You can never have enough of these . Ah the sound of that BMW engine never does get old.

Thanks to a day off work sick I found this film of Group C racing at Brands Hatch in 1984. Really gives a great impression of what group C was really like back then when we had 2 world championship races in the UK each year |

Look at how packed those grandstands are, and tell me Darren Cox is wrong when he says motorsport is in massive decline...

If you have a spare 21 minutes this is quite fun. It's Leh Keen in a 1974 911 at the 2014 LM Classic. It's really interesting to see how much time a pro can make up on braking and cornering compared to some of the weekend warriors who leave him for dead on the straights in their 935s and prototypes etc.
It also has a great camera position, so not only can you see exactly what he is doing, you can also see what's coming up behind in the right hand wing mirror. And it ends with some night running in the wet, during a practice section, which is pretty hairy, especially approaching Mulsanne. PS: not too sure about the kneecap-crushing roll cage though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lykziXDfQVo |

Great share! Can't believe how racey that was. That clip also demonstrates the crown on the Mulsanne excellently.

Le Mans 1982 and the 956. I'm admittedly biased, but this has to be one of the best videos beyond in-car 956 that I have seen. It's in German and includes some development work in the beginning.

a weird one on the Bugatti track in 1974
Not the coolest, but can we recognise (or not) Jean Rondeau at 0:32 ?
www.youtube.com/watch?v=8K9mf9M9cmE I know, the Citröen GS wasn't a sportcar. |

True, it's no sportscar, neither is it a GT but boy is this thing spectacular!
