Here in Australia there are companies like Rare Spares that do nothing else but make modern retro spare parts, if you get my meaning, to keep classic cars like these running. It's a whole cottage industry these days. Engines may be of varying levels of originality; Dick Johnson's 1984 Falcon, for example, is a time capsule that has never been touched since the day it finished its last race - even the oil stains are authentic. For a lot of cars, though, they're only "the car" in the sense that it's the original bodyshell and they've been re-created to some specific era or race. Some might even be replicas.
3:57 Looks like the Ferrari Breadvan.
6:45 is an Arrows A10, an F1 car from 1987. Engine was the BMW turbo that famously produced so much power the dyno couldn't measure it, rebuilt for the team by Megatron. Unfortunatey by 1987 pop-off valves had arrived, so the engine's only real advantage was gone.
7:54 is a Tyrrell 012, another F1 car from 1983. Stuck with a Cosworth V8, just about the only non-turbo engine on the grid by that point, they tried to make the car super-light to compete. They got caught cheating in 1984, but that's a long and rather sordid story.
8:20 Looks like an Aussie S5000 car, a modern reboot of classic Formula 5000 from the 1970s, powered by a 5-litre Ford Coyote V8. Good cars, fun to watch, they usually pair up with TCR events here in Straya. Might be wrong though, it could be a Formula 2 car or something.
8:58 is an Embassy Hill, a mid-1970s F1 car from the great Graham Hill's own team. It does sound awesome, Cosworth DFVs always do!
10:44 Looks like a Maserati 4CLT, the F1 ride of choice for the amateur enthusiast in the early 1950s.
11:05 Is some sort of Indy roadster, early 1960s.
11:38 Is an Alfa Romeo 155 touring car from what looks like the 1995 BTCC.
12:55 Is another BTCC car, a Renault Laguna from the late 90's.
13:04 Is a Rover SD1 from around 1984.
14:20 Is a Lotus 77, I think, from 1976 - just before the team brought in ground effects and changed the game forever.
14:44 Ah yes, the famous Tyrrell P34 from 1976 and '77. The idea was to remove the drag of big front wheels rotating in the airflow, then make up for the lost front-end grip by having more wheels. It worked to a degree, as the lost drag was calculated to be worth an extra 40hp from their DFV engine, and they won a race (the '76 Swedish GP at Anderstorp, if memory serves). But performance fell off as Goodyear stopped bothering to develop the special front tyres, and eventually they just gave up and went back to a normal layout.
15:14 Lotus 49 from 1968. The first F1 car to carry commercial sponsorship. Jim Clark died early in the year so Graham Hill carried the team, ultimately winning the championship at the final round (I told you a DFV always sounds amazing!).
Lots right but
Red car at 11:00 is a 1954 Kurtis Kraft Offenhauser Indy car. Did a good time for a two speed gearbox.
Incredible comment. Loss for words… thank you for this. Pinned your comment 🙌😎
I thought s5000 was Holden/GM 5litre v8 based, since it was a revision of formula holden
@@johnd8892 Ahh, thankyou for that, I did wonder.
@@dylanzrim3635 No, sorry, it's a Ford crate V8 these days. Back in the 1970s the Repco V8 was a popular choice for Formula 5000, and that was based on the Holden V8, but that was about 15 years before Formula Holden was thought of.
Fun fact: the track is a driveway. No exaggeration, it's Lord March's driveway. He hosts the whole festival in his front yard. Rad dude, right? :D You can see his house just after turn 2.
This is like our driveway, one day bmw comes sideways, other motocross bikes, other woodtruck, other horsegirls 😂
3:26 The new Aston Martin Valkyrie, it has a 6.5L V12 built by Cosworth
8:06 this is a Praga R1, it’s what sim-racing youtuber Jimmy Broadbent now races
9:02 this is a new Le Mans Hypercar the Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus (SCG) 007. It’s made by an American team based in Sleepy Hollow, New York though these racing cars will be built by in Italy by Dallara. They also make road car versions of their race cars.
