Comments on my motor racing movies



Brands Hatch
1968 Race of the Champions
A non-championship F1 race.


Croft Rallycross '66 or '67 Poor quality but historically interesting.
"Awesome footage! Thanks a ton for sharing!"

Croft Sports cars in torrential rain
Multiple spins at a very wet race in 1967.
"An absolutely priceless piece of British motor racing history. I suppose you realise just what a treasure this is for racing historians!".


Kyalami
1971 South African Grand Prix:
Pits in practice, a complete lap by a BRM, practice, and the start of the race.
"breathtaking" "Nice slow-motion drift shots."

Remainder of the race.
Including spectacular slow motion shots of drifting F1 cars, and very close-up shots from the trackside and in pits.
"Some great rare footage there." "Excellent footage (all 3 parts), loving the slowmotion material :)"

1971 Kyalami 9 Hours sports car race.
"As always, excellent footage!"

1971 Rand Winter Trophy
A few laps, taken from the end of the main straight of an annual F1 race with every year, only two main contenders. This was a close one between two hard men, John Love and Dave Charlton, ending in tears. No damage except to John Love's ego.
"truly unbelievable footage! wow."


Monaco
1968 Monaco Grand Prix
Practice and race, from several points around the track, and in the pits.

A non-championship F1 race.
"Great, great, great!"

1967 Gold Cup Saloons
