    I agree with all the comments about this racing being massively more entertaining than current F1, but the commentators and their merry style (totally absent in today’s F1) also bring a huge level of fun to the event. Awesome work! 👏🏻

    • @jfv65
      @jfv65 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      agreed. These cars already had twin overhead cams and twin spark ignition in an aluminium head. (NORD engine) The chassis wasn't very remarkable because it still had a live rear axel. But it's a light car so pretty fast.
      The Lotus Cortina was much the same: twin cam, live rear axel.
      The car i expected to be much faster is that BMW TISA. That car has a much more modern suspention, McPherson up front and independent trailing arms setup in the back. Just like the first M3 e30.
      The 1.8L engine of that TISA has overhead cam in alu head and twin DCOE carbs
      I expected that car to be much faster tbh.

    • @alfaholic3
      @alfaholic3 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      @@jfv65 The Alfa has the better suspension design.
      The BMWs trailing arm rear suspension allows a lot of inconsistency in the camber and toe settings during its range of motion while the Alfa holds true. The front double wishbone of the Alfa allows much better negative camber gain during cornering among other significant benefits.
      The reason BMW used that suspension design and many modern cars do is packaging and cost.

      Well, exactly. I race a 1969 Alfa Giulia which is, essentially, the same as the 33 car (though a fraction of the price). There’s not a part of that car I can’t repair myself. F1 is a totally different challenge and utterly spectacular for it because it’s a pinnacle of technology and human performance. That’s what, for me, makes F1 entertaining. This was great racing because it’s cars we could all get in and drive and it was fun and we could more easily appreciate it

    I've been watching motor racing since 1958 and it's always been the saloons that offer the best spectator value all the way down the years. Seeing Dickie Attwood in this race brings back all sorts of racing memories. I can remember seeing Graham Hill and Roy Salvadori in MK2 Jaguars and the great Jim Clark in a Lotus Cortina. I can remember the advent of the racing Mini Coopers and how they changed everybody's perception of small cars and front wheel drive in racing.

    • @jcgabriel1569

      Actually, the modern historic racing scene had pretty sizeable downsides...
      Yes, there were some modern drivers joining in, and some proved to be very quick in them (like Frank Stippler, Tom Kristensen, Kenny Brack, and others). But the quality of the grids deteriorated to some extent...
      Ten years ago, you'll see a sizeable contingent of Ferraris, Maseratis, Alfas racing in different races at the Revival, and some even tends to have quick drivers and we're always front runners, giving a nice variety in the racing.
      Now most of those cars were gone from the grids. As their prices goes up, most ended up in the hands of people who never race them, let alone use them...

    Isn't it somewhat UNFAIR with the big American Muscle against the smaller UK cars ?

    Romain Dumas in the big American Yank Tank! 427ci of monster power!

      It could probably fit 3 or more Minis in the boot and they would only be adding 10% to the mass of that "Yank Tank". Nobody was game to try and overtake it because of the gravity well it creates. I mean surely they would end up stuck to the side and lack the power to achieve escape velocity, and un-stick themselves. Probably why it's called a Ford 'Galaxy'. 🙄

      7 litre vs 1.6 litre and the 1.6 almost nicked it,

    As a long time Alfa Romeo owner, I can say that this represents why Alfas are different from other brands. It always gives everything it has to give and encourages you to take advantage of it. Amazing race. Its not the winning, its the pleasure of the race that counts. Other cars are machines (with exceptions) Alfas are alive.

      I also owned an Alfa, a 1750 GTV and I concur they do feel alive. Cant' comment on the later ones as I hav'nt driven any of those.

    Great video of cars of my day. My favourite is the MK1 Cortina’s, had three in my life, a Cooper S also. Would love to have seen a Triumph Vitesse. Very mismatched engine size but an edge of the seat experience. AWESOME 👏🏻 👍

    This is the best racing I've seen in years. It makes current F1 look like a joke.

    Watching that big Galaxie put the boots to those little lighter cars was a thing of beauty.
