Duane, did you catch that Mini smoking the front tires at the start? Great stuff! It amazes me how hard the cars are driven in European vintage racing. In part two they'll show the race involving the GT40s, Lola T70s, and a Corvette Grand Sport. Without giving away too much, there was a pretty bad pileup at the start of the race, and some expensive machinery got bent...knowing the English panel-beating industry they're probably all fixed by now.
The Victory by Design series is a nice extension of the original two shows (Ferrari and Porsche), which have been around for five years or so. They really go to lengths to get historically significant cars, do the research on them, and then drive the whee out of them...Alain de Cadenet knows how to pedal a car in a hurry. I see that the whole series is available on DVD...hmmmm...