13:16 correct it is a McLaren, a McLaren 720 GTX to be exact. It’s basically a GT3 race car that they’ve modified to be even faster
13:30 another SCG, this one is a road car, the 004S. Comes with 3 choices of engine. A GM 5.0L LT4 twin turbo V8, a GM 6.2L Supercharged LT5 V8 or a Nissan 3.8L twin turbo VR38DETT V6. No electric powertrain available
15:50 this is a development car, it’s being used to develop hydrogen powered cars for racing, the chassis is a modified LMP3. The project is called ‘Mission H24’ and they hope to race a hydrogen powered car in the Le Mans 24 hour in 2024. They also have another car newer than this that uses an LMP2 chassis.
Noice
9:28 it's the Alan Mann Lotus Cortina mk2
Praga R1 is a fun to race in Assetto Corsa. Its like if a miata was a supercar.
@@grandmarquee super fun to drive as well in real life. It's basically like a mini LMP car.
A lot of these car's are just retired from track duty's and are original.
Uhmmm... I don't see why they should not be original...🤔😅
@@lowrangemaniac5326 the old one's are restored to original spec it still gives them a life racing if you modernise them it decreases there value
@@lowrangemaniac5326 there wouldn't be to many of them that aren't original then they go back on display in a Museum or a climate controlled garage so they stay in pristine condition
@@lowrangemaniac5326 Ask yourself "what is original?" before you answer the question ponder the problem known as the Ship of Theseus.
@@whyjnot420 I know that my question was stupid... It's because I thought that some cars could be replicas of the original ones, instead of original old cars that was restored with new pieces
14:49 This is the Tyrrell P34 F1 Car from 1976. The Tyrrell P34 F1 car had six wheels primarily to improve aerodynamic efficiency and increase grip. By using smaller front wheels, it reduced drag and improved airflow to the rear wing. Additionally, the four front wheels increased the contact patch with the track, providing more traction and better cornering grip. However, the design proved to be complex and difficult to optimize, leading to its eventual abandonment in favor of traditional four-wheel setups.
8:48 is the easiest one of the lot, the most distinctive helmet in F1, 1996 F1 World Champion Damon Hill driving one of his late father Graham's Embassy-Hill cars from the early 1970s.
4:02 is a Fiat S76 from 1910. They had a 28 litre (not a typo) 4 cylinder engine producing around 300hp. 15:01 is a Tyrrell P34 F1 car from the 1970s
I'm awe struck every time I see it! What a beast.
Beast of Turin?
@@goannaj3243 Yep! I know I'm late to the party but that is it's name. Two were built to beat the World land speed record. It achieved it at 110 MPH! It did manage 137 MPH but couldn't do the return trip to make it an official World Land Speed record.
Then some Alfa Romeo like the tz2 codatronca (something like “cutted-tail” the literal translation) but that fiat, also called Mefistofele, was crazy for those times! I love that somebody else knows about this!!
@@goannaj3243 Yep, certainly is.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_S76_Record
15:37 - mcmurtry spéirling, super machine bending the laws of physics
The Old car at about 4:10 minutes in is the 1910 FIAT S76, ‘The Beast of Turin’. A four cylinder, 28.3 litre, (1730 cubic inch), monster capable of 132mph.
So he was right when he said its gotta be 100 years old xd
8:50 Imagine the goosebumps, Damon Hill driving his father´s team prototype.
16:29 was a Hillman Imp. Think Corvair that shrunk in the wash. Engine at the back too. The difference is Imps really handled well and the engine was very advanced for the early 60s Alloy block & head, OHC, steel crank and good for 7000rpm which was just as well with only 875cc to play with. A full race one taken out to 998cc might make 110 bhp or more at 9000rpm
You're enthusiasm about car's is infectious, you are re-ignighting life into me, and making me want to watch more old rally programs like the circuit of Ireland.
Having been to the show about 10 times I can say that about 95% of these classics are fully original and preserved specifically for these events. However a very select few have had newer parts fitted
Would like to know what happens to the ones that have an unscheduled meeting with the barrier. Especially with historical racing events.
Rebuilt every year.
The car that lost the wheel at 4:17, AKU 991 is a 1935 Aston Martin Ulster. 1.5 litre sports car made before tractor manufacturer David Brown rescued the company after WW2. Where the DB models came from.
In 2011 Indianapolis speedway sent some of its original 100 year old bricks to Lord March and they now are a permanent marker for the start line of The Festival of speed.
