the next guy, and my favorite race cars of all time are the 1970's SCCA Trans Am monsters and the Group B rocket ships, but in reality, the biggest difference between now and "the good old days" is that drivers today regularly walk away from crashes that regularly killed or maimed in the past. The rest is nostalgia and selective memory.
Oh how entertaining these fourwheel drifts are. Beautiful curves and shapes of these classics and the old David vs Goliath battles on track. Glory days
Modern GT has it's charm don't be like that. You're saying that like it's easy to go more than twice as fast in a car that will react faster than you can while 4 inches off of the next guys bumper. I LOVE older racing cars, but don't just credit the "electronics" for modern drivers skills.
@@digitalcamaro9708To your point - I'd add that F1's problems are likely rooted in excess of downforce more than electronic driving aids. I bet that's why modern GT, V8 supercars, RallyX and many other series are still door banging fun to watch, even with electronic driving aids in various forms.
Id like to personally high five each and every one them for driving and showcasing their skills with their cars instead of keeping them inside a glass box. Wish i couldve been there
Hi Bozzy.🙋 This is a great video, mate! So much action to fill the senses. These old cars (and drivers) really are fun to watch, especially how they skate down the track and through the turns. You know they're letting it all hang out when the doors are flying open.😂 The low track angle you guys videoed from really accentuates how much these cars move around. Your flyby shots are fantastic, too. Sounds like the cars are saying "nnnnnNNNN-Gone!" Thanks to you and the gang on another spectacular performance.👍😎 Have a wonderful weekend, brother!✌
Loved the Corvette and Has let hiking up their inside front tires through the right handers. Had to run a lot of roll stiffness on the rear in those cars back in the day. Am not finished watching as I'm sure the Cortinas and other saloons will probably be doing the same. Nice spots for these vids, great job. Thank you.
To me cars like this are so much more entertaining to watch than modern cars. These cars move around and lean in the corners while most modern cars just look like they are being sped along on invisible rails.
Nice video man, the classics and vintage are the best to me, it was a time when it was truly man and machine. Similar to WW2 with the airplanes. I'm 55 and a little young for tjese cars but they have such a big attraction as compated to the race cars of today which don't do much for me. Do you like Goodwood every year? I love the classic bikes and cars on the timed hill climb, and the classic and vintage races truly up to the riders and drivers.
The world would be a better place if dunlop racing bias plys tyres were mandatory in every category of racing. It just makes everything so much more fun :)
The rear tires on the Cobra Daytona Coupes look way skinnier then what I've usually seen. I always thought they usually were only ever raced on some seriously chunky Rubber,
Fantastic! Lotus Elan, Morgan, Marcos, TVR, Jaguar, E Type, Corvette, Mustang, what's not to like? Although I think there are definitely some ringers in this lot. What are the odds of no less than THREE Daytona Coupes racing here at Imola? Considering they only made 6 (not counting the Willment Coupe) and they're mostly in the USA, I would say very slim. Same goes for the Lightweight E Type. Three in this race but they (genuine ones) are also rarer than hen's teeth. neverthess a great gathering. Shame about the eviscerated noise levels. :(
@@monochan82 oh I was talking about the music, since that song got popular from initial d, and that these classics cars slide into the corner more than actually go into it
We're going to be here for quite a while... AC Cobra Shelby Daytona Coupe (replicas) Jaguar E Type & E Type Lightweights Ferrari 250 GTO/64 recreation Ford Falcon Ford Shelby Mustang Lotus Elan Those were the ones I can recall...
TVR Griffith 400, with a Ford 289 ci V8, same as the ones fitted in the Cobras. Looks pretty cute, sounds like a monster, and goes like a monster as well!
Back in the day you could measure a drivers determination by the amount of flies on his side windows.
Haha, awesome comment!👍😆
haha that's a good one
Always lovely to see classic cars being driven so hard 😍💥💨
Agreed but those things have nearly zero grip,more sliding than clean driving..
Specially Corvette C3:)
Actually that’s how those classic race car are race like that
Always sliding :v
Tony Valdez And the problem isssss?...
@@joe125ful That's true, but that makes up for a good show, it's never boring to watch 😁
Yes!Better than modern cars:)
When the Mini's were still small and the V8's enormous.... What a collection of cars!
Keept it going Bozzy!
PS: I want that blue Stingray.
Ah yes, when the Mini's really were mini

Man its so cool seeing that Ferrari 250 whipping around the corners with those other cars.
It's not the real one.

daedalus_suzuki more youngsters/old heads need yo read this.
Very well said.
Very well said, I completely understand what you're saying
Well said
I'm surprised that Corvette even moves, with the weight of that driver's half-ton brass balls sitting in the floorboard. Absolutely stunning driving.
Slipping and sliding, I love it ❤️❤️❤️
Love the vintage mechanical engine sounds
Me too,carb engines have very raw sound..
My left and right ear lobes are very grateful that you posted this.
Oh how entertaining these fourwheel drifts are. Beautiful curves and shapes of these classics and the old David vs Goliath battles on track. Glory days
I can imagine how the races of the past were more exciting without today's electronic assists...
Its really cool seeing these cars just barely holding on and sliding around the corners. Really looks like it takes a lot of skill and practice to do.

