      @@DESTRAKON it was complete sensory overload. You can hear every part doing its job. The intake noise alone is worth whatever the car cost. Hearing it transition from cruising at partial throttle to wide open throttle acceleration is intoxicating. Partial throttle almost makes it sound like its gargling fuel, the engine a bit unhappy. Once the pedal goes down, it smooths out, and pins you to the seat until you run out of rpm. It's amazing!

      7 years ago when I did the first 289 head for a original gt40 or Cobra to be raced at Goodwood ....I: 1th , never heard of Goodwood and thought : 2th ..why race a 3 million dollar car ???? You can ruin it..
      Till I saw the races and thought : THATS RACING!!!!!!
      Some owners race an original car but almost never the original engine. Matching numbers is roughly 30 percent more value . Meaning if the original engine is ruined irreparable .......the car owner looses say 600k or so......

    This is the pinnacle of racing, no computers or driver assistance just man and machine. Just watching this you can see it is on the edge all the time with the driver pushing everything to the limit and only his skill and fast reactions to keep the car under control. They may not be the fastest cars now but they are still the most entertaining to watch by miles.

    this was a cinematic masterpiece... somehow capturing the actual feeling of the moment. No other automotive related media, whether it be movies, youtube, or anything else, has given me the visceral feeling of actually being in the car, on the track, like real life, until this. Incredible cinematography work!
    just got to the part where it's overcast and beginning to get wet. INCREDIBLE car control. You can really tell you're pushing the edge of grip both based against yourself and how you're driving, as well as based on the overtakes. Even with the spin, handled it beautifully, got back on, and didn't seem to damper the attack you have. That stint with the other white gt40 was NICE. Kept on them well and could tell they were feeling the push.
    Was the spin, from what it looked like, from you trying to downshift 4th to 2nd with a double rev match in between? Maybe it just hooked up a bit too much (coming from a drifting scene it's a great way to get lock-up but often just gives way too much snap oversteer)
    Last but not least, great dodge on the yellow gt40. Car seemed to actually handle the gravel pretty well!
    INSANE driving!