3:26 the Angry green car is an Aston Martin
The tall old red car is Fiat’s “Beast of Turin” S76 300HP The culprit is a four-cylinder engine that has a displacement of 28.5-liters, (1739.17 cubic inches)which developed around 300 HP, at just 1.900 rpm.
6:15 Rover SD1
9:20 MK 2 Lotus Cortina
10:50 ERA
14:15 F1 John Player Special J.P.S. Lotus 72D
14:30 1976 F1 Tyrell P34 6 wheeler
15:36{the little thing} Aussie racing car series (basically a Go kart with a scaled down saloon body)www.google.com/url?q=en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aussie_Racing_Cars&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwjWoq_H4MD3AhVCgOYKHTRXCUIQFnoECAEQAg&usg=AOvVaw3VrQh1R0BgUdlLZm7X7ZJe
16:15 Hillman imp
14:15 definitely not 72D, i think it's a lotus 77
@@imi0505 👍thx
@@imi0505 Yeah, the 72D has a large airbox.
That 15:36 is the McMurtry Speirling, British electric hypercar with fans creating vacuum under the car, just like Chaparral 2j in 1970s. It's extremely fast at corners and accelerates from 0-60 mph in 1.4s.
The very old tall skinny fire-breathing open wheel race car near the beginning is a FIAT S76 racer from 1911. Nicknamed the "Beast of Turin", it has a 28.4 liter 4 cylinder engine. It was lovingly restored over many years and began 'racing' in vintage events a few years ago. And you thought FIAT only built tiny engined cars. :) You asked about rebuilding old race cars to new. Formula, prototype, NASCAR, and Indy cars, like AA fuel and Funny Car dragsters, are rebuilt entirely after each race. Vintage race cars are generally rebuilt after a season of racing, unless they require attention more often. Most classes of serious racers must meet safety requirements; fuel cells, roll bars, racing harnesses, etc. Some old vintage race car classes do not require safety ungrades and may run as built in days of yore.
The corvette at 15:22 is a special corvette made by arrows if i'm correct for Sam Schmidt a quadriplegic. (He crashed in januari 2000 testing for the next indy car season) he steers with his eyes and use the brakes and gas with pipes he blows in (I heard the commentators talk about it during the live stream)
The final Jaguar F-Pace was bee driven by Terry Grant. He's a master of car stuntwork. He actually drove the entire length of the hill climb on 2 wheels in a Range Rover
At 10:35 ish That is a Cheetah, they were built by Bill Thomas. The engines ranged from 327 small block Chevys, to 427 BBC/ dual quads. The Driver/Pilot sat over the rear axle.
The Goodwood events are great. Goodwood also provide a huge amount of coverage where they explain more about the cars running and the times they set against each other. Always learning something new from the coverage.
Earliest this year may be the 1903 Mercedes race car being pushed hard. So near 120 years old.
Duke of Richmond's driveway. Wikipedia has some of the amazing story of the Duke or Lord March.
Gold and blue car was a Praga. Orange car was a rover SD1, the Alfa and Renault were BTCC cars from the 90s. The 6 wheel F1 car was a Tyrrell P34 which was banned. Short squat car was a Hillman Imp. The small batmobile was the McMurtry fan car.
A lot of cars are original however overhaulled engine, gearboxes and brakes but to original spec. (As a lot continue to race in certain series)
You wanna watch the hillclimb competition from Sunday 2022...the winner was a McMurtry electric fan car and was mental!
Also check out the Goodwood revival seeing these cars race side by side!
That tiny black batmobile is a McMurtry electric fan car. At standstill, it creates 2000 lbs of downforce, just with the fan. 1000 kg of weight, 1000 horsepower. This year it broke the Goodwood hillclimb record, it's the fastest thing they've ever had there.
The car starting at 9:18 Are a 69-70 Ford Cortina. Mk2. They basically had the same engines as the Ford Escorts. Mk1-Mk2.
So they were easy to tune. And get great amount of effect from.
I think it's a Ford Cortina Lotus....so Ford Kent bottom end with Lotus twin cam head ?
5 of us squaddies went grape picking in a Mk 3 in the Mosel valley in Germany through the British army in 74/75, still got the hangover.
Looks like a ascona too...