Maaaaaaaan that is truly some real driving, you don't get that with the present cars. Classy, hair raising on the edge
Super underrated video here, they are driving the piss outa those cars!!!
Id like to personally high five each and every one them for driving and showcasing their skills with their cars instead of keeping them inside a glass box. Wish i couldve been there
Such beautiful cars in a beautiful environment. I could watch this all day
More Bozzy Magic, Great Sound & Vision....A Great Selection of Old Cars hanging it out. They all sounded good, thoroughly enjoyable video, Thank You.
4:40 whoops! Forgot the door lock.
*Watching those classic racers go ‘round those corners is almost therapeutic.*

Stunning camerawork... Shows exactly what kind of fun the drivers are having in cars that need driving with brute finesse ! LOL....
I wish I could drive one of those old Aston Martins or Alfa Romeos, I really like the look of them
Fantastic sound and nice racing scene!! Thank you for always wonderfl video!!
This brings back some childhood memories.Thank you for this amazing footage! You're a very talented camera man.

Tremendous! The camera work, sound, and editing makes for a great experience! Thanks!
It can't get any better!
Great job!! This might be the best video on utube!!
Outstanding work. More of this please.
12:49 Amazing powerslide!
That Morgan plus 4 SLR is great!
Spectacular oversteer shots... TOP
That was like a birthday present, a day early... thank you.
Happy birthday
Just Love this channel. A must for any petrol head!

Man I saw all of this at Zandvoort great footage bro
this looks like so much fun
I love how the cars are slipping around the corners :D
Perfect Mediterranean sun...nice day to race!
0:47 Cool,Shelby cobra coupe!!
4:38 ????
Those muscle boats must be really hard to drive:)
4:38 his door opened
That's why I love historic racing
Thx for posting !🤩
Great video, great cars! :)
Cars of my youth. Thanks Bozzy, that E-type Jag...
Sweet, just pure sweetness! B.P.
Very, very beautiful...👍
i love how older race cars drift on all four wheels
What You See : Touring Cars Race 1
What I See : TOCA Racing Games (Include GRID)
😅🙏👍👍👍

that E type lightweight at 3:18 though.. wow
F Jack how about that low drag coupe at 10:08? 😍
Must be heavy noise restrictions on the track...a lot of the v8s all muffeld down...still looks like a blast..
Bozzy! The best DJ

AWESOME!
03:50 THE ROAR OF THE LION!
Amazing vid mate ! Unfortunately all these cars are muffled now, which is a big shame ... 🙁
Savage. I Love it.
I can sleep to this!
Jeexus chraist that Corvette Grand Sport though. Dream car much..
The way these cars just go around a corner, you can see the weight transfer
Così come si guidava una volta.....in derapata 🤩
10:55 When 4 banger grunts
The rear tires on the Cobra Daytona Coupes look way skinnier then what I've usually seen. I always thought they usually were only ever raced on some seriously chunky Rubber,
This is fucking glorious.
qua le fanno davvero ballare!!!
vai col liscio!!
This is how I'm going to spend my lottery win .
¡Qué maravilla!
Lot of American muscle there!
BOZZYYY STOOOOP!!! FERMATI III!!! NON TI SOPPORTO PIUUUU!!!!
0:37 Oh shit a Daytona Coupe, my favorite.
This is great...imagine what a disappointment this spectacle would be if they were electric cars. No sound, no atmosphere.
is a lotus elan a good racecar?

All the Daytona Coupes in the race were all toolroom replicas approved to race in historic racing by the FIA...
More dancing popping and snapping
Secondo
Bel video!!!
Almost looks like Grand Tourismo Replay lol
Is this real. At the first it seems real then five minutes in it looks like gran tourismo but better!
2:15 Isn't that the extremely quick Cobra from Goodwood?
A fair amount of these cars are invited to Goodwood sometimes, yeah. the beautiful green Daytona coupe is there quite often too
Ma di che anno è sto video? Mi pare impossibile che ora ci sia il polline
Not a fan of noise regulations I have to say it kills the sound of these race cars
Is this... S H O W.
More like classic race car "running in the 90s"
Mr KKC actually classic race car like this are around since 60s or 70s so 90s is late :v
@@monochan82 oh I was talking about the music, since that song got popular from initial d, and that these classics cars slide into the corner more than actually go into it
8:59
Ford Shelby....a...head....?
No, apparently there were two races, for the GT cars, and both were won by the Ferrari 250 GTO/64...
HistorX mod for rfactor anyone?
The sound at 2.10 ...
what do these vintage cars do when it comes to using tires? surely they dont produce the same vintage tires anymore.
Probably custom made
They do, more or less, they are bias ply tyres, hence all the slipping!
5:08 what car is that, dark green, no.29
Morgan Plus Four SLR
What Cars are those? plss tell me some of the cars
We're going to be here for quite a while...
AC Cobra
Shelby Daytona Coupe (replicas)
Jaguar E Type & E Type Lightweights
Ferrari 250 GTO/64 recreation

Lotus Elan
Those were the ones I can recall...

Do the divers have more balls or more skill?
Downforce? Nah, leave it off. We'll just drift it around.

#72 TVR Vixen, I had the same question!
