I hope this hasn't been posted before, but anyway...
...there was a camera inside Mark Blundell's Nissan as he did his qualifying lap at Le Mans in 1990. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lMItc4cy8U |

Beautiful - simply beautiful. And the perfect retort to those who might harbour the notion that Le Mans could just be a race for GT cars.......
Shame it didn't get to run at least one full lap though...... |

With Sebring coming up soon, I thought this would be of interest. Back in 1965 my brother and I went to the New York Auto Show and they had this newsreel playing in one of the side rooms showing the 1965 Sebring 12 hours. It showed Jim Hall's Chaparral basically kicking the crap out of the best Ferrari and Ford had to offer. The film is split into 5 parts so here are the links:
Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPEy5NEXxo4 Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbSRz...eature=related Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yMvg...eature=related Part 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isdEm...eature=related Part 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVN-O...eature=related The engine sounds are recorded pretty well and the Chaparral sounds great. In 1965 Hall had two real shots at the international competition. He also kicked their butts at the 500 miler at Bridgehampton, Long Island that year. The Bridgehampton race was part of the World Sportscar Championship that year. My brother actually took me to see that one live before he headed into the Army the next year. Anyway, as a bonus, here is some footage of the 500 miler that I found on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUg-BK_4fgA DK |

This thread cannot just sit here dying.
As it turns out, the 917 from onboard sounds perfectly like in the Le Mans film. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbVct6TjNGU |

And what a way to resurrect it, thanks Victor. Ya know, every now and then, I put on the Le Mans, McQueen film, with the speakers turned right up, just to listen to those glorious sounds of the 917's in the early stages of the race. It drives the cook nuts. Some people just don't get it. |

I absolutely loved the Ford GT's this year in FIA GT1 as well as some of Westbrook's drives, and not to mention the Interlagos circuit.