Definitely on the bucket list to go there
The Mini Cooper S was a race car at Bathurst (In 1966, the mighty Mini Cooper S won Bathurst and filled the top nine places, a feat that remains unbeaten in 40 years. And since 1966, no naturally-aspirated four-cylinder vehicle has ever won the Great Race either)
Now 54 years unbeaten. Although for the last 25 or so years only V8 s allowed.
8:10
That’s a Praga. Jimmy broadbent (a summer racing TH-camr) is now a driver for them in britcar
Car at 9:17 is the British Ford Lotus Cortina mk 2 from 1966 to 1970. Double overhead cam Lotus head used so still fast today.
In Australia the more basic earlier GT and GT 500 Cortinas with pushrod engines won the first three Bathurst 500 events in 1963 64 and 65. Australian built first race specials Beating V8 Studebaker and Dodge Phoenix cars with crap brakes and high fuel consumption needing many pit stops.
Even the EH Holden six cylinder cars lost out to the Ford Cortinas.
Took the bigger engined Morris mini Cooper S to beat them in 1966 once the race special GT500 big fuel tank race special Cortinas were banned and the minis had their problems sorted out. The Cooper S then took the first nine places in 1966. The small blue car was the later Clubman version of the Mini. Nothing to do with the recent BMW mini, just using a highly regarded name.
Great video! Loved your comments and enthusiasm. I've been to this event every year for 25 years. You have to go one day. Meeting the mechanics that spannered the cars when they competed is great with all their stories. I've met so many of my hero drivers over the years too and many of the cars that appear you will never see anywhere else. Keep up the good work!
Hey there, @IWrocker, About the 6 wheel, 6x2 F1 specimen on timestamp: 14:34 - 14:51 - this is a true F1 car, before the limitations of FIA. An excellent Turbo Era specimen. The 4 smaller wheels in the front provide better stability of the front end, by spreading the forces between 4 wheels instead of two, allows the front to take more aggressive driving without losing its balance. Cheers dude.
It also significantly reduced drag :)
Goodwood FOS is an amazing event. The variety of vehicles is astounding and to see and hear them in motion is just fantastic.
Well said, I’m definitely gonna be watching more coverage of this in my spare time haha
@@IWrocker Yeah, I've been watching the streams here and there. Kudos to the owners of the more expensive and rare cars who are willing to thrash them around for our enjoyment. It's on my bucket list, just edging out route 66 on an Indian, and just behind watching Scott McLaughlin win at Indianapolis.
If you guys are in to classic car racing too, they have another event at Goodwood called the Revival. They group cars into categories and go racing around the track there. Think 1950's F1, 1970's saloon car racing, old bikes, minis, le mans cars, etc. Everyone dresses up in period too, so it's like stepping back in time
Goodwood is an amazing festival, been a couple times. You're right that this is just a slither of the attractions, they have all kinds of stuff going on. There's even a rally section where you can go and watch all eras of rally cars powering through a mini rally route. Then you can go into the paddocks and watch them working on any car you can imagine.
You should check out the Leadfoot Festival. It's New Zealands version of the Goodwood FOS.
Sounds awesome thank you I will check it out!
Leadfoot is the driveway of Pikes Peak racer Rod Millen.
Loving the content lately bro keep it up forsure!
Hey IWrocker , Not long found your channel and love the content.. As a Brit this one made me smile a bit more than some others , Love your style and vids .. Keep it going brother ! ! 🙂
You have a much better knowledge of cars from around the globe than you give yourself credit for. Top job!!
At 13:00 , yes a Rover. Made lots of sedans for mainly right hand drive markets.
The big success for left hand drive markets was the Range Rover and Land Rovers. Likely the first SUV that now infest our roads pressuring cars out of existence.
Red car at 11:00 is a 1954 Kurtis Kraft Offenhauser Indy car. Did a good time for a two speed gearbox.
I've actually worked some of these shows. The event is 4 odd days long!! A lot of retired drivers take part in FOS races (and revival races), loads of rare supercars are showcased as well (though not all of them are driven). most of the classic cars ARE originals as far as possible, many are from people's personal collections (often old team managers or retired racers own a number of vintage origanls - you see more of them at Goodwoods Revival festival), it means a lot of them play up on the start line because they aren't good at idling and end up overheating ( you can see it in the back of the shots how many white overalls are running around)
If you have any interest in motorsport history then the Goodwood Festival Of Speed is a must. The range of cars (and drivers) is amazing, and you can wander round the paddock and get really close to the cars. OK, they don't all race up the hill, some just demo, but they're still great to see. What you didn't see in this video is the flint wall, a massive wall the cars have to shimmie round at full speed partway up the hill!
Check out also the Goodwood Revival meeting where the historics race around the Goodwood circuit rather than going up the hill.
Damn I love your reactions to the crazy stuff..
I went to something similar here in Australia. It was a couple of years ago and it was called Speed Week and it was at Murwillumbah in NSW. I had the most awesome time.
The cars - and often engines - are usually original and just incredibly well-kept. Goodwood FOS hosts the hillclimb track (which is the organizers literal private driveway) and it also hosts tons of classic racing events, e.g. the Members' Meeting, at the dedicated Goodwood Circuit (A track from the 50s I believe, that hasn't ever really seen any modifications besides a chicane being added & is still FIA Grade 3 certified for those events, but hosted F1 back in the day). The Goodwood track is also still used for testing sessions sometimes. It sadly is the place where Bruce McLaren, founder of McLaren, died in a crash, as he was testing a Can Am car that went on to win the championship. The rear bodywork came lose and he had a sudden loss of downforce at high speeds on the back straight and swerved into a marshal's bunker just before the final corner.
Good wood circuit, like Silverstone, is a WW2 airfield's outer road. It's basically mor like classic silverstone before and infields or new sections were added: A narrow, high-speed circuit with little runoff areas and hard to navigate turns... Or more so, unbanked kinks.
The "WTF was that" car was a McMurtry Speirling (irish boutique hyper/racing car manufacturer) - this exact thing has the record for the Goodwood Hillclimb. It uses a rear exhaust fan and venturi tunnels.to suck itself to the ground and creat upwards of 2.5 metric tons of downforce in standstill. It's also all-electric, so it has basically instant torque off the line.
I had quite a few of these older, classic cars. Including the 6 wheeler. Yep. I owned every one of them. Of course, I was a kid, and they were scalextric (slot cars), haha!
10:26 - 10:42 That's a Chevy Cheetah. It was an American sports car designed and engineered entirely with American components, and built between 1963 and 1966 by Chevy performance tuner, Bill Thomas. It was designed to be Cobra killer, but the rules have changed, and the Cheetah never raced again. Under the hood, is a 327 cu in Small-Block V8 engine from the C2 Corvette.
The Rover was an SD1 and the Mini was a 1275 GT with the Clubman body shell.
4:44 it's a old f1 from the time that Sena still drove
That specific festival must be awesome. To be there and see all legends from all classes and all time pass by must be legend. Someday I will be there.
The older looking open-wheelers are F1, including the 6-wheel Tyrrell, which was banned after only 1 race (which it won).
This event is like an exhibit for different race cars and its so awesome.
Really would like to see that race. To here, to see and to smell the amazing cars from different decades! WOW!
Excellent watch along dude!
Thank you for being here!!!
Check out the "Nürburgring 24h", it's an infamous endurance-race on the Nürburgring and the attached famous "Nordschleife".
24h with everything from (barely) converted roadcars to GT3 race cars, GIANT starting field, and a ton of mixed weather.
Those 50's 60's race cars are genuine. rebuilt a lot - like a 100 year old broom, it's had 10 new heads and 20 new sticks but it's the same broom :-)
4:45 Notice how the wheels are mounted. There are no screws attaching the rim to the hub, as there are now. These are centrally bolted wheels with one large central nut in the middle of the rim. You can see a small propeller in the middle of each wheel. This is the wheel bolt. It just needs to come loose and the wheel falls off. This was once the technology for mounting rims.
good channel my friend FOS its amazing
@2:53 is a Group C 1982 Porsche 956 that raced at the 24 hour Le Mans. The car @9:17 is a 1966 to1970 Mark 2 Ford Cortina
I had that elf 6 wheel car for my old AFX track. Car was unbeatable!
Been going to FOS for about 15 years, one of the best run events ever and the cars are fantastic
I had the black Lotus with John Player Special livery as a scale model when I was very young. The Tyrell with the 4 front wheels makes perfect sense if you read why it was made like this. It helps cornering a lot because you can modify the steering angles .
I must be getting really old!!! I absolutely enjoyed that....and I've never ever wanted to watch racing of any sort! But I really love hearing fabulous engines! I am shocked though that you didn't recognise a mini. Am I that ancient?! I'm sure Ian you know the answer to that! LOL
Love how he nails the Sauber details - proper geezer 😂🔥
The grey thing at 15:44 holds the course record. It’s a fan car. It actually sucks itself to the track for huge downforce.
Big fan of the good wood , been tryin to introduce my buddies to it , classic. Classic classic
The little blue squat car was Hillman Imp it has a inline rear .998 cc engine so just under one litre. There was also a Singer imp also a van version..
And the Mini was a late Mini Clubman with about the same size engine...
The Sauber C9 was the first car to officially reach the 400km/h mark. That thing is kicking butts and taking names.
For something similar to this that's closer to home try the vintage races at Road America/Elkhart Lake. It used to be called the Brian Redman challenge or something. I think it's changed name since I lived there. The old cars do full on racing. The Can-Am cars are especially insane. Cars from all over the world though. F1, NASCAR....everything.
1:21
That's a 2022 WRC-car.
This year WRC switched from production chassis to silhouette cars due to the introduction of a mandatory hybrid system.
That first of the old racers, the big red one spitting fire, is called the Beast of Turin. It’s a Fiat, with a 28.5 litre engine. I believe the chassis was found in the Australian outback and Fiat agreed to help with the engine and box etc.
8:49 - F5000 from the early seventies - probably a Lola Chev T300/330
9:19 - Ford Lotus Cortina (1966?) with 1600cc Lotus Twin Cam engine.
14:25 - Tyrrell F1 car from 1976
The red and gold saloon car (sedan in american lol) was an Alan Mann racing ford cortina Lotus, had a 1600cc twin cam engine
The mini wasnt a cooper
It had the clubman front end on it so it was a 1275 GT from the mid to late `70s
The tiny angry sounding car was a hillman imp, rear engined rwd.
I have been to the festival a few times, you can literally see everything from new models to cars from the early 1900's. There have also been some of the Landspeed record cars there too (Thrust2 and Thrust SSC).
BTW the red FIAT that was spitting flames at the start held the land speed record at 132MPH in 1910
I'm going this year. 😃 Can't wait
Loving your vids. You should take a look at the Berg Cup hillclimbing series. Huge variety of cars, old and new. Cheers!
For a Nascar Fan. This guy actually knows a lot about euro cars.
Can't believe you got the rover, big up 👍
Great video! They are all original cars. It is kind of the point of the festival.
All of these are either ex race cars, prototype cars etc. They have a rolling car show and a lot of manufacturers have world premiere here on the Goodwood House Driveway. I live 20miles from Goodwood, need to get there next year! The Goodwood Revival is another one to check out!
Ur right it was a Rover! Well done. That was my 1st car 🚗 v8 3.5 that was Touring car trim. Goodwood goes on for a main week end but I think it's a week long thing, not 100% on that but it's a must!! You'd love there's a bit over everything on that little car b4 da Camaro was a Hillman Imp, one of the only car made buy a Scottish company! B4 number 9 I think the number was on the Camero.
I saw an old 911 on the way to work this morning. Gorgeous.
M1 Springwood, Queensland.
This is the Goodwood hillclimb track. That's why some of the cars have huge rear wings. Also, some of those old cars are used in classic race car racing events (like the one used by Rowan Atkinson himself), so they could have rebuilt engines.
2:57 That's a Group C LeMans prototype, same class as the Mazda 787B and the Sauber Mercedes C9 in 1:29.
4:03 That's one of 2 Fiat S76's in existence. Also called "The Beast of Turin." Has a 28-liter engine giving out 290hp.
7:29 That's an electric Ford Mustang Mach-e.
8:21 That's a Tatuus-Alfa Romeo F3 T-318, the spec car used in the Formula W series. Same spec as F3.
14:13: That could be a 70s Lotus F1 car with the legendary John Player Special livery.
14:32 That's the unique six-wheeled Tyrrell F1 car.
15:10 That's a Lotus Ford F1 car from the 60s with the Gold Leaf (cigarette brand) livery.
Plenty of 50s F1 cars, too--those hotdog bun-shaped cars.
In Australia most of the open wheel cars that compete in hillclimbs will just be stuck into the one class called Formula Libre. They may or may not have ever raced in a particular series, and the motors can range from motorcycle engines, up to highly tuned car motors including rotaries.
14:45 I may be wrong but I think it's a Tyrrell F1 from the mid 1970's. It only raced one season I think.
I went to Goodwood FOS for the first time this year! Was fabulous!!!
17:03 that toyota is from the BTCC, which is a very popular racing series over here in the UK
Ok gotcha thank you for that! I’ll have to look into the BTCC, bet they hit some great tracks… I know about and am fond of Brands hatch
I love watching BTCC. They race hard! Reminds me of the 2.0L touring car era we had in Oz. The variety is awsome, which we are definitely lacking in Supercars.
i can't encourage you enough to watch the full 2021goodwood timed shootout, they have their own youtube channel, and it comes with commentary, so you dont miss a thing about any car, plus you even learn a story or two about them
14:40 i an old prototype of an F1 to make the max traction in the torns
Exist even a prototype that have 4 wheels in the back for max power on the ground
That thing that you said was squatting down and looked fun to drive was a Hillman Imp. They were raced heaps when I was hanging around the tracks as a kid down here in the colonies. They had the engine in the boot. [trunk] England's answer to the Porsche 911 perhaps? Actually the engines they used were also used to run water pumps in fire trucks here in NZ.
Hillman Imp:Coventry Climax developed engine with all alloy engine and gearbox.Originally this Scots -built mini was plagued with under developed clutch,strange front wheel alignment(revised)and inadequate ,badly positioned air filter.Had to address these problems as an apprentice in the ‘60s.
The Goodwood hillclimb is totally scary....
The Tyrrell P34 six-wheeled F1 sure is a bizarre sight. But it saw some success in the latter half of the 1970s F1 races, including a double-victory in Swedish GP, when both cars of the Tyrrell team finished 1st and 2nd.
At 4:00 is the Fiat S76, later also known as Fiat 300 HP Record and nicknamed "The Beast of Turin" for a land speed record attempt.
Later ended up in Australia where it crashed and the remains got used for a sawmill. IIRC.
Thankfully restored, lots of vids on it.
Wow interesting history and cool Aussie connection! Thanks for that
Most of those are locked in private garages or museums and they're constantly maintained precisely so they're ready for events like this. There are private owners of race cars, especially rally classics like Escorts and Lancias.
F1 was less strict in the 70s. Teams could do the most outrageous mods to the car without facing penalty. Just like that 6-wheeled one. Theres also one with a fan in the back.
They are usually owned by collectors who race them in classic race meets and they would really look after them
The Six wheeler formula one was a Tyrell. The little car “”squatting down” was a Hillman Imp and a NASCAR turning right!!!!! Now I’ve seen everything. Lol.
So I've been to Goodwood a couple of times and to answer some your questions alot the cars are all original builds engines everything, the event takes place over a course of weekend days 1-2 are the days companies are showing off there new cars and prototypes, then they do a rally cross time trial and then it's hillclimb practice day 3 is a sorta parade day where every car goes up the 1.16 mile hill and they do a carshow event sorta like Pebbles Beach or Amelia Island day 4 final day is the Goodwood Festival of Speed Hillclimb start from prewar cars working its way up into the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, to the present race up the hill to claim the fastest time id recommend checking out the full 2019 hillclimb
That car with 6 wheels is a Tyrel P-34 F-1 car. And, yeah, it worked. They've won an F-1 race (Swedish Grand Prix 1976) with it. The idea behind it was that they could 'hide' the front wheels completely behind the front spoiler. This would give the car a better aerodynamic.
You should defiantly check out the head to head racing at Goodwood. All kinds of different classes. I have seen races with Ford Fairlanes and Mini Coopers in the same field.
Tyrrell P34 6 wheeler , i remember the stir that made when i watched its first run in F!
8:04 This is the Praga R1 EVO, it's from the Czech Republic and they also make civilian cars like the Praga R1R and Praga Bohema.
15:35 This is the Mcmurtry Speirling from the Great Britain.
09:18 min. Late 60s Lotus Cortina MK II. Nice, little Ford UK family car gone wild. It runs a watercooled straight-4 of 1560cc / 95.17ci popping out 109 hp to move a weight of 2009 lb (912 kg).
